Easy Way for Non-Nerd to Manage Simple Site?

I'm not sure if this is an appropriate question for StackOverflow. I have a friend show wants a simple "Brochure Ware" web site. I could make it for him but it would be better if he could manage it himself. Are there any services out there that allow a non-technical person to create and maintain a very simple site? I'm thinking just a few pages - cont开发者_如何学运维act, about, home with some photos and general info. He also wants to sell some stuff but I'm going to suggest he does this using EBay but the web site would be a handy reference for potential customers who want to know more about him and his services.

Thanks a lot!

Cheers

You are looking for a Content Management System (CMS).

You can build your own software, try something open-source, or go the easy way, and go with SaaS: software as a service. Something that fits your needs (based on what you told us), is something like Shopify. It manages your products, orders, but also has functionality to manage static pages.

agreed with the CMS comment @Phil Hunt

if you are a true non-nerd go for the 5 minute install of wordpress

so simple. Shopify plugin?
