Six Important Features of a Community Outreach Website

1. Home Page Introduction

Home Page

The homepage of any website should answer two very important questions:

1. Who are we?

and

2. What can we do for you?

 

2. Interactive Calendar

Community Connect Indiana needed to have an interactive calendar to share meeting and event information. We give you a website address to create, edit, and remove events.

Interactive Calendar

Calendar Options:

Creating events via SMS

Offer subscriptions to the calendar RSS feed

Private Calendars or limited share calendars are also available if you need them.

 

3. Request for Information Forms

Whether you are providing a service, asking for volunteers, or updating interested parties with event information, you will need a RFI form. This can protect your email address from being found and added to a spam list etc.

Contact Form

RFI Options:

Get an email as soon as you receive a message from your site

You can choose which information is required when someone completes and inquiry.

 

4. Free Resources

Share resources, and link to other valuable resources if you would like to.

Resources

This could also serve as a “Services” or “Products” page where you are able to showcase your business products and services.

 

5. Future Plans

Youth Programs

Share your plans for the future of your organization.

We do not recommend uploading pages that are “Under Construction”. However, it is perfectly acceptable to share products, services, and events that are being planned to make sure your audience comes back and check out your site again when you reveal or release new resources.

If you need volunteers or other personnel to help with a specific project, you could make mention of this on the page introducing the plans.

Let your community know you are here to stay.

 

6. Site Maps

You also will need a dynamic, automated sitemap that will send Google, Bing, and Yahoo any updates and additions to your site.

Sitemap

This is very good search engine optimization (SEO).

 

Special Thanks

    I’ve been reading a few posts and really and enjoy your writing. I’m just starting up my own blog and only hope that I can write as well and give the reader so much insight.

  6. SEO Articles says:

    We should thank you for maintaining such a useful blog. Your site was not only informative but also very artistic too. There are only few professionals who can think to write technical stuff that creatively. All of us look for information on a topic like this. I Myself went over dozens of blogs to build up on knowhow about this.Keep writing in !!

  7. What an alluring article about search engine optimization. I’m frankly dumfounded that that hasn’t been enunciated earlier to such great lengths.

  8. What’s up? I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your blog.

  9. Have you ever considered adding additional videos to your webpage to keep the viewers more involved? I just read through the whole post and it was quite good but since I am more of a visual learner, I find videos to be very helpful. I love what you guys are always up too. Keep up the excellent work. I will return to your page regularly for some of the latest post.

  10. Love the newest look. I enjoyed the content. Thanks for the great work.

    I want to thank the blogger very much not only for this post but also for his all previous efforts. I found http://www.virtualitassistants.com to be greatly interesting. I will be coming back to for more information.

  12. Thanks for making the effort to make clear the terminlogy towards the newbies!

  13. You have some really good posts on here, however it took me a while to find this blog, why dont you promote this blog more often?

  14. Wonderful Article, What I consider virtual assistant outsourcing is cost savings. The cutting down of the total cost of the assistance to the company. This will involve decreasing the scope, defining quality levels, re-pricing, re-negotiation, cost re-structuring. Entry to lower cost economies through offshoring called “labor arbitrage” generated by the wage gap between industrialized and developing nations.

  15. Excellent post. As always I enjoy reading your posts…

  16. Thanks for the post!

  17. Hopefully more people can study from this column what I have. A great contribution to the world at large
