A content management system (CMS) is a system used to manage the content of a Web site. Typically, a CMS consists of two elements: the content management application (CMA) and the content delivery application (CDA). The CMA element allows the content manager or author, who may not know Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), to manage the creation, modification, and removal of content from a Web site without needing the expertise of a Webmaster.

CMS is a software system that is used for content management. The system can manage content that includes computer files, image media, electronic documents, web content and audio files.

The Web-based publishing feature allows individuals to use a template or a set of templates approved by the organization, as well as wizards and other tools to create or modify Web content. The revision control feature allows content to be updated to a newer version or restored to a previous version. Revision control also tracks any changes made to files by individuals. An additional feature is indexing, search, and retrieval. A CMS system indexes all data within an organization. Individuals can then search for data using keywords, which the CMS system retrieves.

Blog (a short form of Web log) is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is called ‘blogging’ and someone who maintains a blog is a ‘blogger’. The blog is displayed in a reverse chronological order.

Blogs are typically updated and maintained on a daily basis using software, which people with little or no technical background can use. Generally blogs are entries about the personal experiences and hobbies of the writer. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic. Many blogs syndicate their content to subscribers using RSS, a popular content distribution tool.

Need for Blog

Blogs are an interactive medium that allows even micro-business owners to become niche experts. Blogs are also sometimes considered an excellent marketing tool. Once a blog catches the attention of readers, it can be used to develop a wider audience and potential customer base for business.

Even if the content of a website is not updated, a blog which is updated on a regular basis, allows the viewers to interact with the blogger, and know about the current happenings vis-à-vis the blogger and his business.
