Drupal is a strong contender as an investment in an enterprise-grade content management system. It continues to scoop one high profile build after another.

An excellent example of a Drupal website is BBC Good Food, a social cooking platform.

Drupal developers rapidly build sites which are flexible, dependable and scalable.

Drupal websites benefit from an increasingly powerful array of feature-filled modules available to plug in directly to your website.

With front-end editing and admin skins, the interface is very user friendly.

It's a more intelligent version of the widely-used Wordpress CMS, favoured by grown-up companies wanting to build and scale their own custom features with ease.

Drupal requires custom development help in order to best utilise the powerful database, to 'featurise' custom modules, and to tweak the complex system underlying a Drupal build. This shouldn't put you off, however. It is this very factor which makes Drupal such a clever choice for an enterprise-grade website.

Drupal is the platform which doesn't shy away from mad ideas, and it doesn't break the bank either! 

There are situations in which a Drupal site can be built without a developer on hand, but these are few and far between.

A word of warning: Drupal site builds can be attempted by someone with a reasonable understanding of the web (think html, css, javascript and php). In such cases the site is often built without regard for ‘best practice’ and something as simple as a database error can crash the whole site and render it irrecoverable.

It's for this reason that site back-ups come as standard with any 3B Drupal projects!

The "End Game", or at least the beginning of the "End Game" as regards the "digital unification" programme for Motor Sport Magazine has been to migrate the pre-existing content from Wordpress to the new Drupal installation.

The latest feature in the on-going “unification” programme for the Motor Sport magazine website(s) is the restyling of their mammoth archive resource – every issue of the magazine going back to it’s inception in the 1920s lovingly scanned, OCR’d and annotated is now delivered in the fully-responsive and beautiful new template we designed for their Database in August 2015.

Some projects, especially where measurable & quantifiable ROIs are key, require an extended “Discovery Phase” during which existing analytics and user journeys can be poured over and strategies extrapolated, and this is especially true of any project specifically involving “Conversion Optimisation”.

Every now and then a job comes our way that very quickly becomes a “labour of love” for us. The Motor Sport Magazine database is one such project and we are just delighted with the work and our new client.
