Glossary of Terms
The CMS Consultants Glossary contains over 270 definitions for technical terms used every day in the field of content management. Content management is a broad field, encompassing professionals from technical writers and graphic artists to information architects and user experience engineers.
The Glossary attempts to provide complete explanations of terms from each of these sub-disciplines to help CMS Consultants be generalists in a world of specialists.
