Content Management Systems

According to www.wisegeek.com, "content management systems are electronic systems that take data and organize it, such that it can be retrieved, searched, and updated easily, and shared throughout an organization."
There are 6 main types of content management systems including: Enterprise CMS (ECMS); Web CMS (WCMS); Document management systems (DMS); Mobile content management systems; Component content management system; and Learning content management system (LCMS).

• Enterprise CMS (ECMS)- is a software that manages written documents. Generally, this type of software can be found in big corporations. Two classes of Enterprise CMS exist: web content management; and business process content management. Both of these provide features and functionality that is designed to improve the management of documents.
• Web CMS (WCMS)- is a system that is built to help people update their web sites via a web interface.
• Document Management System (DMS)- is a computer system used to track and store electronic documents and images of paper documents.
• Mobile Content Management Systems- is a type of CMS capable of storing and delivering content and services to mobile devices.
• Component Content Management System- is a type of CMS that manages content at a granular level rather than at the document level.
• Learning Content Management System (LCMS)- is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, and reporting of training programs.

Accessibility

With web accessibility, people with disabilities can use the web. People with disabilities can perceive, interact, understand and navigate the web. This also allows them to be able to contribute to the web as well.
Accessibility encompasses all disabilities that affects web usage. These disabilities are: visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive and neurological.
Many people in the world today have disabilities that cause them to have difficulty using the web. Most web sites right now have an accessibility barrier making it difficult and sometimes impossible for people with disabilities to use the web.
However, web accessibility can also benefit people without disabilities (i.e. people with broken arms and people with changing abilities due to aging).
Overall, accessibility is important because it is an important resource in many aspects of our lives today in areas such as: education, employment, government, commerce, health care, recreation and more.
Without accessibility, people with disabilities would not have the same opportunities in their lives as everyone else; and that I would think could be borderline discrimination because they should have the same opportunities as everyone else when it comes to education, employment, health care, etc.

Professionalism

When working in an environment that demands a certain level of professionalism in order to operate one must take into account these tips:

1. Proper Dress Attire- (i.e. business suits, dresses, ties, skirts that are knee length, etc.)
2. Behavior- (i.e. attitude and how a person conducts his or herself in the workplace. For example one that works in a doctor's office would not make a scene by arguing with patients or other co-workers).
3. Hygiene/Appearance- Nails should be clean and cut, make-up should be conservative, and one should be showered and have clean brushed teeth. For men, most oftentimes hair should be short. Body piercings, besides ears should be removed and tattoos should be either covered or removed.
4. and Ethics- All businesses have a code of ethics and one should know this policy and follow it. People should know right from wrong when working in a professional environment.

There are of course other ways to conduct professionalism in the business world as well; these are just a few of the more important aspects.

Search Engine Optimization

There are many ways web designers can optimize their web sites. Below I've listed just a few ways to help designers get started.

1. Fine tuning the TITLE page to include some of the sites keywords
2. Filling out all META META tags (i.e. keywords, description, and title) appropriately; meaning that the words used are relevant (oftentimes these words are part of the keywords)
   
3. Create gateway pages that are specific to the focus of each site
4. Ensure that site technology won't confuse the search engines
5. Perform maintenance checks
6. Include keywords in H1's. H2's and H3's and in the body of the web site
7. Adding tags to images also helps optimize web sites
8. Link to other sites that aren't competition
9. and Link back to yourself
