Today with most people being on line 100% of the time when they are in front of a computer - when a question arises they simply key words in to a search engine.

That question could be as simple as - What is our suppliers telephone number? - Ring them and order some more...

 

No longer do people fumble around looking for telephone numbers they just Google the question.

 

No problem if you come up on the first page - major disaster if you do not, or have no website.

A content management system is software that keeps track of every piece of content on your Web site, much like your local public library keeps track of books and stores them.

Content can be simple text, photos, music, video, documents, or just about anything you can think of.

Typically, a CMS consists of two elements: the content management application (CMA) and the content delivery application (CDA).

 

The CMA element allows the content manager or author, who may not know Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), to manage the creation, modification, and removal of content from a Web site without needing the expertise of a Webmaster.

The CDA element uses and compiles that information to update the Web site.

The features of a CMS system vary, but most include Web-based publishing, format management, revision control, and indexing, search, and retrieval.

Electronic commerce or ecommerce is a term for any type of business, or commercial transaction that involves the transfer of information across the Internet

It covers a range of different types of businesses, from consumer based retail sites, through auction or music sites, to business exchanges trading goods and services between corporations.

Ecommerce allows consumers to electronically exchange goods and services with no barriers of time or distance.

Electronic commerce has expanded rapidly over the past five years and is predicted to continue at this rate, or even accelerate. In the near future the boundaries between "conventional" and "electronic" commerce will become increasingly blurred as more and more businesses move sections of their operations onto the Internet.
