Content Management System (CMS) A (web) Content Management System allows a number of people to maintain a website using a simple web-browser-based interface (instead of manually authoring webpages). Content Management Systems generally consist of a number of templates corresponding to standard ‘types’ of information, e.g. Event Promotion Staff Profiles Press Releases Product Listings Privileges Users of the system may be assigned specific privileges to restrict the types of change they can make to the website. For example; the communications manager might only be able to add and edit press releases; changes to product pricing can only be made by the product manager. Examples of CMS WordPress Joomla *Disclaimer: After years of faithful development with Joomla, I have finally made the switch to WordPress. Like a lost friend, I now relegate Joomla to specific use instances, and recommend that all my clients choose WordPress CMS over Joomla (or any other CMS).

Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP)* *Originally "Personal Home Page" PHP is an open-source, server-side scripting language. The language can be used to write programs (routines) that output code. When a webpage using PHP is accessed, routines generate the markup to be downloaded to the browser. PHP can also be used to connect to a database; to retrieve, add or update content. This makes PHP an ideal language for creating large-scale websites. A single PHP template can be written to retrieve and display all database records, for example product listings. Each product webpage is generated using the same routines--conditionally showing availability, price, shipping costs, etc.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Search Engine Optimization is a process or strategy for creating webpage content to improve a website’s relevance ranking on a Search Engine Results Page ( SERP ). Factors influencing webpage ranking In the early days of the web, Search Engine Optimization involved carefully crafting metadata, setting up link farms and building reciprocal links to improve a website’s popularity--Google, for one, factors the number of links that point to a webpage (incoming links) when calculating relevance ranking (PageRank). As the search industry has matured, additional factors have come into play including: Invisible content, such as alternative text for images Webpage filename/address (URL) Syndication of content through blogs Use of structural markup Paid placement such as Google’s AdWords service Search Engine Optimization starts by learning about the language that potential customers are likely to use when talking about a product or service--they are likely to the same language when entering words into a search engine.
