Sample CMS Websites
Indiana author Shirley Scott needed an easy website solution to promote her new series of books about
Jack and Dobbie, two loveable
Chihuahuas. Our CMS was a great fit!

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Adams County, Indiana relied on
us to implement a
CMS website. We are now updating it with a newer
technology for a cleaner design and lighter back end.

The Anthony Wayne Area Council uses a robust Content Management System,
powered by an MS-SQL database, to promote Scouting
throughout northeast Indiana.

Content Management Systems
Armanda Designs has deployed numerous Content Management System (CMS) websites for
customers in the past few years. A CMS allows users with little or no knowledge
of programming or HTML code to add, update, and manage general website content with
ease.
Some of our CMS websites use a database to store content, metadata, and other
necessary information & settings. Others store these details as XML.
Either way, a CMS platform from Armanda Designs makes it easy to administer your
website through a browser-based interface.
If you can use common office software such as Microsoft Word, you can probably
utilize our Content Management Systems! Unlike specialty software such as Microsoft
Expression or Adobe Dreamweaver, a CMS
requires no investment in special software and enables non-technical users to make changes to an existing website with only
minimal training. This helps our costumers reduce their ongoing investment in
maintaining their websites.
Our CMS platforms are based on applications designed to run within Microsoft's
.NET Framework, a collection of components that allow tremendous flexibility in
structuring a website or a Windows application.
Our Content Management System website packages generally include on-site training
to get you 'up to speed' on your own computer. We provide step-by-step
written instructions and screenshots for common tasks. We also offer on-going
technical assistance (either on-site or by telephone) for more complex tasks or
for training new staff.
These CMS websites are rich with features, allowing website owners to:
- Add, edit or delete pages and content
- Add and format images
- Create document
download areas
- Set up private "members only" pages
- Manage user lists
- Manage a
guestbook
- Add blog posts
- Add news articles
- Add events calendars
- Add a chatroom
or forum
- Create an RSS feed to send automatic updates to Facebook or other websites
- And more!
