The power to publish whatever you want.

CMS! Content Management System.
Giving your clients the power to publish what they want, whatever that may be.

Recently we have been building a lot of CMS powered websites. Gone are the days of getting a designer to change your homepage or upload a new product. Now the client is in control of their web presence.

So... you work hard to make it look perfect, you think about the colours, the type, the tone of voice, the users, the navigation.. Its a great bit of work, you're proud of it.. its got your name on the credits.

But the client is in control of their content, that's the way they wanted it. If they want to use comic sans as the font on their homepage they can. If they want to have their name in italic text with an underline then that's up to them. If they want to have their badly scanned newspaper advert on the site as a new article then they should.. shouldn't they.. they can do what they like.. they have the controls.

Oh and its still got your name on the credits.
