We are specialize in optimizing media outlets. Our goal is to provide our clients with solutions that offer maximum usability and efficiency.
Many media outlets begin their digital journey with websites based on HTML, Javascript, and text editors. Publishing content was a complex task, relegated to the IT department.
In 1995, the need for agility in publishing led to the first CMSs: Vignette, Xpedio, and later, Drupal, the first open-source CMS.
The evolution of the internet and the explosion of blogs and social networks drove the appearance of specialized products like WordPress (2004) and Joomla (2005), but the search for differentiation and competitiveness has driven the development of increasingly versatile and demanding tools.
In our consulting processes, we observe that most media outlets use a CMS for their communication with the audience. WordPress and Drupal are the most common.
What do we find in our consulting processes?
Security problems, plugin updates, spam comments, strange emails, slow publishing, and poor agility in sharing on social networks.
WordPress and Drupal are not ideal platforms for a media outlet.
Why?
WordPress was designed for personal blogs, not for the constant publication of news with images and videos.
While it offers thousands of templates to customize the site, many are of dubious origin and increase the security risk.
The most common problems with WordPress are:
• Security:
- Vulnerable passwords and access paths.
- High rate of hacked pages.
- Security problems in plugins and add-ons.
- Open source, susceptible to attacks.
• Performance:
- Slow loading of content due to the number of plugins installed.
• Design:
- Templates limited in design and functionality.
- Complex customization, requires technical knowledge.
