Yes you guessed it, I just saw X-Men Origins – Wolverine. Unlike that, this article has no special effects or mutants, however, The Admin Site does have rippling apps and razor sharp functionality… Ok I promise not to make any other Wolverine fuelled nerd jokes.

There are so many Content Management Systems out there, many of them really good. Some of the better known CMS’ are Joomla and Mambo, both of which are built using the same programming language as The Admin Site, PHP.

It was these very Content Management Systems which fuelled our desire to build our own CMS. Many average punters are given content management systems, like Joomla or Mambo, to manage their websites, however, these systems are not user friendly for your average business owner who knows little or nothing about websites and the internet. We wanted to create a content management system which would revolve around ease of use and would not confuse it’s users by bombarding them with dozens of links or with using terminology which would only serve to confuse them.

Our second bug bear about the content management systems out there was that a website had to be designed around the limitations of the CMS. We wanted a CMS which could be customised to any requirement, thus a freer creative process which resulted in what the client wanted, rather than what the content management system dictated.

So after 12 months of research, testing and development we came up with The Admin Site. The initial feedback we received from the first of our clients to use The Admin Site was terrific! Over the following months we sought continual feedback and made efforts to refine and add various elements.

The Admin Site is now approaching is second birthday and like all two year olds, The Admin Site has made tremendous leaps and bounds since its birth, however, what really excites us are all the new plug-ins and functionality we are developing.

The Admin Site now handles a huge range of elements from your basic content entry, to flash or jQuery photo galleries, from search engine optimisation to online store management or email marketing. Basically, The Admin Site can handle anything that you need to do in order to make the day to day operation of your business and website easier and more efficient.

We are extremely excited with what we hope to achieve in the future with The Admin Site and are continually looking for bigger and more complex challenges to which we can apply The Admin Site.

If you have any questions about how The Admin Site can help your business and website or would like to arrange a demonstration, please drop us an email at info@spikewebdesign.com.au.
