CMS Site Development

CMS Sites are becoming ever more popular as site owners strive to take control of their web content and negate the need to have a paid webmaster on hand to administer changes to site design and content.

As the volume of new content added to the web continues to spiral, a number of Content Management Systems (CMS) have come to the fore, greatly simplifying the process of publishing new content to your site.

Much more versatile than the name CMS (content management system) suggests, CMS sites developed by FX siteworks on open source platforms (i.e. WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Typo3 etc) are customised to suit the needs of the user. Our overall aim when delivering a CMS site to a client is to hand over the finished product for the client to manage themselves, 100% (or as near to it as possible), without a need to retain our services for the purposes of ongoing site changes. We regularly develop widget, add-on, plug-in and similar custom-built features, which allow clients to manage the dynamic aspect of their sites via a user-friendly interface – a process that would otherwise involve delving deep into reams of complex code.

If your site demands that you add or change your content on a regular basis, or if you have a number of people contributing content, then you stand to reap maximum returns from a custom-built CMS site.

At FX Siteworks, we have extensive experience in implementing and managing CMS sites for wide variety of clients.

Typically, tasks we perform in CMS implementation include:

• Migration to completely database-driven site engines
• Production of customisable themes and layouts
• Customization of the user-interface – allowing site owners with little or no HTML experience to add/manage their own content going forward
• Integration of 3rd party products within existing CMS. i.e. Ad banner managers, E-commerce add-ons, secure access partitioning, polls/surveys (per page), image galleries, flash elements etc
