What's a CMS and Why Do I Need One?
What's a CMS?

A CMS is short for Content Management System.

Simply it means a system you can use to control the text, images, links and structure of your website.  Here at Toolkit Websites we've created our own, known as the Toolkit to make updating the content of your website as easy as possible.

It's a proprietary system created by our in house team of developers that are working constantly to introduce new features and make it quick and easy to use. As a Toolkit Websites customer, you will always have access to the latest version as part of your subscription.

You can use the Toolkit to make updates to your website 24/7 from any computer with an internet connection on a monthly, weekly or even daily basis. Making real time changes to your site is simple, fast and intuitive, and requires no knowledge of web design or computer coding.

With The Toolkit, you no longer deal with the high costs, delays and inaccuracies that come with relying on a third party to edit your site’s content. Your website is split up into areas that you can edit with the Toolkit and areas that our creative team specifically design to your requirements.




Why do you need a CMS?

These days if you don't have a CMS driven website you are at a disadvantage to your competitors. Having a CMS driven website allows you to add new products and services quickly and publish updates with a single click. With a CMS your website will always be up to date.

If you want to compete on the major search engines, regularly adding new content to your site is critical. One thing that will never change at Google (or any search engine) is hunger for new information.

Search engines favour sites that update their content regularly because they want to provide the public with the most current information on a topic. With the Toolkit , you can affordably maintain a dynamic presence for your site, and obtain and sustain high rankings for keywords pertinent to your practice areas.
