A content management system is software that is used to build a website without the need to code everything or know how to code. Yes, it is just for websites. Content management systems are used to manage and publish content.

HTML is more secure than CMS, although a CMS is more organized. A pro of HTML is the fact that when you (or someone you hire) codes your website, you can create it exactly how you want it, whereas with a CMS there are a lot of design layouts that can be customized, but it may not be exactly what you want. A disadvantage of HTML is it can take longer than a CMS to update and there is always the chance that some of the coding can be wrong which would make the page not load. Using a CMS, you can update any of the content anywhere, and there are multiple functions that you can incorporate into your website. I think the best way to make a website depends on what you are using it for. Both HTML and a CMS are great ways to do that, and they each have their pros. Personally, I think a CMS would be better, not only can you make all the changes you need and update your website, but you can do so much faster than having to code your webpages again. (Websites pros and cons, 2019.)

CMS, I feel, have had a both negative and positive impact on the web industry. They have sped up web design as well as making it easier to create a personalized website. On the other hand, they are taking away jobs from web designers. Since most people would rather choose a free or low-cost CMS to create their websites instead of paying a web designer much more, this is taking their jobs and making it harder for them to find jobs.

Today, do more people access the web using computers or mobile devices?

According to Perficient, more people access the web using mobile devices instead of computers. In one statistic, they state that worldwide “68.1% of all website visits in 2020 came from mobile devices” …” Desktops drove 28.9% of visits, while 3.1% of visitors came from tablets.” (Enge, 2021). Although, the amount of time spend on sites in the United States is still being led by the computer.

A blog is a frequently updated website/webpage by an individual or a small group of people. It’s usually written in an informal way and is used to share information on certain topics and attract users to your site. Blogs are also a way to help companies appear on search engines.

SEO is search engine optimization and website managers should be concerned about it because it helps draw people into their websites, and it helps their websites appear more often in search engines.

Dynamic content is content that changes based on the data the website has about the user and the time the user is accessing. An example of dynamic content is an email website.

A youtube channel is a video sharing service that allows people to create profiles, create and share videos as well as watch other people’s videos. It would be a good idea for a social media influencer or creator to start a youtube channel, or a business owner to boost their products.
