What Is A Content Management System ?

Wikipedia defines a content management system as “a computer software system for organizing and facilitating collaborative creation of documents and other content, especially for loading to a website.”

Since the beginning of modern business practices generations have relied on filing systems to store information and to locate and retrieve that information when required.

Desktop computer filing systems have followed manual filing systems. We have file folders, filing cabinets, directories, registers etc so why would the Internet be any different ?

The fact is that your website should be organized in such a manner that you or your colleagues are able to upload and source documents, images, media content and everything else in a quick and logical manner. This is doubly important for your clients.

You should also be able to protect certain documents and limit their access to selected parties whilst providing different levels of privileges for various individuals or groups of users.

So How Do We Build A Content Management System ?

Onlineassist4u builds web solutions based on one of the most popular content management systems – WordPress.

WordPress is used by large organisations such as Coca Cola and the New York Times. It provides a stable, standards compliant and powerful platform for a website / content management solution.

WordPress, in combination with commercially available ‘plugins’ and, most importantly, Onlineassist4u’s experience and knowledge in the implementation of these products can deliver you a robust, secure yet user friendly content management system all for a fraction of the cost you will pay elsewhere.
