What is a CMS?

A Content Management System (CMS) acts as a central library for your websites. Storing text, images, documents, and everything else organised for easy access.

Because content and design are kept separate it makes managing and updating websites simpler. Content can be altered without having to update individual web pages, just as the look of a webpage can be changed without having to re-flow the content.
