Frequently asked questions
Questions about website management and CMS
What a content management system is, what website management covers and when it pays to change your CMS.
What is a CMS (content management system)?
A CMS (content management system) is a tool that lets you edit website content without programming. You change text, photos, articles or products in a clear interface similar to a text editor. The most widely used CMS in the world is WordPress. A modern alternative is a headless CMS, which separates content management from the way the site is displayed.
Can I edit my website myself?
Yes. With a content management system you can edit the site yourself: change text and add photos, articles, references or products. When we hand the site over, we train you in the system so you can handle everyday edits without a technician. Design changes, new features and technical maintenance are safer left to us, so the site stays stable.
What does website maintenance include?
Website maintenance includes regular updates of the CMS and plugins, backups, uptime and security monitoring, bug fixes and small content edits. It also covers checks of speed, forms and the validity of the domain and SSL certificate. The goal is a site that runs without outages while you focus on your business.
How much does website maintenance cost?
Website maintenance is usually billed as a monthly retainer, and its size depends on the size of the site, the system it runs on and the amount of content editing. A smaller company site needs less care than an online store whose range changes daily. At creatiwe we set the scope around what your site actually needs, so you do not pay for hours you never use.
How often should a website be updated?
Security updates for the system and plugins should be installed as soon as they are released, routine updates at least once a month. Content such as price lists, contact details, your offer and references is worth reviewing whenever something changes in the company, and at least once a quarter. An up-to-date site looks trustworthy to customers and is rated better by search engines too.
What is a headless CMS and when is it worth it?
A headless CMS is a content management system that only manages content and delivers it through an API to a website, mobile app or online store. The look of the site is separate from it, which makes the site faster and more secure and lets one piece of content appear in several places. It pays off for performance-focused sites, multilingual projects and wherever WordPress is no longer enough.
Can a website be moved to another system without losing Google rankings?
Yes, if the migration is done thoroughly. When moving to a new system we transfer the content and keep or redirect the original URLs (301 redirects), metadata and heading structure. After launch we check error pages and indexing in Google Search Console. Short-term ranking swings are normal, but with the right process traffic stabilizes quickly.
