Benefits of Nonprofit Drupal Websites

What do nearly all the charitable, voluntary, and advocacy-based organizations that compete online have in common? The need to effectively operate their websites on budgets that are, often times, limited without having to compromise on what they get in return.  Nonprofit Drupal websites  http://www.allianceinteractive.com/drupal-web-design have emerged as a white knight offering modern, flexible content management software (CMS) that is free and open source, and eliminates the problems of its counterparts.

Open Source Web Development 
Drupal is the latest open source CMS tool that allows nonprofits to tap into millions of programmers that contribute to each new module and release. Just as Wikipedia has revolutionized how we access content, Drupal offers a community-based approach for its web development software. Your nonprofit website project can tap into a global community of Drupal developers.
No Licensing Fees 
Drupal is free and offers significant cost savings vs. similarly equipped proprietary CMS solutions. While some nonprofits spend thousands a month on similarly equipped websites allowing organizations to focus on upgrades and enhancements to functionality vs just maintenance.

Smart Phone and iPad Friendly
Drupal is smart phone and iPad friendly right out of the box, giving your website immediate compatibility with the latest mobile devices. Given that nearly 30% of all searches now result from mobile traffic, your nonprofit can benefit from the flexibility Drupal offers. 

Easy of Use
No need for dedicated web professionals. Drupal solutions allow a single individual to point and click through highly intuitive menus.  This makes Drupal easy to maintain and update. Drupal was built as a community platform and offers numerous levels of permission and access that can be assigned to various users and groups to allow supervision of all editing and updating.

Secure Data Management 
Drupal allows nonprofit websites to manage their own data, such as the latest news and services. Furthermore, Drupal allows you to solicit feedback from users by generating online surveys, offering newsletter sign-ups, analyzing visitor traffic, and more.

Highly Accredited
Drupal is utilized by some of the largest nonprofits such as Amnesty International, Women’s Funding Network, Smithsonian Institution, and many more. In addition, the Nonprofit Technology Network (NTEN) has gone so far as to offer a Drupal Day Technology Conference. 

Search Engine Friendly
A challenge for any nonprofit organization is getting found online. Drupal offers a number of site and page tools that allow your content to be properly indexed by search engines.  Some examples include traditional and video sitemaps, clean urls, extensive control of page titles, and drop down selections that let you automate the synopses that are so important when sharing content.

Social Media Friendly
Pinning photos of your organization’s latest activities on Pinterest, tweeting about an event, or sharing your event on Facebook are all easily accessed from Drupal’s core suite of tools. All major social media sites have contributed modules that allow your nonprofit website to have built-in management of your interactive platforms, enabling a real two-way conversation.
