We rarely design a website these days without some sort of content management tool. Simply put, a content management system (CMS) supports the creation, management, distribution, publishing, and discovery of information on your website. See a page that’s out of date? Update it. Want to add a new page, add it. The system takes care of the details.

Every website developed by Nerdwerx is optimized for speed. However, because of content management systems, it’s easy for an end user to unexpectedly add images to their website that are not optimized or in the right format, slowing down the site for their viewers.
