Is the Interspire Website Publisher Content Management System Right For Your Website



Over the years I have worked with many different Content Management Systems - from scratch built to using open-source applications such as Joomla, WordPress, Drupal, and others, to commercial software such as Interspire's Website Publisher.

I have had the opportunity to work to learn first-hand what makes a system mediocre, and what makes a system outstanding, like the Interspire Website Publisher.

What is a Content Management System (CMS)?

A content management system is a software application that runs on your website server, allowing you manage your website through the use of a database, a website template and application code.

The explosion of blogs today is largely because of easy-to-use websites with content management systems that allow users to easily create the website and change content.

With your own CMS, you and your staff can fully control your website content, and make updates at any time, without having to rely on your IT department or your website's webmaster.
You Should Use a CMS to:

- Have full control over all your website content.
- Have a secure Administration login and management via a web page.
- Allow staff to login and make content changes easily.
- Add and delete pages.
- Update the website without the need of programming or HTML skills.
- Control the website content publishing process.
- Assign author, contributor, editor and publisher rights to different users.
- Manage dozens, hundreds or thousands of website pages.

Why Consider Website Publisher?

Interspire has been creating commercial web-based software since 2003, and Website Publisher is one of several products in its suite of website applications.
