Two New Client Websites The
Advantage of Using Drupal as a Content Management System (CMS)
Jonathan
Myron, president and founder of Dragonwell Media,
is an AXICOM partner and recently designed websites for two AXICOM
clients, Tough Talk Coach
and Third Sector
Staffing, using Drupal, an up and coming open source content
management platform for websites. Tough Talk Coach helps
individuals deal with the uncomfortable interactions and discussions
that they face in their lives. Third Sector Staffing is a placement
agency for non-profits. Make sure to visit their websites to learn more
about the business themselves and the features of Drupal. If your
website is in need of some updating, Drupal is definitely worth
considering.  One of the most unique features of the Tough Talk Coach website is the avatar of the Tough Talk Coach, Esther Bleuel, speaking as you click on the tabs. For example, when you click on the Process tab, she'll tell you about the process as you read. It's so interactive! It also has a restricted member entry. Like many other websites designed by Jonathan, there is an area for a blog. Blogs are increasingly important to help with website search engine optimization. The AXICOM website, designed by Jonathan Myron, has its blog as a direct feed into the main page of the website, in fact. Blogs provide new and fresh content and are crucial for keeping your website as high as possible on Google.
 Third Sector Staffing has two parts or portals, if you will. One is for the non-profits to find a professional and the other is for the professional to find an assignment. In both cases, there's a form to fill out to register and then the information is added to the system.
The advantage of Drupal is that it is based on modules so that various blocks can be easily integrated into the website. And, it is more user-friendly than some other web programs so that the user can easily add information. For example, it's easy to integrate social media links into Drupal.
