What CMS for simple websites ?

Discussion in 'Content Management' started by Peter Novy, Jul 12, 2016.

    I'd like to use some very simple CMS tool for simple websites: for restaurants, hairdressers... Very often one page website and let my client edit the content.
    Any ideas?

    I'm using minorit.com for some of my web pages. It's very simple tool to use so if you don't need any advance editing features it could fit you. I like that you can change text directly on the website (after entering password) and that it saves the changes to my ftp. For me it works even if I have a website with more pages in menu.

    WordPress is most powerful and user friendly CMS than any other CMS. You must can choose wordpress for making a simple and cool website. WordPress is easy to maintain and no coding knowledge is required for being wordpress admin.

    Please don't think any other option except Wordpress. You can easily customize any small business website by using tons of theme which available in wordpress. Also you can optimize your content very easily.

    For your website you can use WordPress. It is a best CMS, super easy to use. Without it,
    You can use a custom CMS which will made by a developer for you.
    Thank you

    There are many CMS that can be used but for simple websites WordPress is one of the best as it is open source content management system that is built on PHP and MySQL.

    If all you need is a simple one pager with limited functionality you're seriously doing way too much work if you do anything more than a free weebly site (or Wix if you're not going to be scaling up/growing your site much in the forseeable future) but I say Weebly because no t only is it ridiculously easy and you'll be done in like 20 minutes even if you've never done it before, but it's also got the most upward scalability and will let you have the source code/site files if you decide to upgrade to a WordPress (or other CMS) and Weebly converts to WordPress beautifully..and you don't even have to bother learning all that yet....lol and with all the weebly apps in the really large new appstore for weebly, you would have plenty of room for growth before you would need to bother with anything complicated - plus the templates look way better than the free WordPress templates....Just my opinion

    Wordpress itself however is vulnerable enough to be the hacking target so you need extra layer of security such as web application firewall or security plugins.

    Try Tilda. There's a bunch of ready-made templates or you can create your own if you want as it's simple AF. And yeah, it's pretty cheap. I have used it for my previous blog and was really happy with it.

    I would say Wordpress. It's easy and you have a lot of resources.

    I feel comfortable while working in Wordpress. I think its the single most flexible CMS platform that was ever built.
