Introduction
The right CMS is not the most fashionable one. It is the one that fits how the business works.
Why we use this
We support different platforms because real businesses inherit different systems. Some need a new WordPress build. Some need Shopify. Some need an old Drupal site kept stable long enough to plan a proper migration.
Where it fits
- Choosing a platform for a new website.
- Supporting existing CMS websites.
- Planning migrations from older systems.
- Connecting ecommerce, content and SEO requirements.
- Helping clients understand what they can manage themselves.
When a business should use it
A business should review CMS options when the current site is hard to update, weak for SEO, difficult to extend or too dependent on one person.
When it should not
It should not change platform just because a new tool looks simpler. Migration has a cost, and the business case needs to be clear.
Evidence and workflow notes
