Website Set Up (CMS-Based)

Project details

What we need
  • Set up of a new website using a Content Management System (CMS) like Wordpress, Squarespace, Joomla, Drupal, or Weebly
  • Training to ensure Organization's staff members can update content and manage the site post-launch
  • Note: We recommend that you do a Website Content Plan project first, so that you have all the content ready for your new CMS-based site. A CMS-based website can be maintained and updated easily - no coding required!
Additional details

We just finished a UX project and have files for a newly designed website (images, Fisca, etc). We need a professional who can convert to HTML and then to WordPress.

What we have in place
  • We currently have the files for a newly designed website, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a dedicated staff member who will work with you, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $17,827 , allowing us to reinvest in much-needed public health work

Our new website will be the hub for news and resources for our members.

Testimonials

Read the Impact Story
Working with Martin was one of the best experiences of our coalition during our time with Catch-A-Fire (possibly "the" best). The first thing I found to appreciate was his commitment to our project. Martin worked quickly and checked in with me often about the notable progress he made week by week. He also provided weekly reports that itemized and identified activities and completions; this was excellent and something no one has provided to us before. His knowledge and skills are excellent and his dedication to our project was consistent. There were several instances that required him to do research and learn more about some of the steps required to implement and integrate our new website; all of these things he did without question or delay. Thanks to him we have our new site with new features all up and running. TFAV gives 5-stars to his work on this project.

Working for TFAV through Catch-A-Fire has been the first project for me at Catch-A-Fire. Working with Will from TFAV on this has been a great pleasure. From the well-organized meetings, the really professional preparation of the UX design, to the always courteous and friendly communication with Will himself. I really liked it and thank you very much for the trust.
