A beautiful site, stellar UX

How do your visitors feel when they visit to your website?

UX is a fancy way to say “User Experience” or what your site visitors feel when they visit you site.

It’s about your emotional connection with your audience. Of course, that emotional connection embodies many things, from organization to the images, colors, and content on your website.

We love the web!

Pro WWW Design is a sole-proprietorship located in Spring Arbor, Michigan. Founded in 2004 when web design was in its early stages, we’ve grown-up with the web.

Back in the early days, a site’s “look” was hand-coded into nearly every page. Making a change to your site’s look usually involved changing nearly ever single page.  It was a LOT  of time-consuming work!

Today we specialize in open source content management solutions, so we can help you:

  • stay up-to-date with the latest trends in design and advances in technology by separating design from content
  • focus on content strategy
  • develop a stellar UX (user experience)
  • tell your story (brand management)
  • understand your audience (analytics)
  • provide one-on-one and group site management training

Whether it’s a personal, business,  e-commerce, or a learning management system, we have the skills, experience, know-how to help you get the most bang for your buck, today and into the future.

Just some of our work.

Albion District Library WordPress Site

The ADL project began in November 2012 and went live on April 1, 2013.

The main objectives of the site were:

  • Joomla 1.5 was at end of life, so decision was made to migrate to WordPress for easier site administration by librarians, rather than migrate to Joomla 2.5
  • Design a UX (user experience) that simplifies access to key content
  • Fresh, contemporary look with rotating header graphics to advertise important events
  • Review and refresh content

Solution

Library staff selected a commercial WordPress template that represented the features they desired. In consultation with library staff, Pro WWW Design installed a development instance of WordPress and a content strategy was developed.

While staff worked on content migration from the existing Joomla 1.5 site, Pro WWW Design

  • Installed, configured and customized the template
  • Provided WordPress site administrator training
  • Installed Google Analytics
  • Configured additional permissions solution
  • Migrated and deployed the library’s 38,000 record online obituary database, to include visitor search functionality and administrator management console

When the North Central Jurisdiction was ready to refresh their site for the upcoming 2012 conference. we were ready to help. Working with the site administrator we developed a content strategy and deployed a WordPress installation and template on a development server.

When is  was time to go live, it was Pro WWW Design to the rescue! En route to the conference, the administrator didn’t have the means to copy the site to their server, so we stepped in and took care of it for him. By the time his plane had landed, his new site was ready to go!

In 2010 we partnered with Nicole Rhoads, lead developer on the project, to move the Albion District Library website from a years old FrontPage HTML site into a Joomla 1.5 content managed site. For this installation we migrated existing content, including their 30,000+ record obitiuary database that had exisited in a Microsoft Access database and custom PHP site into Joomla, as well as giving them a fresh new look, and incorporating their social media networks.
