Why Your Drupal Site Performance Matters More Than Ever
Google's Core Web Vitals are now ranking factors that directly impact search visibility. Slow sites frustrate users, increase bounce rates, and hurt conversion metrics. For enterprise organizations, poor Drupal performance can also indicate deeper issues with site architecture, module selection, or hosting infrastructure that will only get worse as your content library grows.
Our Drupal performance audits go beyond running automated tools. We analyze your specific use patterns, content workflows, and traffic characteristics to identify optimizations that deliver real-world improvements, not just better test scores.
What's Included in a Drupal Performance Audit
- Database Analysis: Slow query identification, missing indexes, table optimization, and query optimization recommendations
- Caching Assessment: Review of Drupal's internal cache, page cache, CDN configuration, and opportunities for advanced caching with Varnish or Redis
- Module Efficiency Review: Analysis of contributed modules for known performance issues, unnecessary functionality, and opportunities for custom lightweight alternatives
- Front-End Optimization: JavaScript and CSS aggregation, image optimization, lazy loading implementation, and critical rendering path improvements
- Server Configuration: PHP settings, memory allocation, Nginx/Apache tuning, and CDN integration verification
- Mobile Performance: Responsive image implementation, mobile-specific caching strategies, and connection-aware resource loading
Performance Tuning That Delivers Measurable Results
After identifying optimization opportunities, we work with your team to implement improvements in a staged, low-risk manner. Quick wins get prioritized for immediate impact while more complex optimizations are scheduled based on your development roadmap and resource availability.
Typical results include 40-60% improvement in page load times, significant gains in Core Web Vitals scores, reduced server resource consumption, and improved user engagement metrics. For enterprise sites, these improvements often translate to measurable increases in conversion rates and revenue.
