What is RD-CMS?

Roman Design Content Management System (RD-CMS) is a comprehensive solution that allows to build beautifuly designed websites that are a breeze to maintain. All website contents are editable through streamlined and user-friendly interface right in your browser. 

While maintaining a user-friendly experience for web site visitors, the Roman Design Content Management System (RD-CMS) provides hassle-free web site administration and content manipulation. The interface is very easy to use, has intuitive inline help, and amazing visual WYSIWYG ("What You See Is What You Get" editor that allows you complete freedom in content layout. Not everybody is a natural designer, so there are also pre-defined page elments (text sections and images with special effects) that make it extremely easy to have beautiful pages. RD-CMS can be as easy or as deep as a particular user wants it to be.

RD-CMS works together with latest developments in rich media technology, such as Flash, streaming video, custom video and photography, 360° virtual tours and other technologies, to create the maximum impact for your website. 

“Designer CMS” concept, rich media integration

Unlike most other content management systems that are quite rigid and limited design abilities, RD-CMS is a true “designer CMS”: The framework template can be built around almost any conceivable design, and content creation is not limited with pre-defined layouts and styles. Flash, video and rich media can be easily integrated into RD-CMS.

Streamlined and easy to learn administration interface

Most editing tools are located on a single page in intuitively expandable sections. It’s as simple as logging in and clicking “Edit this page” in the main menu on the desired page. Just use the sections you need or dig in into powerful functionality of advanced features. The system is as simple or advanced as comfortable for each user.

Visual Web 2.0-style editors and interfaces

WYSIWYG (“What You See Is What You Get”) editors help to edit page contents exactly as it appears on the site. Pre-defined styles and image and media layout with advanced presentation capabilities (slideshow, photo albums, frames, reflections) coexist with free-flowing WYSIWYG editors, providing the best of both worlds: convenience and safety of predefined styles and layouts and total creative freedom when it’s called for.

Clean W3C-compliant code and SEO-transparency

RD-CMS outputs clean CEO-transparent code that is W3C compliant (HTML 4.01, CSS 2.1). Aggressive “white-hat” SEO techniques are used to ensure maximum search engine indexing efficiency. META tags for every page are editable via the administration interface. All pages have keyword-rich SEO-friendly URLs.

RD-CMS is a scalable and modular system: additional required back-end and front-end functionality can be programmed and easily plugged in into the system. I can then be activated for any page via the unified administration interface.
