CMS Development
Foundation
Your CMS should work for you, not the other way around.
A well-built CMS isn't just a place to store content — it's the architecture that determines how easy or frustrating it is to keep your site current. MacPhee Design designs custom content types and structures around your organization's real workflow: how editors publish, how content connects across pages, and how the system scales as you grow. No clunky disconnected dashboards. Edit right on your live site, publish in a click.
Deliverables
- Content type design and CMS architecture
- Data relationships for cross-posting and filtered listings
- CMS template pages
- Editorial access setup and training
- Content migration if needed
