When choosing a company to develop your charity website there are some important aspects you want to consider. DreamCo Design has put together a list of tips and general advice while you contemplate having a website for your charity developed professionally.
1. Make Sure the Solution is Custom
When setting up a charity website, be sure that the solution you are purchasing is a customized one. A lot of developers just fit everyone into one generic package or offer some type of flat rate pricing. A professional charity web design solution demands a website that is crafted specifically for your charity. Remember that a website isn't a website anymore than a house is a house or a car is a car.
2. Forget about the Site Builder Tools
Those do-it-yourself tools offered up by the multi-million dollar domain name companies are nothing more than a ploy to keep you on board. Do you really think you will be able to run a successful charity with one of those things? Probably not. The phrase you get what you pay for rings true when considering this type of thing. These tools should be cast aside and not even considered if you are serious about being successful.
3. Understand the Importance of Good Content
Bad images and poorly written text results in bad looking websites that people click off of right away. DreamCo Design can help you with professional content writing, photography, and stock photos should you not have good material but remember that there is nothing more influential on your website's look and feel than the quality of the content.
4. Keep your Goals in Mind and Keep it Simple
Each and every charity web design solution we develop is built around the goals that the charity has. Make sure you are mindful of the pages and programming you want to get out of the site and more specifically, what you are hoping to accomplish with it. Relaying your goals will help you get a website designed the right way.
5. Review the Company You Choose
Does the company you are about to work with have any experience in developing charity web design solutions? What is their track record like? Learn to use trustworthy review sources like the BBB as well as things like client testimonials. While most review board on the internet are totally worthless, organizations like the Better Business Bureau are in place for a reason. It never hurts to check out the reputation a company has the legit way.
6. Keep the Website Updated There is nothing worse than seeing a professional charity website design project take a turn for the worse because it has outdated content. Make sure you give the site the attention it needs on an ongoing basis by keeping the content up to date for things like news, events, and other areas when it makes sense.
