What is a Web Content Management System?
A Web Content Management System (WCMS) is a web application that is used to manage and control a large, dynamic collection of data on your web site. A WCMS allows users with little or no knowledge of computer programming to create, control and edit web site content. Access to the application can be restricted based on the user’s role allowing individuals to view only or add/edit as appropriate. Information is easily retrieved and a variety of framework templates can be selected – making it easy to change the look and feel of your content. A WCMS would typically be used to manage inventory for an E-commerce web site, however, it can also provide you with the option to manage the content and images on your site (WCMS) without the ongoing assistance of a web designer.
Joomla for example, is an open source content management system platform for publishing content on the internet. It is written in PHP, stores data in MySQL and includes features such as page caching, RSS feeds, printable versions of pages, news flashes, blogs, polls, search, and support for language internationalization.
PayPal Payment System can also be interfaced with joomla or OpenCart which is what we would recommend if you wanted to use it for store products to sell online, joomla is mainly used for an information WCMS site and for an E-commerce site you would use OpenCart.

PayPal is an e-commerce business allowing payments and money transfers to be made through the Internet. PayPal serves as an electronic alternative to traditional paper methods such as checks and money orders.
A PayPal account can be funded with an electronic debit from a bank account or by a credit card. The recipient of a PayPal transfer can either request a check from PayPal, establish their own PayPal deposit account or request a transfer to their bank account. PayPal is an example of a payment intermediary service that facilitates worldwide e-commerce.
PayPal performs payment processing for online vendors, auction sites, and other commercial users, for which it charges a fee. It sometimes also charges a transaction fee for receiving money (a percentage of the amount sent plus an additional fixed amount). The fees charged depend on the currency used, the payment option used, the country of the sender, the country of the recipient, the amount sent and the recipient's account type. In addition, eBay purchases made by credit card through PayPal may incur a "foreign transaction fee" if the seller is located in another country, as credit card issuers are automatically informed of the seller's country of origin.
