C#.NET simple CMS basics

I am curious about knowing, how I can make a really simple CMS in .NET with frontend editing, just like they are doing it with Sitecake fx.: http://sitecake.com (click demo link)

What I have tried:

My idea is to have a static HTML page without a database, which can be edited on the fly. So I have to first render the HTML with all it's assets, then look for for a class-name somehow.

How would you replicate this in C#?

Only one possible advice: Forget your project for now and study, study, study.

Your describing of the project show that you swim in pure fantasy.

The three are mutually exclusives. Obviously, you don't know what you talk about.

I voted 4, because your statement is inaccurate.

"Static HTML" and "without a database" are not mutually exclusive at all. The whole inquirer's statement is totally absurd (combination of tautology, incompatible statements, non-existing concepts and what not), yes, of course, even if you excluded mutually exclusive parts, but your statement is inaccurate and can potentially confuse some.

But the idea of the answer is quite good. First of all, it does contain really constructive advice.

Ok, my QA makes a few shortcuts, but you got the general idea.
Thank you.
