Content managed websites
What is a content managed site?
A content managed website is a site that allows you to act as an administrator; this gives you the power to add, delete and edit your the content of your website yourself.
Links to content on the site are automatically updated by the system as you change it. This means that you don't have to pay updating charges to a web developer and you keep tighter control of scheduling for new content, keeping the your site bang up to date with the latest developments in your organisation.
A content managed site puts your hands firmly on the wheel of your site giving you the power and control to drive it in the direction you want, at the speed you want, anytime you want.

Which content management software do you use?
We use MODx , an open source content management system.
Because MODx is open source software it means that it is relatively cheap to install and integrate with the site that we design for you. MODx is a new generation of CMS that represents a real and affordable alternative to the bespoke or proprietary content management systems offered by many other web design and development companies.
The greater part of the cost for a MODX CMS based site is the integration with the existing design and the development of any special features that you may require.
A useful feature of MODX is the ability to schedule content to publish and "unpublish" automatically at a predefined time in the future, meaning that you can author site content and leave it on the system until the right time comes around. This can be useful for product or event announcements.
This website is developed using MODx, so we're MODx users as well as MODx site developers. There's committment for you!
For examples of other sites that we developed using MODx see the funzig website portfolio
Is it easy to to change my own content?
Yes, but because the steepest part of the learning curve is often found at the beginning we include one to one training sessions in the development price. We'll show you all you need to kick start your content management and get you directing your own website very quickly.
