Web Content Management Systems (WCMS)

Why CMS?

You want to update your website quickly without versed, professional help? Then you need a content management system.

Without a content management system websites with a lot of content are hardly update- and maintainable in an economic way and if you want your web presence to be multilingual then you hardly have any other option.

 

What is a content managment sytem?

A CMS is a system to mantain and update content. It is to note that design and content are strictly seperated in this case. In layman's terms this means that the content editor doesn't need to know anything about the underlying technology of the website to maintain it's content. A short non-technical introduction into the system is all that is needed to use it.

 

What will we do for you?

We will realize your website using a suited CMS. If you already have a existing web presence or establish a new one is here not an issue. Here we prefer the products TYPO3 and TYPOlight. Contrary to their similar sounding names these two systems have nothing in common. Wie create fitting templates and configure the system and required extensions for you. Of course we also add first content for you so you don't have to. If needed we also create the first user and user groups and set up the workflow for you.

 

How do you profit from this?

Through usage of a content management system tailored to your needs you reduce the operation expenses for your website. You create, publicize and administrate your content on your own. This of course in turn reduces your investment in time and money.

 

TYPO3 or TYPOlight - or maybe something else entirely?

This decision is influenced by many factors. Of course we can tell you if and which CMS you need.
