What is a CMS?

A content management system (CMS) helps people create, manage, and publish digital content on websites. It provides an easy-to-use interface that allows users to add or remove pages, edit content, upload images, and create new pages without necessarily needing to know how to code.

Some reasons to use a CMS for your website include:

  1. Easy Management: With a CMS, you can easily manage your website's content without having to know how to code.

  2. Consistent Branding: A CMS ensures that your website has a consistent look and feel by providing templates and themes that you can use to create a cohesive design.

  3. Security: With a CMS, you can also control access to your website and limit the actions that users can perform, minimizing the risk of data breaches or hacking attempts.

  4. Scalability: A CMS allows you to scale your website as your business grows, with the ability to add new pages, features, and functionality.

All Small Sites websites are designed using a CMS called Squarespace. Once your Small Sites designer finishes setting up your site, Squarespace makes it easy for you to manage your content on your own, saving you thousands in maintenance labor hours!
