: How many websites use CMS Is there any hard data about the percentage of sites that use some kind of a CMS, as opposed to pure hand-coded HTML/CSS? From my anecdotal experience it really

@Speyer207

Hand coded sites can be coded very quickly compared to having to make a design for a Content Management System this is because it's a lot simpler and each page can be altered separately without having to worry about breaking anything.

The main reason why CMS engines are used more than static sites isn't because the design process but the fact you can easily add content to them, from adding images, text, meta data and so forth, and because its on a CMS it updates the other pages IE if you have widgets and stuff.
