In today’s digital age, a strong online presence is essential to the success of any business across any vertical. A good website is the cornerstone of an online presence, and one of the best ways to build a website is through a CMS (Content Management System). Drupal is one of the most popular CMS in the world, and its latest version, Drupal 10, features numerous advantages for businesses looking to improve their online presence. In this article, we’ll explore the top five reasons for businesses to migrate or adopt Drupal 10.
Drupal is a content management platform and also a powerful, popular and versatile framework that offers tools for the creation, administration and customization of websites. With each new version, Drupal improves the security, scalability and performance of the website, making it an excellent option for users in marketing areas or in general for those who must improve the performance of their sites, adopting a platform that helps improve user experience, increase website security and improve website performance.
Users in the marketing and content areas need an easy-to-use and customizable platform to publish content regularly and execute their marketing strategies. Drupal 10 significantly improves the user experience with a highly intuitive and customizable interface, allowing you to work more efficiently and quickly. Drupal 10 has improved the platform's performance by implementing better code optimization and faster page loading speeds, resulting in a better user experience and higher visitor retention on the website.
1. Greater ease of use
Drupal 10 has significantly improved the user experience, making it easier to use and learn. It means that users in charge of the digital strategy or the content of the sites will be able to work with greater efficiency and productivity. The new user interface is more intuitive and customizable, allowing users to work very efficiently and quickly.
Drupal 10 includes improvements to content editing that make it easier to create content on your website. Content blocks can be edited intuitively and efficiently, speeding up publishing time. Inline editing capabilities have also been improved, allowing users to edit and create content in real time.
2. Website performance improvements
Website performance is one of the most important factors for a good user experience. With Drupal 10, web pages load faster and provide a better user experience, resulting in greater visitor retention on your company or organization's website. Improvements have been implemented in cache management, which increases page speed and reduces the load on the server, generating an optimization of the speed of your Drupal site.
Improved website performance means publisher or marketer users can better leverage data analytics tools to improve the visibility and reach of their website. A slow loading web page can have a negative impact on user experience and conversion rate, which is why page speed is crucial for user marketers.
3. Greater security
Security is a constant concern for businesses, and Drupal 10 introduces a number of improvements to address security concerns. Drupal 10 features enhanced protection against cyberattacks and better user permissions management, thus improving Drupal's security. This is especially important for users who manage content, as they work with critical and confidential information.
Drupal 10 will also have in future versions the ability to automatically update extensions and security modules (its implementation is in an experimental state), which reduces the risk of security vulnerabilities. This is a huge advantage for marketers, as they can be sure that their website is protected from potential security threats.
4. Integration with marketing tools
Drupal 10 is designed to easily integrate with marketing tools, meaning that users in communications, marketing, or content editing can take full advantage of SEO optimization and analytics tools to improve their website’s visibility and reach. Drupal 10 offers the ability to integrate Drupal with other systems and integrate email and social media marketing tools, allowing users in communications and marketing to effectively reach their audience across multiple channels.
5. Improved accessibility
Accessibility is a critical issue for many users, especially those with disabilities. Drupal 10 has focused on improving accessibility, meaning websites can be more accessible and easier to use for everyone. Drupal 10 features improvements to screen reader support, support for W3C accessibility standards, and improvements to keyboard navigation.
