Content Management Systems
A content management system (CMS) allows you to edit the content of your web site yourself.
They are so easy to use, no technical involvement is needed by you, and if you need help, we provide full training and support.
They are integrated into your web site and can be customized to allow you to update or edit whatever aspects you like. They are generally used for sites that need to be updated regularly, eg with latest news or price information.
The general process is to click Edit Page which will take you to the editable items for that page, then click Save Updates once you have made your changes. This will return you to the CMS home page where you can then View Page to check that your changes have been successful.
Each page has a general structure, the contents of which can be updated by you.
Most of the CMS pages look like the page below, they contain a text box for each of the updateable fields:
The blue and pink areas in the content management system above represent the associated text areas in the web page below.
You can also edit the style of the content and add links within the text, plus upload new images, articles, etc.

- display special offers, eg for the week ahead
- display whats on/special events that visitors may be interested in
