Content Management System: software for editing website content without writing code.

What it means

A content management system lets you create and edit pages, posts and images through an editor. WordPress is the best known; many modern sites use a headless CMS that stores content separately from the website's design.

Why it matters for your business

The right CMS depends on who edits the site and how often. A heavy CMS full of plugins can slow a site and create security work; a lean setup can be faster and safer but needs a sensible editing workflow.
