Does Your Association Need A BETTER Website? 5 Tips

What Are The Needs Of Your Association?

Associations can represent anything from education to farms to professional organizations. Association differs from non-profits in that it exists for the sole purpose of providing products and services for the needs of its members, and non-profits focus on their mission.
5 Quick Tips To Help You Build Your Association Website.
   1. Choose the right Company. - The EZ Web Solutions is the perfect company to build your association's website.

We will help you create a website that reflects your brand's products and services.
   2. Design with your brand in mind. - Your branding should be the same across all media types print, digital, and promotional items. It would be best if you relied on keeping the primary key elements the same:
  • Color
  • Professional Logo 
  • Tag Lines
  • Images
  • Fonts

Branding your website will make it recognizable with the other marking you are doing and boost your professionalism. Consistency builds trust, and your members know they are within the proper organization online. Uniform branding will strengthen your efforts to grow your association and drive members to the right online destination they intend to reach. 
   3. Allow them to Apply and Pay Online - You may want to screen your members for many reasons. A custom online form can help you gather all the information you need. Once the member is approved, you can send them a link to a password-protected page to pay for their membership online. Yes! We can use eCommerce to capture payments.
    4. Create A Members Only Resource Area  - Once members join, give them something in return immediately. One way is to develop a secure page just for members. You might offer a member directory, job board, or logos that can use for digital and print media to promote the organization. A library of industry-specific resources and events they might be interested in will give members even more incentive to join your association. 
    5. Optimize for an Easy User Experience. (UX) - Your association's website should be accessible to everyone regardless of ability. By optimizing your website for accessibility, you are communicating an inclusive atmosphere, and that is something your organization strives for and values. It takes a little more thought, time, and budget, but the effort will be worth it.
  • Make it Load fast and mobile-friendly.
  • Use images and elements that have a high contrast
  • Include captions and transcripts on multimedia elements.
  • Add alt text to all images so they are screen reader friendly.
  • Use easy-to-read fonts and font colors that contrast.

Adding an accessibility widget to your website that allows users to customize their experience.

Add a live social media feed on your website and links to your profile in an easily accessed website area. Create posts frequently on various platforms and write blogs to keep members informed. Posting twice a week is ideal; it will keep you in their mind and active online.
