Hi Thomas,
the easiest way to do what you're talking about would be to install a
CMS on the server (Content Management System)

As it's hosted with an ISP, it would have to be something you can upload
yourself, also, "free" and "open source" are nice words to hear when
convincing your clients of price and support...

Mambo is a great CMS, easy as pie to install, you just upload and go to
the site and it set's itself up, creates it's own database tables, the
works.

All you have to do is create a template that looks like your clients
site, and create a couple of users.

Of course it depends totally on the purpose and content of your clients
site as to whether Mambo will suit their needs.

Also have a look at the following CMS's - some of these are a lot more
complicated than others, and some require installation by the ISP.
