Content Management Systems (CMS) are a necessity, and not just for e-commerce sites. CMS streamlines website management through multiple user support and different permission levels. Depending on their permission level, users can edit or modify the website’s content, data, and applications.
There are four elements that represent an effective Content Management System platform: dependable, flexible, cost-effective, and highly discoverable.
Which is the Right CMS Platform for your Website?
Popular CMS include WordPress, Magento, and Joomla. Most of these CMS are open-source and offer unique solutions and toolsets depending on their specializations. WordPress is perhaps the most user-friendly CMS, powering more than 30 percent of websites around the world. Joomla has a steep learning curve but it has extensive capabilities that are highly customizable. Magento is the first choice of many for e-commerce CMS. It also has a learning curve but has extensive features available out-of-the-box.
Some factors you should consider when researching CMS platforms are:
The Open API Search engine-friendliness of the platform
The time you are willing to expend on CMS development and maintenance
User-friendliness of the platform, and if there’s an easy navigational structure
The size and range of capabilities of your website
The flexibility of the CMS and its capability to scale for future enhancements
Out-of-the-box capabilities (especially plugins)
Cost of monthly plans (including hosting fees)
