  • Project Summary

    Rotary District 9350 requires a re-build of their existing website, which is currently with WordPress. The site requires a complete rebuild due to its extremely poor performance - page loads at or exceeding 5 seconds on a good wifi connection - as well as overall poor User Experience (UX) design and lack of relevant imagery.

    This proposal outlines two possible solutions to fix this problem, catering for different timelines and budgets allowances.

THe Sitemap

Page

URL & Purpose

Static page

Home page

/

This is arguably the most important page on the site. Most projects start from here and set the rest of the site's tone from the design decisions made while building out this page.

Static page

About page

/about

This page builds trust in the brand.

Static page

FAQs page

/faqs

This page is a great place to answer as many commonly asked questions as possible - not only to alleviate concerns from potential members or users in general, but these questions have become essential to being more visible to AI search bots as well.

Static page

Causes page

/causes/

An aggregate page that brings together various causes for easy scanning and donations by site visitors.

CMS Template Page

Causes detail page

/causes/cause-name

A page dedicated to each cause with more detail, imagery and content around the importance of the cause. A structured, repeatable template that can be used over and over again with near-infinite causes could prove to be a real asset to Rotary and would allow sharing of individual Cause pages as needed.

New page proposed

Static page

Act4Impact page

/act4impact

A page dedicated to this initiative.

Static page

Stories

to replace "news"

/stories/

Instead of simply "news", I recommend looking at something that can be more flexible. It doesn't necessarily have to be "Stories", though stories is nice because it can fit news as well as a host of other content themes. However, other possibilities include "Diary", "Journal", etc.

New url proposed

CMS Template Page

Stories post page

/stories/story-name

Story page template for all story articles that will be published.

Static page

Community Mediators page

/community-mediators

A page dedicated to this initiative.

Static page

Join Now page

/join-now

A page dedicated to receiving membership requests for the district.

Static page

Contact Rotary

/community-mediators

A general contact page to act as a switchboard and divert users to where they can best find information they need related to Rotary District 9350.

05

The Timeline

Option 1

~ 4-5 weeks for the build, retainer for 6 months to optimise and grow the site as much as possible.

Option 2

~ 7-10 weeks for the build, retainer for 6 months to optimise and grow the site as much as possible.
