Content Management System

With a website based on a Content Management System (CMS) the style and layout of the site are built in the same way but this time links are built in to tie the page content to the CMS application. Using no more that your standard web browser (Internet Explorer) content can be then added and edited separately by the site’s owner.

No knowledge of HTML is required and no special software. The job of editing the site can be spread over several people and if necessary, each person can be limited to editing only the section that they are responsible for.
