Sector(s)
Bitcoin Magazine is the leading and longest-standing source of news, information, and expert commentary on Bitcoin, its underlying blockchain technology, and the crypto industry. Since 2012, it has been providing accurate, up-to-date, and relevant content devoted exclusively to the Bitcoin cryptocurrency.
About the project
Challenge:
As part of its ongoing efforts to expand reporting on Bitcoin to Eastern Europe and Central Asia, the company decided to establish a new bureau in Kyiv, Ukraine. Thus, it needed a Ukrainian version of the website. Instead of simply translating the existing site, Bitcoin Magazine wanted to build a separate platform tailored specifically for the Ukrainian audience.
Solution:
To fully meet the client’s requirements, we meticulously analyzed the US version of the magazine and used it as a foundation for the new website. We decided to use the color scheme of the parent website to maintain visual consistency. At the same time, we introduced various new features to give the Ukrainian version of the magazine a distinct identity.
As part of our web development efforts, we:
- Created the website from scratch using Drupal, making content moderation and scheduling convenient.
- Designed a user-friendly admin panel that simplifies content management.
- Set up fundamental SEO configurations, such as robots.txt, meta tags, sitemap, aliases, and redirects.
- Ensured consistency in the color scheme between the US and Ukrainian versions of the site.
Why Drupal was chosen
Drupal 9 offers a user-friendly admin panel, several moderation states, and multilingual abilities. It also allows an administartor to schedule when to publish or remove posts and much more.
