A web content management system (WCMS) is software that allows non-technical users to create and manage HTML content, databases, and dynamic websites through a web interface. It facilitates content creation, editing, and maintenance through features like templates, workflows, delegation, and version control. Content is typically stored in a database and displayed through templates. WCMSs support add-ons that provide extended capabilities and allow for collaboration through features like forums and wikis. They can operate online by processing content requests directly or offline by generating static HTML files.

•It is useful and facilitates content creation,content control,editing and web maintenance function.
•Most systems use a database to store content, metadata, or artifacts that might be needed by the 
system. Content is frequently, but not universally, stored as XML, to facilitate, reuse, and enable 
flexible presentation options.
•A presentation layer displays the content to Web­site visitors based on a set of templates. The 
templates are sometimes XSLT files
•Unlike Web­site builders, a WCMS allows non­technical users to make changes to a website with 
little training. A WCMS typically requires an experienced coder to set up and add features, but is 
primarily a Web­site maintenance tool for non­technical administrators

•Allow for a large number of people to contribute to and share stored data. 
•Control access to data, based on user roles. User roles define what information each user can view 
or edit. 
•Aid in easy storage and retrieval of data. 
•Reduce repetitive duplicate input.

•Document  management
•Content virtualization
•Content syndication
•Multilingual
Types of WCMS:
There are three major types of WCMS are:
•Offline Processing
•Online Processing:
                 Most open source WCMSs have the capability to support add­ons, which provide 
extended capabilities including forums, blog, wiki, web­stores, photo­galleries, contact­
management, etc. These are often called modules, nodes, widgets, add­ons or extensions. Add­ons 
may be based on an open­source or paid licence model.
•Hybrid System:
                Some systems combine the offline and online approaches. Some systems write out 
executable code (e.g. JSP, ASP, PHP, ColdFusion, or Perl pages) rather than just static HTML, so 
that the CMS itself does not need to be deployed on every Web server. Other hybrids operate in 
either an online or offline mode
