Accessible Content Management System ( CMS )
We wanted our clients to have the option of updating & maintaining their own web sites. With this in mind we have developed an extremely powerful, feature-rich Content Management System which produces accessible, standards compliant code, enables full search engine optimisation and still allows for completely flexible website design.
The CMS uses a 'What You See Is What You Get' (WYSWYG) interface. You simply type in your content and let the software do the work for you. With 'One-Click' editing on every page updating your website is as easy as 1..2..3. It couldn't be any easier.
You can manage your website from anywhere, e.g. from the comfort of your home, at work or even while you are sitting in the train station with your laptop and a wireless connection. In fact you can use it anywhere you have access to a PC and an internet connection. No additional software is required and the CMS can be used by as many people as you want.
The WD Content Management System has been built with accessibility in mind, from the ground-up, making it the most standards compliant and accessible CMS on the market. It's also one of the most affordable! Prices start at £579*.
Benefits
Some of the many benefits in using the WDCMS.
- You can update, change & edit your website content & images.
- As and when you wish without the expense of a web designer.
- Can be used by one person or a team - no need to buy new software for each person who updates the site.
- No matter where you are, as long as you have access to a PC or laptop with an internet connection.
- Search engine optimised pages.
- Allows the input of unique title, description and keyword tags for each page. A must have for search engine optimisation.
- Separates 'presentation' from 'content' which dramatically reduces the amount of coding the search engines have to go through, making it easier for them to access your content.
- With CSS you can ensure your content is 'seen' by the search engines before images and navigation as well as controlling the order in which items download onto the PC.
- SEO friendly URLs. Tell the software what you want the web address of your page to be.
