There is undoubtedly, a lot of content on the internet, an unfathomably large amount of content in fact. Because of this massive amount of information, it is necessary to have a way to organize it, which is the job of content management systems (CMS’s). Content management systems are used to, as the name suggests, manage content. This can include content such as videos, pictures, text, and more. Websites like YouTube, Facebook, Gmail, and plenty of others are examples of what an online content management system looks like. Content management systems aren’t just online though, hand-made inventory counts, role call in schools, grocery lists are also technically all content management systems.

There is a vast number of CMS sites on the internet and each one is unique in its purpose such as sharing, storing, or manipulating information. One such purpose for some CMS sites is that of web design. There are plenty of content management systems dedicated to providing ease of access to those wanting to make websites and provide accessible templates for people to choose from or drag and drop features and styles into their website. CMS sites are a great way for the average person with no coding experience to make a website that is serviceable to their needs and rather easy to maintain. Although a reasonable choice for website creation, content management systems take away freedom from the creator by only offering so many options, many of which are not what the user truly desires. Coding a website takes and immense amount of knowledge, skills, and time which sometimes simply isn’t available many times when trying to make a website for a business, as an example. CMS web development services are great for those who don’t need a very complex website and are willing to settle for something outside their original idea, where coding a website is a longer process and requires a certain amount of knowledge to achieve a perfect result.

With the advent of CMS services being able to fill the role of web developers, at least to a certain extent, it is easy to understand why web developers may have a more difficult time finding a job. While a spectacular option for website making if you are a small business in need of a quick website, the option to make one’s own website so easily and readily is ultimately quite dangerous to the careers of most web developers.
