Most businesses only consider SEO after their website is built which can often be a hindrance to your ranking goals. SEO should be a consideration from the first steps of an online journey – most importantly in the construction of your website. To create a SEO strategy, you need web content management system and the foundation of most company’s web content is their CMS website.
CMS or content management system is a computer program that allows publishing, editing and modifying content as well as maintenance from a central interface. Such systems of content management provide procedures to manage workflow in a collaborative environment. These procedures can be manual or automated. CMSs have been available since the late 1990s.
CMSs are often used to run websites containing blogs, news, and shopping. Many corporate and marketing websites use content management systems. The purpose of a CMS, typically, is to avoid the need for hand coding but may support it for specific elements or entire pages.
So to help those of you starting out with CMS, or for those re-evaluating your web presence and content, I’ve provided a list of the best SEO friendly “FREE” CMS platforms available for building business websites (rather than just blogging).
WordPress
WordPress is a personal favorite of mine (this is a WordPress Site) as it’s very simple to set up and implement, but also because it has support from such a large developer community. WordPress is a powerful yet easy to use content management system. While it was originally designed as a blogging platform, it has become a popular choice as a business website CMS.
