Content management and eCommerce
We give our clients all the tools to easily manage their own website
Without self-management your website will be "dead in the water" within a year! Want to know more? Read this article why managing your own website is so important for small business. (We'll give you a clue - it's not about the money!)
Our content management systems can be tailored specifically to your business needs - no-one walks out the door without the ability to at least update the "News" section on their website or add fresh Testimonials.
Content management options
Our content management solutions range from our introductory ezi-editor to fully managed content management systems with integrated shopping carts.
Although we work with a number of different content management systems, we strongly recommend the following systems to our clients:
- ezi-editor - easy to use page editor - perfect for small sites
- web2growCMS (modX PHP development framework) - a powerful and flexible CMS which is easy to use and can support any level of design.
- dotNet CMS (Microsoft .Net development framework) - a extensible framework for complex web development and customisation.
To see why we recommend web2growCMS and dotNet CMS - compare CMS systems
eCommerce systems
The eCommerce solutions we recommend will best suit your needs. We integrate simple shopping carts specifically designed for the Australian market, directly into your web2growCMS website using web2growCART. We also integrated more complex shopping cart systems into dotNet CMS.
For clients looking fro standalone shopping carts, we work with PHP-based shopping carts, such as X-Cart through to robust and feature rich eCommerce sites, based on the powerful open source osCommerce shopping cart framework. Part of our web strategy process is to assist you to make sense of the many tools that you can leverage to build cost effective eCommerce solutions and ePayment gateways.

Custom development
We recognise that in many cases you will need to develop custom functionality (or extend our CMS systems) to achieve your business goals. Our coders are particularly skilled in extending the modX (PHP)and dotNet CMS (.Net) content management frameworks
However, we recognise that the choices for custom programming are varied. Rather than try to cover all bases or push you into a particular technology, we can deliver results for you if we choose the right technology for the job. In other words, we ensure your business requirements drive what is required from the technology, not the other way around.
