If you have a large site, frequently-changing information, or interactive content, a content management system (CMS) is a smart choice. (Most clients who have smaller, less active sites take advantage of our webmaster services.)

Using a CMS has many benefits:

• It's simple: you don't need a lot of technical skill to easily publish new content to your site.
• No special software: all you need is a web browser (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox) and an internet connection.
• No HTML necessary: editing a page is like using a word processor.
• Share the responsibility: a CMS allows multiple staff members to update the site, and helps ensure consistency across the whole site.
• It's flexible: pick and choose only the features you need, such as blog, calendar, web analytics, discussion forum, online community building, password-protected areas.
• It grows with you: You may need a relatively simple site now, but building on a CMS from the start will put you in a position to expand and add features as your needs change

Drupal, our preferred open-source CMS, has a smart, strong and active community of developers constantly working to improve it. GJD will help you take advantage of having this powerful team in your court.

Because Drupal is open-source, it is available for anyone to download and install at no charge. Neither GJD nor anyone else will ever ask you to pay for your use of this software. The only cost involved is for the time to install, configure, customize, and upgrade Drupal.
