# Publish in Drupal, Post Everywhere
Drupal excels at the Create Once, Publish Everywhere (COPE) model— using structured content to enable the same individual piece of content to flow into a variety of contexts.
Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere (POSSE) is a related Indieweb principle, which is more specific to publishing content first on your own site, and then to the places where it can reach a wider your audience. Drupal has great potential in making it easy for content editors to govern content in multiple presentations and post it across multiple platforms.
Even a couple years ago, it was difficult to make good recommendations on how to approach this complex featureset. Today, however, such solutions are increasingly flexible and easy to configure. As the technical and cultural impact of the fragmentation of our social media networks play out, continued innovation by the Drupal community, our ability to practice POSSE in Drupal is looking better than ever.
In addition to briefing on why now is such an opportune moment, this session will demonstrate easy ways to syndicate content from your Drupal site, and provide guidance on which methods are suitable for various use cases. Expect to leave with a good understanding of how to write your content in one place and send it everywhere, with no external services required.
