Headless CMS Development in Ann Arbor — FAQ

What is a headless CMS and why use one in Ann Arbor? +

A headless CMS stores and manages content but does not dictate how it is displayed. You deliver the content to any front end via API — your website, mobile app, email, or digital signage — with a consistent editing experience for your team.

Sanity vs Contentful vs Strapi — which is best? +

Sanity: best flexibility and developer experience, ideal for content-rich sites. Contentful: best for enterprise teams needing SLAs and workflow approvals. Strapi: best for self-hosted deployments where you own your data completely. We recommend the right one based on your team, budget, and content complexity.

Can you migrate our WordPress content to a headless CMS? +

Yes. We write migration scripts that transfer your posts, pages, custom fields, images, and relationships to your new CMS. We run the migration in a staging environment first and validate everything before going live.

How do I add a new content type after launch? +

With Sanity, you add a new schema file and deploy — no database migrations needed. With Strapi, you use the admin interface or code. We document the process and conduct a training session so your team can self-serve.

Do you provide training for our content editors? +

Yes. Every headless CMS project includes a training session for your editorial team. We create a short documentation guide covering the most common tasks: creating content, managing relationships, publishing, and using preview.
