Considering CMS

After analysing the client's and user requirements, I'm considering adding some content management systems in the website I'm going to build. The client I'm going to build the website for would like to be able to update articles and content periodically. Therefore, I'm now considering to build the website using wordpress as the content management system. I need to do further research on which one is more suitable for my client's needs. It has to be easy to use and user friendly.

I'm starting to get worried that I may not have enough time to do the research and build the website at the same time. I wish I have realised this earlier, I would've been more prepared.

Anyway, I've updated the draft version of my Macro and Micro Analysis to include WordPress as one technology consideration.

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. All your input would be greatly appreciated.

  1. Hi Vera,
    As a fellow “Mac user” I might be able to suggest another CMS by Karelia Software, called Sandvox Pro. I stumbled across this when searching the topics of CMS on the Whirpool Forums. This also has a GREAT mac specific forum.
    I am not using a CMS for my class website – but I understand it is gaining popularity as it is not only Mac specific, but it takes into consideration your learning.
    For example, the more one learns about coding, one can then insert the xhtml into the CMS . I understand it is also highly desirable as it can use Google analytics.
    Best of luck,
    Anna
