How The MostlyWeb CMS Solution Works
The CMS resides on our server along with a working copy
of your content. When you "publish" finished content,
flat HTML files are generated and then copied to your server.

| What Makes Us Different |
| Here are just some of the
features which differentiate the MostlyWeb CMS
solution from the competition: |
Big-system
features at a fraction of the price.
Easy to use; no html required. Site templates.
Layout templates. Time-based publishing. Uploading
files. Adding pages, sections and/or sub-sections.
'List' pages. Auto sitemap pages. Publish manager.
You name it. All for a nominal setup fee and on-going
monthly fee. |
We will
work with any host.
There's no need to switch hosts unless you want
to. We can work with any host even if we do not
have FTP access to your account. |
Optimized
for Search Engines
For each page, you can specify window titles and
META tags used by search engines to index your
site. |
Central
CMS solution means on-going enhancements.
Since our CMS runs off our server, we are able
to upgrade it and add functionality along the
way. This in contrast to installing a customized
admin utility onto your server. |
Customizable.
We can easily add/integrate custom features as
needed. |
You're
not locked in!
If at any time you wish to stop using our CMS,
you can. We simply disable your account and purge
the database. All the latest (flat) files will
already be on your server. |

-
All you need is Internet access and Explorer to use
our CMS. Once you log in, you can browse your site (much
like a user would) except you'll see our CMS drop-down
menu appear throughout your site (see below).
-
A working copy of your content along with files (such
as PDFs, PPTs, etc.) are securely stored in our database.
-
Once you are ready to publish finished content to your
site, flat html files are generated and then copied
to your production server. If you prefer, the files
can be copied to a 'staging' server first or you can
even have the CMS create a ZIP file to be emailed to
a co-worker.
-
Several times a day, the Auto-Publisher checks for
pages that need to be published. For instance, you may
have scheduled a news story to be posted at a future
date or another taken down.
-
Your site consists of flat pages which load fast and
perform optimally with search engines. If needed, portions
of your site can be set up to be dynamic (i.e. draw
their content from a database).
Easy-to-use
The CMS drop-down menu ( )
appears next to all editable parts of your site. Use it
to add/edit content, publishing, sorting, and many other
commands.
