North Carolina Environmental Justice Network Website and Logo Design
As they celebrated their 24th anniversary, the North Carolina Environmental Justice Network wanted an updated logo and website that honored their roots, the work they do, and the future they fight for. Working together, we collaborated on a new logo and website that serve as a digital hub for environmental justice advocacy.
Family Crisis Support Services Website and Visual Branding
During a period of growth, Family Crisis Support Services recognized the need for a stronger visual identity and online presence. Together, we set out to create a refreshed logo and a mobile-friendly, SEO-optimized website that conveys inclusivity and support for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and homelessness. The new site makes it easier for the community to understand the issues and get involved.
Kingsport Cultural Arts Website and Logo
To reach their goal of reinvigorating the local arts scene, Kingsport Cultural Arts needed a revitalized website. The organization wanted the refreshed site to house information about their exciting new programs and initiatives, build anticipation in the community, and support their vision of Kingsport Cultural Arts as the epicenter of an invigorated cultural arts community.
Summit Leadership Capital Campaign
Summit Leadership’s 40,000-square-foot facility offers a space for leaders to gather and work. But the organization saw greater potential that could double or triple their impact. They envisioned spaces that could host everything from small meetings to large galas. To bring their vision into reality, they initiated a capital campaign. And that meant they needed flexible marketing materials to help spread the word.
Trinity Grace Farm Website
When a generous family donated land to Summit Leadership, the goal was to turn these rolling hills and woods into an accessible outdoor venue for people with differing abilities. Summit needed a website to share their vision with the community and to help raise funds for the project, which was named Trinity Grace Farm after the donors’ granddaughter.
Websites FAQs
Timelines vary depending on the size and complexity of your project, but we have the same approach to all our website projects:
Brand Benchmark (new clients) – We meet with organizational stakeholders to complete a questionnaire and come together for a 2-hour workshop to gather insights, establish goals, and ensure alignment before work starts.
Project Kickoff – We come together again to discuss website-specific goals, gain access to necessary platforms, and discuss keywords.
Content Review – For website redesign projects, stakeholders meet to review website content and structure.
Design – Broken into two phases, we’ll meet with stakeholders to review a static design concept and review the site structure. We gather feedback and move on to developing a staging site where we add functionality and refine for viewing on various devices.
Review/Testing – After the website design and development are finished, we allocate time for our team and stakeholders to conduct a thorough examination of the website’s content and functionality.
Launch and Support – Following review and any final tweaks, the website is transitioned to the hosting site. We provide post-launch training, support, and maintenance.
First, we’ll never guarantee Google’s #1 rank due to changing algorithms, and we caution you to beware of service providers that make this promise. Our approach to SEO involves:
- Keyword analysis: Identifying relevant keywords for your nonprofit organization.
- On-page SEO: Optimizing content, titles, headings, and more to align with your keywords.
- WordPress plugins: We currently use RankMath to enhance SEO performance.
- Regular content updates: We advise you on ways your organization can add fresh content to alert search engines your site is active and relevant.
