9. A CMS Is Not A Silver Bullet
Many of the clients I work with have amazingly unrealistic expectations of CMS (content management systems). Those without one think it will solve all of their content woes, while those who have one moan about it because it hasn’t!
It is certainly true that a CMS can bring a lot of benefits. These include:
reducing the technical barriers of adding content,
allowing more people to add and edit content,
facilitating faster updates,
and allowing greater control.
However, many CMS are less flexible than their owners would like. They fail to meet the changing demands of the websites they manage. Website managers also complain that their CMS is hard to use. However, in many cases, this is because those using it have not been adequately trained or are not using it regularly enough.
Finally, a CMS may allow content to be easily updated, but it does not ensure that content will be updated or even that the quality of content will be acceptable. Many CMS-based websites still have out-of-date content or poorly written copy. This is because internal processes have not been put in place to support the content contributors.
If you look to a CMS to solve your website maintenance issues, you will be disappointed.
9. CMS不是一劳永逸的解决方案
我的许多客户对CMS（内容管理系统）有非常不切实际的期望。那些没建CMS的，认为它可以解决所有的内容困境；而建了CMS的，则抱怨它，因为它没有达到预期效果！
的确，CMS可以带来很多好处，包括：
* 减少补充内容的技术壁垒
* 让更多的人来添加和编辑内容，
* 促进更快的更新
* 允许更大的控制。
然而，许多CMS没有它们主人所想的那般灵活。他们不能满足网站管理上不断变化的需求。网站管理人员也抱怨说，他们的CMS很难使用。然而，在许多情况下，这是因为那些使用者没有得到足够的训练，或没有完全足够地使用它。
总之，CMS可能会使内容很容易地被更新，但并不确保内容被不断更新，或确保内容的质量是可以接受的。许多以CMS为基础的网站上仍然有过时的内容或很差的内容。这是因为内部流程没有到位地支持内容投递者。
如果寄希望用CMS解决你网站维护的所有问题，你会感到失望的。
