CMS Jam Content Management Systems: News and Resources

This is just a really quick tip for those of you considering several different content management systems. If the CMS you are considering doesn’t have an easy way to back up the database and files (preferably automated), take it off of your short list and choose one that does. Backups are critical, and because CMS’s generally use a database to store all of your content (rather than you hard-coding the text into each page), you’ll need an easy way to backup that database. (Databases are generally not easy to backup for the non-techie). So no matter what features you need in the CMS you choose, make sure backup of the database and files is included in that list.

That’s the CMS Jam top o’ the day…
