Posted by Fran Jeanes in Web Design May 14th, 2009 | 4 Comments
With a web Content Management System [CMS] you can create your own web page, pages, or an entire site. We know that different web design projects have different requirements, as each project is custom, but if you want the freedom of editing your own website then we have a solution for you: Joomla CMS.
With Joomla CMS you don’t have to run software on your computer to create your own web pages, so there’s no need to install editing software like Dreamweaver or an FTP client to transfer your files to a server. Joomla is installed on your server and you can use it by simply logging into your website and editing your text.

Easy Web Editing With a Content Management System
Posted by Fran Jeanes in Web Design Nov 6th, 2008 | No CommentsBack in the old days of the Internet regular websites cost a small fortune and with the advent of editing software the floodgates of instant web designers flew open. This can be seen as a good thing or a bad thing: Designers wish their designs would stay as they created them, their clients wish they could save money by editing their website themselves.

What is a Content Management System?
A Content Management System, or CMS for short, is software that runs on your web host’s server that allows content [images, text, video e.t.c.] to be added with ease.

Over the years a few standouts have held their own and carved a position out for themselves as reputable, scalable products. Joomla and Drupal are great choices but the learning curve for non-developers is steep. (more…)
