Drupal Website Design & Development

If you’re reading this, you’re likely comparing Drupal to other popular content management systems (WordPress?), and it’s true that Drupal looks more technically challenging up front, but there’s a reason for that. Contained in that complexity is a deeper level of functionality. Drupal contains taxonomies, content types, blocks, views, and more that all lend to a more powerful and customizable platform.

Because Drupal was built for developers by developers, it can seem intimidating, but built in a simplified Management Framework that enables non-technical users to update and maintain content across the site.

One area in particular where Drupal shines is in its ability handle really large volumes of content. Drupal can support thousands of pages and users, and updates to Drupal 8 are ever increasing page performance. Custom content types and taxonomies enable the information on your site to be entered once but simultaneously displayed in multiple places. Overall, Drupal is highly adept at handling complexity and volume.

Drupal is known for its focus on security, offering enterprise level security and reporting...and it’s for these reasons that you’ll finding government entities using Drupal (including whitehouse.gov). With constant and dependable security patches and updates, you can be confidence that Drupal will safeguard your site from potential vulnerabilities and ensure your site and features won’t go down.

Drupal makes it easy to support multiple site stakeholders with unique user permissions that allow you to control how and what people can access on your site. These user permissions are infinitely configurable, allowing editors and site administrators top level access, while other contributors and site users can have individualized access to private content.

Drupal’s ability to translate sites in multiple languages makes international communication across the globe possible. Multilingual support can be configured for each content type, or site wide depending on the organization’s needs.

Designed and developed by the Drupal open-source market, Modules extend the functionality of your website. While the Drupal Core is flexible in itself, Modules provide your site with the opportunity integrate customized features like Salesforce, event management, and more. Drupal can help bridge the gap between tools and products that you already have in place, but that aren’t working effectively together, and improve internal efficiencies.

Between smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers, it’s important that your site is designed to be responsive and scale to the size of the viewers screen. Drupal can be built and optimize your web content for responsiveness across any browser or screen size.
