Accelerating Website Launches to Boost Engagement for a Leading Real Estate Organization

A leading real estate and lifestyle company struggled with delays in launching new websites, impacting project visibility and customer engagement. And because developers were needed to implement updates, marketers and editors could not create or modify content independently. This inefficiency delayed operations and limited the company’s market responsiveness. At the same time, its websites lacked interactive features, resulting in a poor user experience and lower conversion rates.

To overcome these issues, the company approached Material to build a scalable, user-friendly solution that would accelerate website launches, improve customer engagement and empower content teams with more control over site management.

  • Designed a modular architecture by integrating Acquia Site Studio with Drupal, creating a scalable and consistent framework for website development

  • Developed a standardized Drupal profile with preconfigured settings, themes and modules to streamline website deployment

  • Hosted websites on Acquia Cloud to ensure a scalable, secure and high-performance infrastructure

  • Accelerated website launches and enabled design consistency across sites by building reusable components including media galleries, hero banners, carousels, sliders, social media elements and forms within Acquia Site Studio

  • Added interactive features such as parallax effects, maps and calendars to boost user engagement while adhering to brand guidelines

  • Introduced an immersive and interactive experience with the Photo Sphere Viewer module, enabling 360-degree property views

  • Leveraged Acquia Site Studio’s drag-and-drop interface, so nontechnical users could create and edit pages effortlessly

  • Integrated Acquia DAM, a digital asset management system, to organize and streamline media storage and retrieval across multiple websites

  • Implemented a multilayered caching strategy that included Drupal Bootstrap to optimize performance for the media-heavy website

Our solution streamlined website development by leveraging prebuilt components, ensuring faster rollouts while maintaining brand compliance. Marketers and editors can now independently create and launch engaging digital experiences, including interactive project features. These enhancements significantly reduced development time and slashed time to market by 35%-40%.
