Essential modules

These are modules I use on every site I build:

‎Administration menu‎

Provides a menu at the top of the screen for quick acces to all areas of your site

‎Pathauto‎

Generates a friendly url depending on the title of your page

‎Backup and Migrate‎

Create manual and scheduled backups of your database and download for off-site backup or migration.

‎SEO Checklist‎

A checklist to ensure your site is search engine optimised.  It takes you through the essentials but more can be found under

‎Poormanscron‎

Drupal needs to do its own maintenance tasks such as search indexing.  This module is a very easy way to set this up.
