Headless or not? Choosing a CMS next to Shopify
When a separate CMS pays off, and when Shopify’s own content tools are enough.
Shopify’s metaobjects and blog cover many brands well. A headless CMS earns its place when content feeds several channels or several teams.
Look at who writes, how often, and where content appears before choosing a stack.
If you do go headless, keep products in Shopify and sync them into the CMS, never the other way round.
