Over the last five years the way in which businesses perceive the Internet has changed significantly. As people rely more and more on the Internet, users expect websites to deliver fresh, interactive and relevant content that is regularly updated.
Here, at Phew we have developed the PhewCMS to meet this business requirement and the evolving nature of the Internet. Without new and relevant information on a website, people will simply not visit or return to the site, when in such a fiercely competitive market; businesses cannot afford to make this mistake.
» What is a Content Management System?
We have developed the PhewCMS to allow organisations to easily administer their own website, intranet, or extranet online without the need for additional software or technical knowledge. PhewCMS is a flexible and easily deployed server-based system designed for the efficient collection, management and publication of content within a website. Companies are able to update text, insert images and graphics of their site whenever and wherever they like. PhewCMS gives businesses the ability to produce effective and impressive web pages independently.
» Why?
People are continually looking to the Internet for answers, with over 800 million users online, and growing, it is becoming increasingly more important not only to be “on the net” but to have a major presence. The need for content to be fresh and informative is driving the requirements of organisations and their websites to a higher scale. With a well designed and up-to-date website through PhewCMS, companies can show themselves to be as professional and credible as their larger competitors and so compete successfully in this growing market
The PhewCMS empowers business users to contribute and publish content regularly, allowing for well managed and relevant content. This enables business users to focus on their core business whilst benefiting from contributions to their website; consequently producing and maintaining an impressive and informative website. Having the ability to manage website pages and marketing material online whilst keeping to corporate style provides huge benefits:
Better Participation
The intuitive nature of the PhewCMS Editor makes it easy for anyone who has used standard office applications to be able to manage content. Most users need little or no technical skill or training to be able to create and edit great pages.
Compliance
We believe that the adoption of standards is important to the future of the Internet. The PhewCMS technology has been developed to allow compliance to the common standards for Internet use. Following similar principles for ease of use, the application of accessibility guidelines is simple and automatically prepared when content is created.

Levels of control can be introduced that allows administrators to have overall control over what will be published on the live website. The tool PhewCMS uses is called Publish Control, which restricts the creative and editing powers of users and exists so permission is required for changes to be published on the website.

Consistent Look and Design
Templates and styles allow users to enter content directly into a pre-designed template pages, which provides PhewCMS users with a complete editing environment, but protects areas of the page that are not for general editing. This creates the right balance between editorial control and design coherence ensuring the final output conforms to agreed design principles.
Scalability & Flexibility
The PhewCMS can be scaled from a single site environment to multiple sites with unlimited pages with high endurance to site 'traffic' allowing for a large number of visitors to successfully view the site.

Search engines
PhewCMS has been built keeping the best practise for search engines in mind, allowing editing of Metadata (at page level, globally or for a groups of pages). The system allows for each individual page to be optimised; the content within pages can be based around targeted keywords which can be edited within the Metatag tools. This feature helps to improve search engine rankings, and ultimately traffic and maintain a “Search Engine Friendly Website.”
Cost Effective
Users can enter content directly, inserting images and tables without outside involvement or any technical knowledge. Besides being much faster, PhewCMS is a much more cost-effective approach to content management.» How?
Many Content Management solutions are too complicated for most users or too simple to allow the required control. Rather than requiring specialist skills PhewCMS has made authoring available to everyone. Users can enter the information directly inheriting the default design of the chosen template and go on to enter. We have struck a balance between offering a highly technical solution and simple administration within a controlled environment.
The PhewCMS means that information can be entered on an administration page updating the website immediately, within the limitations of the control process. This gives a potential new found flexibility of design and presentation of the information on a website or online magazine. PhewCMS will give you the flexibility at the level of expertise you feel comfortable with whilst still achieving a professional and brand consistent website.
