Frequently Asked Questions

What is a CMS?

A CMS is short for Content Management System. CMS websites typically store their information in a database and retrieve this information each time a webpage is displayed. The software behind this system allows users to make their own changes easily by means of a back-end management system and these changes are reflected in real-time on the website.

What CMS will my webpage be utilising?

WordPress. WordPress is a leading “blog” software which is provided free under an open source license. Anyone can download and make use of WordPress  with the correct technical expertise and correct hosting environment.

If Wordpress is free, what costs am I expected to cover?
The costs surrounding your website development are to establish a website design and incorporate your webpage content as well as to roll-out the WordPress installation on the web-server. There is usually also a hosting portion assigned to this development.

What is hosting?
Hosting is the service which keeps your website online 24/7. This can be considered “space rental” and is the cost associated with delivering your website on the internet.
