Website Construction (CMS-Based)

Project details

What we need
  • Development of a new website using a Content Management System (CMS)
  • Training to ensure Organization's staff members can update content and manage the site post-launch
  • Note: This project is for a website built with a Content Management System (CMS), such as Wordpress, Squarespace, Joomla, Drupal, or Weebly . A CMS-based website can be maintained and updated easily (no coding required!)
What we have in place
  • We currently have a website, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have images; videos; text content, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $16,822 , allowing us to channel money towards marketing and advertising the company.

Currently we do have a website, however, I feel with the help from an experienced web designer we could make our website more user friendly so that we can gain more traffic to our website.
