A content management system assists users in organizing and controlling their resources. The main reason to use a CMS application is to improve the organization of content. A quality CMS application can provide numerous benefits to an individual and/or company ranging from increased growth capacity to increased site flexibility.
WordPress, an online blogging site, is looking to improve its CMS features in an attempt to offer its users a more efficient way to organize and manage their content. Improvements made to the CMS features of WordPress would help create a much better content control structure for the popular site. An analysis of three of the top CMS applications will be done to search for CMS features currently not supported by WordPress. A thorough analysis that will show how and why CMS is so effective for these sites and why their features can benefit WordPress will be completed and documented. The features documented will then be evaluated, designed and implemented into the popular blogging site. Depending on the results of the analysis of top CMS applications, several features could be added that would ultimately make working with WordPress an easy and stress-free experience |
