Why use Contribute?

Whether you're a content provider or a site administrator, Contribute can save you time and streamline your web-content maintenance process. Contribute is the easiest way to update content for any web site, including sites built with Dreamweaver as well as other web tools. With Contribute, non-technical users can make changes without knowing HTML. Site administrators will now have much greater control over the site's style, layout, accessibility, and adherence to web standards.

For site administrators:

You empower content owners to update web site content quickly and easily themselves -- while you still control your site's style, templates, layout, permissions, and code.

You can now delegate content maintenance, so you can focus on more-advanced design and development aspects of the site.

Content maintenance can be delegated because Contribute permits content owners to easily update in three simple steps: just browse, edit, and publish.

Set up and use with ease. Your contributors can be using Contribute in minutes. If they can browse a site and edit/save a Word document, they will have no problem using Contribute.

You manage access and site permissions. Contribute automatically maintains both design standards and web site functionality while protecting your code.

Advanced Macromedia Dreamweaver MX integration means your content providers can use Contribute -- a much easier program than Dreamweaver -- while you continue to maintain your site with Dreamweaver.

For content providers:

You're a content specialist and you have no desire to learn Dreamweaver or anything about HTML. With Contribute, this is no longer a problem. Now you can easily update and manage web content yourself, without learning HTML or a sophisticated web site management program.

The easy and streamlined workflow makes changing and revising pages quick, and you do it yourself -- no more waiting for the technical staff.

Edit your site in three easy steps: Just browse to a page from within Contribute, make your edits, and then publish your updates.

Drag and drop import from the programs you already use. Easily incorporate content from Microsoft Word and Excel into your pages.

Collaborate with your web team. Work together safely on the same site. Share draft versions of pages to review before publishing them.

Work offline from home or on the road, and then post updates when you reconnect to the Internet.
