Taking the time to tag everything IS a ton of work and would take me a year+ if I did it myself. But to do so without a robust search feature would be madness. And I don't know if I can get "just" a search feature etc without just commiting to a CMS.
Ah fun problems. LOL |
the post by Carlos was great. he's a knowledgeable guy. i think you're at the decision point and have an idea of where you want to go. now you know all the pros and cons of a cms, and there's been a great discussion about retention.
your top sites probably need a cms at some point, but moving all of your sites to a cms would be a daunting project (and probably not a profitable one). if you have text on your pages, you can use a 3rd party search script and simply plug it in (maybe even Google). that would solve the tagging and search issue in a basic, cheap and fast way.
good luck!
