WHAT IS A CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?

A content management system or CMS is a tool that allows its users to create, edit and publish website data, such as text, images, slideshows, blogs or video within a constrained set of rules. This is different from a traditional static website in that it provides its users the ability to update or modify their site without the danger of inadvertently altering code. Traditional websites are impossible to edit and maintain without prior training, making them difficult to update and far more expensive than a website built through a CMS.
Clients using a CMS need no knowledge of coding processes such as HTML, HTML 5, CSS or Javascript to manage the content of their websites. A CMS allows you to have control over your data without any prior programming experience. Having a website created through a Content Management System provides you with the freedom to update your site at any time without the expense of relying on a trained professional.
