We recently launched a new Wordpress based website and are looking for someone to help us maintain and improve it to hopefully be able to use it to get more leads/sales. Our hope is to continue to update and revamp our existing website to attract more customers.

We would like to work with students to develop a new website that is easy to maintain while providing an appealing interface for users.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

• Researching different site-building tools and their associated advantages / disadvantages.
• Conducting a needs analysis to determine which platform is most suitable.
• Building a website, with our assistance in providing the content.
• Providing training on updating and maintaining the website.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

• Testing prototypes with customers and refining ideas with feedback.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

• Understanding of website platform options
• Identification of the most suitable platform
• Development of a website using the most suitable tool
• Recommendations for website maintenance

Bonus steps would include:

• Testing the website with users and making improvements based on user input

Final deliverables should include

• A website prototype.
• A final report.

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

• Our current products and website design
• Our customer and industry insights
• Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
