5 Crucial Things An Ideal CMS Should Avoid
CMS, short for Content Management System is the
backbone of websites, and there are no two
opinions about it. You cant consider website
management as a set-it-and-forget-it type of
task unless you dont care about your users and
business. Having a CMS at your disposal allows
you to carry out the desired changes within your
site whenever you want. Maybe you plan to update
your old content, create new articles, or just
consider

putting some eye-arresting images, a good CMS
always comes in handy. But this isnt just what
defines a CMS and there is more to it. To be
clear, using a reliable CMS is one thing, and
getting your expectation met through it is
another. Now, you may ask what I mean by this?
See when you are using a CMS for your website
its great for the moment and you can expect it
to be as good in the future as it is now. But
there are times when you face issues with it and
you want to switch your content to another
platform. It isnt necessary that the CMS you
have used when building your site will be your
permanent choice. Maybe the current platform
doesnt seem suitable to you anymore or you want
to experiment with a new one, youll definitely
be better off with a new CMS. What usually
happens is that some CMSs dont allow you to
export your design and content elsewhere when you
want. In that case, you start looking for
third-party plugins to extract your site from
the source. Though this issue is solvable, you
dont want to get into this intricate situation
every time you change your mind. In this blog,
we have compiled a list of five things a modern
CMS should stop doing. But before you get to
work, I would like to take the opportunity to
introduce you to a market-leading web d esign
company in Los Angeles - SFWP Experts. Well-known
for its supportive attitude for clients, this is
the perfect agency you can hire to get your
website redesign and maintenance work easily
done. Not only that, but they also have
experience with website optimization and online
marketing too that are focused on growing your
traffic and conversions. With that out of focus,
lets take a deep dive into 5 important things a
solid CMS should stop doing right away.

  • 5 Things A Good CMS Should Stop Doing
  • Generating Inaccessible Codes
  • With the evolution of CMSs around, each user who
    utilizes it has certain expectations. Most of
    them want the markup to be well-structured, and
    content to be easily accessible. However, there
    are some content editing UIs out there that don't
    do things the right way. We understand the
    slight deviation from the standards and being
    completely not in connection with it. Most
    people who use an editor UI for their content
    creation places a lot of trust in them. So,
    there should be some software that can convert
    our text and images into clear, and access codes.
    Even though its not perfect, it should be in
    the form thats consumable.
  • In case, you are looking for an agency that can
    create your website using clean and accessible
    codes, partnering with our Los Angeles web
    design company will be a good decision. Seasoned
    designers and developers at our workplace have
    plenty of experience writing error-free codes in
    most programming languages out there.
  • Offering Cluttered Dashboard
  • For most of us, working in an unorganized
    environment is often annoying. What if we are
    given a cluttered desk to do our job? Thats
    most likely to resist us to think creatively and
    concentrate solely on the assigned task. The
    case with the CMS dashboard is more or less the
    same.

Once you start installing the needed themes and
plugins and dont stop, your WordPress dashboard
is filled with a lot of notifications. This
hinders you to concentrate on the core
activities of your business and you want to get
rid of it ASAP. This is one area where WordPress
authors need to work and make the dashboard more
user-friendly. Not just WordPress, there should
be strict guidelines for all CMSs to provide a
clutter-free dashboard to their users. Do you
want to have a clutter-free website too? Well,
thats an easy job for the design and Wordpress
developer team deployed at our Los Angeles web
design company. Just because we have been
creating minimalistic web designs for years, you
can count on us to turn your unorganized site
into the organized one within your expected
date. 3. Not Allowing Content Exportation Going
with the common notion, it is not necessary that
the CMS using which you initially created your
website will remain unchanged down the road.
Situations may emerge when you want to move to
another platform for the reasons best known to
you. In such scenarios, you have to go through
difficult roads like exploiting third-party
tools to fetch your website or copy and paste
source code out of your web browser. Its just
because some CMSs just dont allow you to take
your website to the platform you want and still
you want to do it. Conclusively, it cant be
treated as a good behavior at all and there
should be rules in place that promote content
portability, be it in the form of CSV, JSON, or
XML file.

Are you considering shifting your website to
WordPress from some other platform? We can help
you do that in one swoop if you work with our
Los Angeles web design company. We think we are
the most suitable partner for you to carry out
this job since we spent a multitude of years
dealing with the design, development, and
transfer of websites. 4. Providing Incompatible
Features Updates are consistent for almost all
software available today and CMSs are not an
exception. When a new version of some software
or application is launched, generally bugs are
fixed, security holes are repaired, and new
features are loaded. These are things you factor
in when considering a CMS for your website and
also expect it to be stable in the long
run. Not only that, but you also want features
to be compatible with other elements and make
sure it doesn't damage your site or affect the
functionality. Because once an application grows
in popularity for breaking websites, you wont
want to take it in use no matter whatsoever.
Therefore, CMSs should take this issue into
consideration and work on making their product
more approachable for users. Is your website
getting fewer visitors? Maybe it is lacking a
user-centric interface and features, having which
will boost your traffic rapidly. We can help you
make your site user-focussed if you allow us to
work on your project. Nothing much, you just
have to drop us an email explaining the problem
you are facing and then the team at our Los
Angeles web design company will get in touch
with you.

5. Not Able To Communicate With
Users Communication is the key to build a strong
relationship, no matter which business you are
in. Though a content management system may have
powerful features, if users are not informed
about how to use it they will not be able to take
its advantage. Similarly, if CMS developers at
the back-end wont know what their users want
and need, they wont get a clear idea of what
features to add and which error to fix. The
point Im trying to make is that direct
communication is essential for user support and
community creation. Many CMS providers fail to
provide that, but if its done rightly many
robust relationships can be built. Conclusion T
