Overview
An engineering design company needed a corporate website in several languages. We migrated it from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7, built galleries and a language-aware slider, added inquiry and download-registration forms, kept the site updated for years, and later worked on a new multilingual site on Squarespace.
What we built
- Migration of the site from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7, including the theme and views
- Multi-language support: translated content and menus, and language-specific news and sliders
- Image galleries on the home page and inner pages that adapt to the page's content type
- Inquiry forms, and registration forms that capture customer details when a file is downloaded
- Google Analytics and conversion tracking
- A slider driven by content type and language, and an inquiry block shown to visitors who arrive from ads
- SEO: keyword research, meta titles and descriptions, broken-link fixes and image alt text
- Regular Drupal core and module updates, deployment and server configuration
- Email list integration and CAPTCHA on forms
- Work on a new multilingual website on Squarespace
