Manage Your Content. Not Your Technology.

simple tools that fit your business

Your website should make it easy to keep your business information current without requiring you to become a web developer.

At 11 Fingers Design, we build websites with content management tools that fit the way you actually work. That might mean a full Content Management System (CMS), an e-commerce platform with built-in editing tools, or a custom solution that lets you update just the information that changes regularly.

The goal isn't to give you more technology to manage. It's to give you simple, practical control over your website content.

You do an amazing job helping keep this website up...thank you!

The right CMS for Your Business

Not every business needs the same level of content management.

For a website with frequently changing pages, articles, staff information or other dynamic content, a full CMS can provide the flexibility your team needs.

Sometimes, you only need to manage a few specific parts of your website — employee profiles, project galleries, products, announcements, events, or other frequently changing information. In those cases, a custom management interface can be faster, simpler, and easier to use than putting your entire website inside a large CMS.

We build management tools around what your business actually needs to manage—instead of making your business adapt to the software.

Content management options can include:

  • Full-site Content Management Systems
  • WordPress development and customization
  • E-commerce content and product management
  • Blog and news publishing tools
  • Staff and directory management
  • Portfolio and project management
  • Events and calendar management
  • Custom administrative dashboards
  • Purpose-built editing tools for specific website content

Do You Need a Full CMS?

Content Management Systems are powerful, but more isn't always better.

A full CMS can give your staff tremendous flexibility, but that flexibility also comes with additional software updates, plugins, security considerations, and ongoing maintenance. Giving users control over every page and design element may sound ideal, but it can also make a website more complicated to manage — and easier to change in ways you didn’t intend.

Sometimes, a more focused approach is the better fit.

If you only need to manage certain areas of your website, we can build tools specifically for those tasks while keeping the rest of the site professionally designed, consistent, secure, and maintained.

You get control where you need it without unnecessary complexity everywhere else.

Flexibility, Security and Simplicity

Choosing the right content management platform is about finding the right balance between flexibility, simplicity, security, and long-term needs.

Flexibility

A full CMS can provide extensive functionality and access to thousands of third-party extensions. A custom system can focus on exactly what your business needs, without adding features and complexity you may never use.

Ease of Use

The best content management system is one your staff will actually feel comfortable using. For some businesses, that means the flexibility of a full CMS. For others, a focused interface built around a handful of everyday tasks can be much easier to learn and manage.

Security

Every website requires attention to security. Popular CMS platforms need regular updates and careful management of themes, plugins, and extensions. A focused custom solution can reduce the number of moving parts, while still requiring professional development, monitoring, and ongoing maintenance.

Growth

What works for your business today should not limit where you can go tomorrow. We consider both your current requirements and how your website may need to expand as your business grows and changes.

Ongoing Maintenance

Every platform requires some level of care. Before recommending a solution, we’ll help you understand what it requires to maintain, update, and support it over time—so you can make an informed decision from the start.

This was my first website and I had no idea what to expect, but my anxiety level was high until I met with NancyJeanette Long. She listened intently to my descriptions of the technical features I wanted and the emotional impact that I needed each part of the site to produce. She put together a proposal that took all of these into account and quickly went to work. Every question was answered, every concern was addressed, everything that was promised was done, and everything (and I do mean everything) was on time or early and always on budget. The cost structure for the entire project was completely transparent from the outset, and there were no deviations or surprises.

Choosing the Right Platform

There isn't one content management system that's right for every website.

That's why we start with your business instead of starting with a platform.

What content will you need to change? How often will it change? Who will be making those changes? Do multiple people need different levels of access? Will the website need new functionality later? How important are integrations with other business systems?

Once we understand those needs, we can recommend an approach that makes sense.

Sometimes that's a proven, full-featured CMS. Sometimes it's an e-commerce platform. And sometimes the best answer is a custom website with a few exceptionally simple tools behind it.

You Run the Business. We'll Handle the Website.

You shouldn't have to think about themes, plugins, software versions or technical architecture every time you need to change something on your website.

We'll help you choose and build a content management solution that gives you the control you need while keeping the technology where it belongs: behind the scenes.

You Don't Have to Manage It Yourself

A good content management system gives you the freedom to make updates yourself. But that doesn't mean you have to spend your time doing it.

With 11 Fingers Website Updating & Support, you can send your website changes to us and get back to running your business. From updating text and photos to adding new pages, products, staff members or other content, we're here when you'd rather have someone else handle it.

You get the flexibility of a website that's easy to manage and the support of a team that can manage it for you.

Your website. Your choice. Update it yourself, or let us take care of it.
