We Work Like Dogs To Make Clients Happy!

We feel so lucky to have found Jill and her team at 2 Dogs Design! We are a small nonprofit and desperately needed some expertise to guide us in a long-overdue website refresh. From our first conversation Jill interpreted exactly what we were looking for – and went above and beyond to recommend features and layouts that we didn’t realize we needed. Her sense of humour, passion and keen eye for detail made the refresh fun (it’s true!) and easy. Long after the website has launched Jill is still available to us at anytime for extra support when we need it. We would recommend Jill and 2 Dogs Design wholeheartedly for any non-profit taking on the daunting task of redoing their website.

Choosing The Right Web Development Agency For Your Nonprofit!

This is one of the biggest decisions your nonprofit will have to make!

Choosing the right web design agency for charity organizations is not always easy and could lead to a not so great experience and website if you do not take the time do your due diligence.

Below we have outline some of the most important things to consider as you begin the process of hiring an agency.

  • Does the agency have nonprofit experience?
  • How will the web agency communicate with you?
  • Do they custom build or use templates?
  • Verify their references and check the internet for reviews!
  • Who will input and layout your content?
  • If you have to input the content – how hard will it be?
  • Will they ensure your website is accessible and responsive?
  • Do they offer consulting to help you with SEO and general best practices for non-profits?
  • Is hosting going to be done by them or do they have a referral?
  • What is their style of work – are they fun – serious, knowing this will ensure you have a good relationship!
  • Your website is critical to gaining new supporters – increasing donations and getting the word out about your mission. If you do not take the time to find the perfect partner, these things will be hard to accomplish!
  • Make sure you and your team have a clear vision before your reach out to potential web partners or issue an RFP.

Some things you should know about your website before starting the process include:

  • Goals for new website
  • Branding – colors, fonts etc.
  • Expected launch date
  • Budget range
  • Full list of required functionality
  • What will represent a successful relaunch (increased donations, newsletter signups, more traffic etc.)
  • What do you like on your current website – what do you dislike
  • Competitors – what do you like or not like about their websites

The more you know and can advise potential web agency partners on – the better the proposals you will receive!
