It's a new year!!! What now?

The new year is upon us and now it's time to make some decisions for your organization. You've already forecasted your upcoming year but did you remember your website? Anymore, it's not just enough to build a website. It's got to stay fresh in the minds of your donors. How about a redesign? I'm not saying you have to redesign it every year but you should consider giving it a face lift every couple of years. Technology changes from year to year so you want to be sure that your website is up to it's top potential. So how do you know if you need a redesign? Definitely look at how long it has been. If it's been two or three years, consider it. If you are using a content management system like Joomla or Wordpress, this is even easier than you know. There are so many fantastic templates out there that have been designed for these CMS you can easily purchase one and use it. In some cases, you may need some assistance from a designer/developer to maybe make sure it's loaded correctly and all the features are up-to-date. A good designer can also take a template you purchased and make modifications to match your brand a bit better. Just consult with your favorite designer for options on this.

New and Improved: Healing Hands Ministries

Healing Hands Ministries was chosen by NPower Texas to receive a free website makeover. Their site at the time had minimal content and was utilizing the free Mac website tool. They wanted a site that would clearly state their mission, one that was unique in design and easy to update. The site was designed to match the marketing materials and utilizes Joomla to manage the content. The organization hopes to improve donations so they can continue to further their mission to help those in the community with medical and dental care.

New and Improved: The Children's Shelter

The Children's Shelter was another winner in the NPower Texas Web Makeover Giveway. After my discussions with them, I realized that they were in desperate need to have their site redesigned. At the time, it had been some years since this had been done. Their existing site consisted of a layout that was all large, blocky images which weighed down the website and didn't allow for them to change it or make updates to. After thinking about it, I designed a fun website that focused on children and the programs CS provides to those in need. The site was put into a Joomla CMS so that it would be easy for them to update and manage. Visit the website
