Suggest optimized meta description tags/keywords, H-tags.

Are you going to develop a content that is one-time use, or do you intend to reuse a hundred times over? Either strategy will require a smart CMS to build a repository and storage platform.

Identify CMS with features like multiple content reuse and unrestricted duplication.

Look for CMS that can handle reused content automatically.

If you have a dynamic content development team that produces thousands of pieces every hour, you need a robust and multi-component CMS integration.

Fast paced authoring and publishing is possible only when your CMS offers complete version control and integration with third-party plug-ins.

New-age CMS offers an extensive channel to share, collaborate and publish content in real-time.

Look for easy navigation through voluminous content files so that you can share, edit and upload files quickly, and without error.

CMS with tagging and discovery options allow multiple users using different gadget/networks to search for different files at the same time.

And all these activities carry real-time alerts and notifications.

High-end CMS platforms might require heavy duty server capabilities.

Look for CMS package that can fit into a server PHP 5.3.0 or MySQL 5.1.0 for good results.

Even with minimum server background, the CMS should be able to deliver corporate stability and back-end scalability in the future.

The bottom’s up…

CMS packages come with flexi-use pricing models and 24/7 support and training options. Weed out

the vendors that don’t provide them in the very first filter.
