Websites can be enormously powerful tools to publicize your organization, distribute information, foster community, and communicate internally. However, it’s difficult to know what projects are really worth your time and money. Alder Consulting will work with you to ensure that your resources are devoted to creating precisely the website that will best serve your mission. We can help you to:

• Determine how (or if) the internet can help you achieve your mission more effectively.
• Work with your organization and target audience(s) to understand what's needed.
• Define creative ways to meet the needs within a feasible schedule and budget.
• Diagram all aspects of the site—to allow your staff to review and comment before anything is built.
• Find the tools—such as online donation or email newsletter tools—that will work best for your site.
• Create graphic designs and text and that will effectively speak to your target audience.
• Build pages and database backed functionality using easily maintainable code.
• Test all functionality on all target browsers.
• Ensure that you can easily use, maintain, and monitor your website or application.

Alder helped DreamYard, an organization which partners artists with New York City public schools, create a website that helps teachers everywhere integrate the arts into their curriculums.
