What is a CMS?

A CMS (content management system) is software that lets people create, edit and publish website content through an admin screen, without writing code. WordPress, 1C-Bitrix and Drupal are familiar examples.

Also called: content management system

Why it matters

A CMS decides who can change your website and how quickly. With a good one, your team updates news, offers and landing pages the same day, without waiting for a developer. With the wrong one, every change becomes a ticket, so choose it by how your editors actually work.

1What it managesPages, blog posts, images, menus and forms, plus user roles that control who can publish.
2Traditional or headlessA traditional CMS also builds the pages; a headless CMS only stores content and serves it to any front end.
3Two languagesFor a site in Russian and Kazakh, the CMS should keep both versions of each page and link them to each other.
ExampleA dental clinic in Karaganda wants to post opening hours, team news and treatment pages itself. Its website runs on a CMS with two roles: reception edits drafts and the clinic manager publishes them. Nobody has to message the web developer to change a phone number.
