Paper Tiger concentrates on areas of Web development which offer tangible benefits for small businesses.
Many companies are now re-evaluating the Web as a method for information and media dissemination - often referred to as Web 2.0. The emphasis is on cost-savings, in addition to pure revenue generation.
Once a site has been built - it is essential that some guidance is offered, with respect to security, privacy, hosting and marketing of the website. Keeping the site in a secure location and making sure it is optimised for search engine access, is usually seen as an area to increase profits. Paper Tiger offers these services at the lowest possible cost and view them as value-added, rather than an opportunity to escalate the charges.
Initial consultation is free - and represents an exercise in expectation management - scoping what is possible within a desired, fixed budget. Friendly, but always professional guidance.

What is a Content Management System?
Software that manages documents for Web sites. It provides
for the storage, maintenance and retrieval of HTML and XML documents and all
related elements. Content management systems may be built on top of a native
XML database and typically provide publishing capabilities to export content
not only to the Web site, but to CD-ROM and print. That's the official
explanation.
In layman's terms - imagine taking a magazine and creating a list of all the
text in it, and another list with all the pictures/photographs in it. That
would represent the raw data of the magazine and it could be described in basic
terms as its 'content'.
What is missing from this list is how this raw data is presented - e.g. The
photograph of Big Ben, should appear on Page 6, above the House of
Commons article. It should be justified to the right with a descriptive passage to
the left. HTML is used across the Internet to describe how content is laid-out
or presented.
A content management system uses a database to store all the text and pictures
(and files) . It also stores all the detail about how the information should be
presented (HTML and XML) and combines the two when someone clicks on a link to
a page. These pages are created 'dynamically' when they are requested and
that's why they are sometimes referred to as 'Dynamic' websites. :: You are currently viewing this site, which was built using the Mambo content mangement system.::
