.Net CMS

Hi,

Does anyone know of any tutorials that would allow me to create a very simple CMS in ASP.Net?

Basically it's for a small app which displays data gathered from different systems, so i just really want things like the titles and colours of the page to be editable (hence it needs to be custom built)

Trouble is, I've never done anything like this in .Net before (although I have in PHP)

All I'm after is a quick guide, but Google points me to existing CMS's.

Thanks,

Anyone? Literally needs to read and write a few fields to a database for each page. I suppose what I'm asking for is a basic guide for this, just thought a simple CMS guide would be better!

N2 CMS or Orchard for existing.

Otherwise if you know PHP just build one in the same style using .NET and C#?

I'd suggest using ASP.Net MVC if you're looking to build a new one from scratch.

It doesn't need to be custom built. You can do this in Umbraco. Why reinvent the wheel?

Yes, here is a list - most also have tutorials on web sites/youtube
