CONTENT MANAGEMENT made easy

Welcome to our guide to content management—designed to help you confidently organise, create, edit, and maintain your website’s content without confusion or unnecessary tech jargon. At Marble Websites, we believe that managing your web content should be simple, intuitive, and satisfying—even if you’re not a tech expert.

What Is Content Management?

Simply put, content management is the practice of creating, organising, storing, delivering, and updating digital content like text, images, videos, or documents. It includes everything from drafting a blog post to archiving outdated pages.

A good content management approach ensures that your website remains up to date, easy to navigate, and a true reflection of your business or organisation.

Why It Matters for Your Website

Without a clear system for managing content, sites can quickly become chaotic—making updates difficult, leading to duplicates, or leaving outdated information live. Good content management keeps things organised, avoids errors, and ensures visitors can always find what they’re looking for.

For small businesses, charities, or community groups, having control over your own content means you can communicate changes—like event details or service offerings—immediately and effectively.

Simple Content Management, WordPress Style

Most Marble Websites projects use WordPress—or similar user-friendly systems. These platforms offer a content management application (CMA), letting you work on your website with a familiar interface—and without needing to write code.

Key benefits of a CMA-backed setup:

• User-friendly editing tools like WYSIWYG editors to update pages easily

• Media libraries for straightforward image and video handling

• Version history, so you can revert edits if needed.

• Workflow support, ideal if more than one person contributes content.

Best Practices

Here are a few simple, effective ways to keep your website content under control:

1. Know Your Audience
   Plan content based on who your visitors are and what they need—making every page serve a clear purpose.

2. Use a Content Calendar
   Even for small sites, planning updates—like blog posts or seasonal announcements—helps you stay organised and consistent.

3. Consistent Naming & Tagging
   Use meaningful titles and tags for files so they’re easy to find later. It saves time and helps avoid confusion.

4. Make Content Reusable
   When you structure content using reusable blocks or templates, it becomes easier to update in the future.

5. Simple Workflows
   Assign roles—who writes, who reviews, who publishes—to ensure clarity and consistency, especially if multiple people update the site.
