Today we continue reviewing different Flash CMS solutions and below you will find a guest post by Christian Kaegi.

Let me try to introduce the Turtlebite Flash CMS Framework. It is quite different compared to other flash cms solutions, because it does not target the so-called “no skill” user. I’ve been asked many times if it has SEO features, gadgets, ready-to-use galleries etc. The simple answer is: no. In fact it concentrates “only” in uploading/resizing pictures and editing text. It stores all data in a MySQL database and organizes everything (textfields and images) in so-called “slots”.

I didn’t want to re-invent the wheel and bring the Flash IDE to the browser. You need to have some experience in Flash. As the name “Turtlebite Flash CMS Framework” implies, it is a framework. It was built for my own needs and I use it for almost all my clients. This backend CMS framework is perfect for you if you have your flash website created any way you prefer and then want to have some parts editable for your client. You define these parts in the Turtlebite Flash CMS Framework and just connect it by using a loader class in your code. For example, if you have created a static gallery with many images, titles, description text etc. and now want your client to be able to populate this gallery, you can do so. You just have to prepare the images and textfields in the Turtlebite Flash CMS Framework, then load the data (which comes in an array) and fill your gallery.

If you need to have full SEO functionality you might want to try out the FLEB Framework. Check out this website: http://www.turbohomepage.ch. It is based on the FLEB Framework and all content is managed by the Turtlebite Flash CMS Framework.
