New Websites / Redesigns

If you want to develop a new area, or redesign and expand
an existing one, here is our development process.

Numbers 1-5 can be done within your department before
meeting with us, or with our help.

1. Define your audience -
   their needs, goals, abilities and expectations
   
   
2. Define the action you want the user to take as a
   result of visiting your site
   (purchase, fill out form, call you, implement, donate, get info,
   feel connected, etc.)
   
   
3. Define your goals and uses for the website that
   might be different from the audience
   (internal communications, PR, legal, forms, etc.)
   
   
4. View, compare and discuss other similar websites
   for ideas and inspiration.
   (make sure you bookmark those sites so you can share them
   with us)
   
   
5. Create a preliminary list of needed content for the
   web site
   

   Starting with #6 at the latest Internet Services will take the lead in the development.

6. Refine the list into an effective navigation structure
   
   
7. Assign development of content within your department
   
   
8. Set timeline for development and launch
   
   
9. Implement, test and launch
