The rise of WCM (Web Content Management) Systems
If youre a small business owner with a website you are embarrassed to have associated with your name, you are not alone and there is a viable, affordable solution.
Not so very long ago (or course at our age everything about the computer seems to be not so long ago) small businesses felt like they needed a website, any website, just to stake their piece of the burgeoning Internet. Some hired young relatives who seemed to understand how these sites were built and others paid a significant amount of money to have a company do what the business owner could not begin to understand. There was no great master plan for the site and any mistakes on the site were going to stay there until they could justify hiring someone else to build a newer site.
Few thought it necessary or realistic to manage their own site. Lets face it, static sites were expensive enough and sites that allowed the average business owner to make changes were many times the cost. You needed someone who could read and write this new language called HTML and they needed to understand how to manage online document uploading. Trust me, if your close to our age, this was not something you could have learned in school.
WCMs (also called CMS or Content Management Systems) have been around a while but were primarily focused on either enterprise document management solutions or were helpful only in building sites with very limited design and content capabilities.
