Choosing a CMS is often a practical rather than ideological decision - it can depend on who will maintain the site, how much budget you have and whether you plan to integrate with mobile apps. A content management system not only makes it easier to add and edit content; it also affects the security, speed and scalability of the site.
In this category you will find factual advice on the most popular solutions. We explain when WordPress is enough, and when it's worth reaching for Drupal or Joomla. We also look at headless CMSs - such as Strapi or Contentful - which seem great when you need a multi-channel publication or a mobile app, although you have to expect more programming effort.
We focus on practice: hosting configuration for a specific CMS (e.g. PHP parameters, PHP-FPM, memory limits), database optimization (MySQL/MariaDB, Redis/Varnish cache) and sensible selection of plugins and extensions - we don't promote installing dozens of modules "in stock". We also describe user permissions management and simple tricks that realistically ease the burden on teams.
Security comes first with us: we talk about regular updates, automatic backups, SSL configuration and server settings to minimize risk. All recommendations are written with small and medium-sized companies in mind - we take into account the real budgets and capabilities of the teams, and sometimes offer compromise solutions that simply work.
