Savannah Web Experts — E2 Marketing — often comes up against the question, “What is a CMS?”. Before answering that question, it’s important to first understand what is NOT a CMS. One of the most frustrating things abut having a third party create your website is the lack of control you have over the finished project. If you have ever attempted to hire someone in Savannah to build your website, you may find that, once the website is finished you are not able to update the content. What happens if you have an important announcement to make on your website? Or you need to change information that is no longer relevant or if you have to change a picture? You have to go through the person that designed the website.

The problem with this process is that the person that designed your website may require more money for each update. Or, you may lose contact with your web designer. Sometimes it will take days for your web designer to make the changes you need, rendering them irrelevant especially with time sensitive updates.

Enter CMS. An acronym for Content Management System, a CMS allows the website owner (that’s you!) have full access and control of a finished website. With very little training, the Savannah web experts at E2 Marketing will be able to teach you how to update any aspect of your website easily with little or no knowledge of code.

Open source blog platforms such as WordPress, MovableType, Drupal and Joomla can be used to create incredibly impactful websites that are easily maintainable by you as the owner. However, the Savannah web experts at E2 Marketing can also create 100% customizable CMS to fit your needs by developing it from scratch, which means without using a an open source program such as those listed previously.
