• Consistent enterprise view A familiar user interface and information architecture brings together
existing web sites, databases, and other applications into a single gateway, enabling faster decision-making and better-equipped customers and employees.

avalanche of information. • Enhanced Decision making
Portals can make it easier for employee teams, customers, partners and other principals to work together.

and an individual level enables business owners to gather information about the behavior and habits of users, so the offering can be improved over time.
• Cost Reduction Reduced support and training cost via self service
• Revenue Enhancements Allows an ability to cross sell Faster time to market

Web Content Management Life cycle
The six steps in the life cycle are: Create: content is created or revised, resulting in a new version of
content to be managed by the repository. Review: A critical stage to getting content approved is first having it
reviewed within the organization. The review and approval process may use workflow technology to facilitate comments and changes to the content. The result is the promotion of content to an approved stage.
Aggregate and manage: Approved content is stored and managed in the repository. Content is available for aggregation and reuse in other contexts.
Distribute: Content is available for access and distribution. Access can be accomplished directly from the repository or through ancillary applications. Content distribution is formatted for the specific output device or targeted market.
Archive: Information is archived based on a set of rules that specify the time in which the content is considered to be valid or accurate. An active repository can automatically delete expired content or present it to a manager for review.
Destroy: When content is no longer valuable to an organization, it may be destroyed. Some content may not be destroyed but will be reused or integrated with other content, thus starting the life cycle again.

Web Content Management Process
• Content contributors can create content using the authoring interface – all creation should be ‘controlled’ by a use of templates
Templates support a consistent look and feel, promote the reuse of design elements, and make it easy for non-technical users to contribute content to the site.
• Presentation templates allow isolation of presentation (UI, navigation) from information• Data templates allow isolation of content structure from information.
Content Management system should automate all the steps involved in publishing information on the website. It will empower business users to manage content without technology intervention.
