Content Management Basics |
A Content Management System or CMS is a software tool that simplifies and automates the process of authoring, editing and maintaining the content of a website. Set-up and configuration of the website and CMS will still be completed by a web developer, however ongoing content updating, ownership and maintenance can be devolved out to non web-expert personnel. This can have significant benefits in terms of reducing the cost of ownership of online services, as everyday web maintenance tasks do not have to be outsourced to third parties such as an external web developer.
Content in the context of the World Wide Web, is information that is displayed or made available on a website. This may include (but is not limited to), web pages, images, video, animation, Word documents, PDF files and information stored in databases that are accessed from a website. In the past, management of information required specialist knowledge and technical skills. Today, a Content Management System can be used to enable non-technical personnel to perform tasks.
In order to get their jobs done, members of a website team have different needs to access elements of the website. A sophisticated web content management system must provide great latitude in allowing assignment of permissions. For example some users might need to have permission to create content but not publish it. Others may have access to edit existing content but not create new content and a very few members have access to delete content.
In addition, when content is workflow-enabled the process is even more sophisticated and secure. For example, when a newspaper author finishes an article, the editor is alerted via email or sms that the story is waiting for review and approval. Once editing is done, the story is either sent back to the author with comments or is passed along to the legal review team and so on.
