Title: What Are The Important Features Of Content Management System?


1
What Are The Important Features Of Content
Management System?
2
Content Management System
  • Content management is central to your website and
    business.
  • CMS allows for easy storage and gathering of
    information. The system allows for masses of
    people to share files and information while
    allowing for control over all data.

3
Features Of Content Management System
  • The 7 very important features of content
    management system are as follows
  • Clean URLs
  • RSS Feed
  • SEO Control
  • Design Independence
  • Different Tiers of User Access
  • Speed And Performance
  • Incorporate Plugins

Clean URLs
  • This element goes hand in hand with SEO control,
    but is important enough to also list on its own.
    Check out the URLS the CMS creates and look at a
    few things
  • Theyre not too long,
  • Theyre English and could be understood by a
    person,
  • They can be customized if need be.
  • Too many CMS generate sloppy URLs, which ruin
    any effort at optimization.

5
RSS Feed
  • The CMS should automatically generate RSS feeds
    from all of the sections of the site. Most
    people tend to just make sure the Blog can
    generate a feed, but its important to ensure
    that feeds can be generated from anywhere. This
    feature is critical when trying to push the
    latest news to the homepage, automatically pull
    new media onto your Facebook page, and more.

6
SEO Control
  • One of the biggest benefits of a CMS is that it
    allows your organization to do the hardest part
    of SEO on your own create content. However,
    its also important that the site give you
    control over other important SEO data, such as
    meta descriptions and title tags. To fully
    optimize your content and draw in leads, you need
    to have access to all of your SEO elements.

7
Design Independence
  • The system needs to be accommodating to any type
    of design, as design remains an important aspect
    of visitors decision-making process on whether
    to buy what youre selling, contact your company,
    or browse through your content. Dont
    underestimate the importance of design many
    systems restrict designers/developers and make
    them design for the system rather than for the
    brand.

8
Different Tiers of User Access
  • A super admin needs to be able to delegate
    different roles to other administrators. You
    dont want admins (or interns) poking around in
    areas of the site that arent relative to them or
    contain more sensitive information. A system
    should let you control what content
    administrators can see and update.

9
Speed and Performance
  • This one seems to get underestimated by a lot of
    people, but is a huge deal. Ive been bogged
    down in some systems where it takes several
    minutes to just get to the page I want to edit.
    This sloth should be a deal breaker. If a CMS
    cant perform its main duty speedily and
    reliably, then thats typically just an indicator
    of things to come with that system and company
    not to mention its really annoying and
    inefficient

10
Incorporate Plugins
  • The system should have demonstrated its ability
    to scale through plugins. No base CMS will solve
    every possible website problem, and you should be
    wary of anything that claims it does. However,
    the CMS needs to be open enough that your
    developers or the CMS company can incorporate
    plugins that can help improve and scale your site
    as needed over time.
