What is a Content Management System (CMS)?

A Content Management System (CMS) is a computer program that allows people to post and edit text, graphics and photos on the internet without any knowledge of HTML, programming or other technical things. By using a CMS you will be able to enter text as simple plain text, while the CMS will display the text in a format that can be adjusted and edited to meet your requirements. Top

What is an online CMS?
