After the deployment of our Drupal development agency's new websites – droptica.pl and droptica.com – in mid-2016, we decided to improve a few things related to content optimisation, page loading speed and SEO. At the end of the year, we carried out a technical Drupal SEO audit, which enabled us to detect a certain number of shortcomings. While at it, we decided to implement the solutions recommended by Google.

To create a big, frequently updated website, you need more than just skilled editors. A solid technological foundation is also a must.  If you have a hard time choosing from the ocean of possibilities, Drupal - a versatile system of CMF-class comes to your rescue.  When you’re building an advanced website, you can choose from among many technologies.

Drupal is a bit famous for the number of database queries done against a database. When there are thousands of concurrent users to be served, the database can quickly turn into a major bottleneck. This was the case with http://kwestiasmaku.com - a very popular website with recipes. The website is visited by millions of enthusiasts of cooking. When we started our cooperation with KwestiaSmaku, we initially focused on adding new features and functionalities to the website.

This list is a handy basic tool to quickly find out how well was a Drupal webiste built. It is by no means comprehensive, as a full audit has to take into account particular websites specifics but it is a really good indicator of what you are up against. If a websites fails on many of items on this list, this should raise a red flag. If you need more information about the items here, please contact us.
