Minimal CMS policy
The best ratio cost/ performance.March 06, 2015
Litemoon was one of the pioneer in the use of CMS (Content Management System). Back in 2004, we already set up several Websites based on the first version of Joomla. But over time, we experienced several trends that made us re-think the use of CMS.
CMS tend to facilitate developer's work in order to gain in popularity. They embed template engines and large amount of functionalities that will never be used, to the detriment of performance, security and efficient design. Check our detailed list of arguments.
Today, we favour the total absence of CMS if you don't intend to update your site more than once every few months. We also prone the use of minimalist solutions with non-database CMS like Dash or Social Media Walls.
These measures provoke a raise in Website's performance, convertion rate, security and life expectancy. Overall a better return on your investment.
