If you are interested in adding interactive features to your site but lack the technology, you may want to consider migrating your site to Drupal, a highly customized open source content management (CMS) system.
Why Drupal? Drupal can be customized and expanded to meet the specific needs of each organization. Its flexibility and scalability have made it the preferred framework for a large number and diverse sites, including business websites, social networks, online communities, personal sites and intranets.
Features and functionality: the additional Drupal modules and extensions available allow you to integrate several features and functions, such as: e-commerce, news sources, event calendars, photo galleries, blogs, forums, social networks, SEO and many more. Drupal can even be integrated with other software programs, such as a Customer visitor management check-in kiosk system.
Content management: Drupal's web-based administrative features allow even non-technical users to easily publish, manage and organize site information through a web browser. To preserve the content's integrity, user roles and permissions can be defined to control the access and capabilities of different types of users.
Design and structural flexibility: With Drupal, the design and structural options are almost limitless. You can easily find packaged design themes, create custom themes, or migrate an existing website design. Drupal also allows users to create a site structure that meets their unique needs with custom content types, hierarchy, taxonomy, display rules and features.
Scalability: Drupal can be expanded and scaled to fit almost any need, from a small 20-page personal website to a high-traffic multifunctional company. Drupal can even support multiple linked sites or microsites with a single deployment.
Web Accessibility: refers to the tools and techniques that make the Internet accessible to everyone, including the disabled. Following accessibility guidelines increases a site's usability and also optimizes the way search engines see it. There are several standard Drupal themes and systems available that are designed to specifically comply with Web accessibility guidelines.
Internet form is constantly changing and this development has weakened the value of traditional and static websites. Fixed content and design can reduce web traffic and generate selfless visitors. By migrating your site to a CMS like Drupal, you can apply an "always beta" approach where every web page is subject to changes and improvements at all times. This allows you to constantly evaluate performance and better align your site to your audiences and needs.
