CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (CMS)

We’re pretty handy when it comes to web development, but we appreciate that not everyone has a passion for pixels and HTML code like we do.

At Studio Republic we keep content management simple: you won’t find convoluted HTML, boring templates, badly written machine code, or confusing user interfaces on any of our customer websites. Getting CMS wrong can be an instant turn-off for search engines, losing your site valuable visitor traffic.

A good CMS can make it much easier to manage your site because it lets you create, edit and generally control content without needing any specialist technical know-how.

Importantly, we’ll keep things simple. With our CMS solutions nothing is baffling or intimidating, so you stay firmly in control. And if along the way we think you could do with extra CMS functions, we’ll tell you; things such as:

Enews integration
News manager
Vacancy manager
Password-protected members-only areas
Guest books
Blogs
Discussion forums

We can also write bespoke functions that are just for your site.

Which CMS should you choose?

We have experience of a number of CMS platforms and each have their strengths and weaknesses. WordPress is a major player and great for blogging, but it's not easy to use as a content management system. Our personal favourite and one we recommend to all of our clients is MODX - we explain why we're so keen to develop websites in MODX here. In fact, we like MODX so much, we're part of their partner program.
