The myWeb content management system is an innovative web tool which allows you to edit and update your own web site easily and quickly.

A content management system (CMS) is a piece of software that stores and manages information using a database. In the case of a Web content management system, it is used to store and manage the text and images which comprise your web pages.

A CMS allows many people to contribute content to a website and to do it without prior expertise of web programming languages or HTML (which is what web pages are written in). CMS software is typically installed on the computer where your website is hosted and does not required any special software to be installed on the computer of the person maintaining the website. It is this aspect which means a Content Management System-managed website can be modified from any PC which is connected to the Internet.

So a CMS helps you by simplifying  the maintenance of websites, allowing the content on it to be directly added, updated and deleted by non-technical staff.  By freeing you from the technical responsibility of your website solution you are able to turn your attention to building your business using the Internet as simply another channel to reach your potential customers.

 You may need a Content Management System (CMS) if any of the following are true about your organisation:

• You have no web publishing expertise inhouse
• You don't have the time to become an HTML guru and maintain yourself
• Your site is large or complex
• Your web pages need to be updated frequently
• You need to be able to make website changes rapidly in response to competitor activity, product updates, new releases etc 
• You are incurring ongoing costs from web developers for even making simple changes to your website

A CMS draws together information from different sources to create a web page. There are three main elements that make up a CMS.

• A Template that defines where the content will appear on a page
• A Style Sheet that makes the content look consistent
• A Database that stores the content

Each of the three elements has a different and important role in delivering a web page.
