Web Design and Content Management
The knowledge distribution has also led to shift in demand to
the content management systems which facilitate content updates.
These updates have become immensely necessary to keep the
consumer's interest for visiting the web site again and again
and also to keep the consumer abreast with latest happenings
regarding the company and its products and services.
CMS or Content Management Systems are becoming more and more
popular with web design organizations. They have come to realize
that CMS is the future of web site design and may be left behind
in the industry if they do not begin offering CMS services.
CMS does not in any way spell doom to web designers. CMS
certainly saves the company's time it spends on web design and
allows tem to put more efforts into marketing. CMS gives the
company the freedom it needs by providing them with an ability
to update the site when needed, not when convenient. CMS also
saves the company's costs by not having to run to the web
designer every time an update is needed.
Any typical CMS consists of the following features - Provides an
interface to Add/remove/edit pages. - Provides easy interface to
update content of each page. - Capability to add or remove
images where needed. - Interface to update contact information.
- Display updated listings (ex: Mortgage and interest rates). -
Facilitates addition of news on the industry everyday.
Inference
A web design organization should seriously consider offering CMS
to their clients to prepare for the future. It is still at a
nascent stage, so if a web design and development organization
is considering developing a customised CMS and marketing it,
they can still see success in the near future. More information
