CMS Publishing Workflow

A CMS publishing workflow is the sequence of steps used to move website content from an idea to a live page. A small service business might draft a new gutter-cleaning page, have a manager verify the service details, review the preview, and schedule publication. A useful workflow assigns responsibility for writing, accuracy checks, approval, and future updates. Publishing permissions can differ from editing permissions, so not everyone who can change copy should necessarily push changes live. Unlike a single content approval, the workflow covers the entire process, including what happens when a published page needs correction.
