A CMS is an automated series of tools and commands that support the creation, management, distribution and storage of digital information. In one place, you can create original content, edit and proof it, publish it to the Internet and other outlets or archive it for later use. Best of all, you can typically accomplish all of this with a series of simple clicks of a mouse. There are dozens of options available for digital content management.
