Our Role

”
The nonprofit came to ArcStone with a bloated website and suffering user experience. The framework lacked functionality and was difficult for both users and staff to use.
They needed a navigable website that showcased their mission. We developed a WordPress site that serves as an inviting digital space for families. The organization has a robust library of research and resources. The website needed to present this information in a usable manner.
The nonprofit's request began a dynamic partnership and resulted in an impressive website. After the redesign, we continued the partnership with social media management and strategy.
We had done a few projects with Children & Nature Network before the website redesign. This gave us insight into their brand and mission, but also helped build trust and rapport. It allowed us to better understand their hopes and dreams as an organization.
We began with a blueprint. We reviewed the website analytics, identified key audiences, resources and objectives, website functionality, and third-party integrations.
Midway through the project, we helped them execute both a live and virtual event. The event was new for Children & Nature Network and there was internal confusion on how to pull it off. We were able to deliver through strong project management and live Zoom facilitators. The event went off without a hitch and provided a framework on how to approach future virtual events.
The new website launched in October 2020 and since, we've seen positive metrics across the board. Engagement metrics like bounce rate, pages per session, and time on site all increased. The site structure makes for a seamless user experience. It's simple for users to browse, filter, and search the robust resource library.
Social media reach and engagement have improved as well.
