Management Systems

Free Content Management Systems



One of the most common problems of yesterday was keeping up consistency in all of
your web pages. On any given page, you could find issues with broken links, improperly
formatted text, badly devised HTML (which could easily block communications with
search engines) and even complex issues of canonicalization (or bad domain pages). It
was a headache for sure, and this type of mess drove some companies to pay
thousands of dollars to a webmaster to take care of all web related issues.
Times have changed! What Windows and Mac OS did for operating systems, now CMS
(Content Management Systems) are doing for building a website. WordPress, Joomla
and Drupal are the top quick build sites and they go one step further than the old Front
Page Express tool (or MS Word), which used WYSIWYG technology. With CMS, you
don’t simply cut and paste…you standardize the entire site by way of a customizable
template. You can customize, add or change with ease, and without having to
individually create pages.
Besides convenience and, of course the fact that CMS is completely free, the second
best reason to create a CMS generated site is because of traffic-generation features.
For example, installing a WordPress site provides these advantages:
$You can automatically insert META tags just by typing;
$You can easily name page titles and highlight subtitles, both crucial for SEO;
$Auto canonicalization and link creation of all pages;
$Auto plugins for search engine submission;
$Auto integration of your site to your other pages (like social network pages); and
Automatic conversion from website to mobile website.
Lastly, using WordPress for creating an official website or a blog site can benefit you
because of the site’s huge popularity overall, and their link popularity. Both of these
factors are important in establishing high SERPs.
Using link positive associations for your site, like the top 10 in the world caliber
WordPress site, can only help you, whereas staying in the virtual ghetto of a small
webhosting company using only a simple WYSIWYG editor will not do you any favors.
Free content management tools will make it easy for you to create, save, edit and
publish new content for sales copy (your pages) as well as for posting content.
