When should you use a CMS?
If you are working with a blog or a photo gallery, you definitely need a cms . Another special case is when a website must be constantly updated as a newspaper, a news website or a magazine.
One of the advantages of a cms is that it offers, excellent editorial control over the contents published on the website, and a better management of user resources for the page.
when you don't have to use a CMs and program your site by hand?
The manual design in html and css of web pages must be considered as an option for static websites with few pages that are rarely updated, as usually occurs with websites of small corporate companies or with little information.
When you decide to write a broad code for your website, you can pay attention to every detail, since they are no longer restricted by the specific limitations of the platform, you can design and manufacture the individual components of the website manually.
Another point to consider must be security. Most cms continually offer new updates or patches on a regular basis, however, at a generalized level, a cms invites computer pirates more than a website coded rigidly since it is easier to access it through the content of the content manager
Before deciding to use a cms or not on your website answer the following questions: What utility will I give to my website? Am I going to update it periodically? And if the answer is affirmative, ask yourself something basic html?
