Content Management Systems (or CMS) are third-party applications
that provide a graphical user interface for adding and editing website
content: pages, scripts, files, multimedia content, and so on. The
following CMS are the most popular and widely used:
- WordPress - a free and open-source blogging tool.
-
Joomla - a free and open-source content management system for
publishing web content. - Drupal - a free and open-source content-management framework
Before you can create a website with a CMS, you need to install the CMS
on your hosting account. There are two options available:
- Install a CMS as a web application. All most popular CMS can be
installed as web applications using the Plesk interface. To do so,
follow these instructions:
- Go to Applications.
- Find the CMS you need in the list of available applications, and
install it as described in the Web Applications
section. - Create your website in the CMS. For information about creating
websites with your CMS, refer to the relevant documentation.
- If the desired CMS cannot be found on the list of available web
applications, you need to download and install it according to the
installation instructions provided in the documentation of the CMS of
your choice.
Note: You can install a CMS as a web application only if your hosting
subscription allows it.
