On January 5, 2025, Drupal 7 officially reached its end of life, marking the end of an era for one of the web’s longest-supported content management systems. In a detailed blog post on Annertech’s website, Managing Director Stella Power discusses the implications for website owners and the critical steps needed to transition smoothly.

The end of community support for Drupal 7 means no more security updates, bug fixes, or feature enhancements. While websites on Drupal 7 can still operate, Power highlights the increased risks of staying on an unsupported platform, such as heightened vulnerability to cyberattacks.

In the blog, Power encourages organizations to view this transition as an opportunity to modernize their websites. A migration to Drupal 11—or another platform—can be coupled with a redesign to enhance user experience and security. The post also provides actionable tips for maintaining search engine optimization (SEO) during the migration process.
