- The first thing you should think about your website is its purpose. You may make a list of your priorities related to your website.This questioning will be reflected, first of all, on your design and homepage. You make sure your organization’s purpose is immediately apparent and clear in your website. One should not take for granted that visitors already know about your organization.
- Photos of people who are impacted. Photos tells about your organization. Photos makes complex concepts simple.

- It is highly important to update visitors on recent activities, media coverage, upcoming events, and important developments related to your organization. It shows that the organization is constantly taking action and it provides a dynamic content to the site.You may either have a news section or a blog in your website which should be robust, updated and relevant all the time. You may also have newsletter on a regular basis and make sure people are subscribe to this newsletter. This is also another way to engage people who have visited your website and who want to be informed about your organization on a regular basis. It gives people a reason to come back to your site and also keep you connected with them.This keeps your site visible and makes it more likely that they will become more involved in the future. In addition, blogs and news centers are often quoted by other blogs and news sites. This increases the exposure of your site and will likely bring you more traffic.And constantly updated content increases your search engine visibility. This makes it easier for people actively looking for information related to your organization to find your site.
- You may also want to feature success stories on your website related to your work, from people who are impacted or from people who are involved in and have made a change with your work. Audience can relate better to a personal story.
- Website contains your non-time relevant content. Social media is time relevant and social media are an increasingly significant source of traffic for the websites. You can turn every site visitor to a promoter by adding social sharing tools like ‘Like’, ‘Tweet’ or ‘+1’ buttons. Each site visitor that clicks on these buttons exposes their friends and followers to the organization’s work. Social tools create deeper engagement, giving people good reasons to share content. Hence investment in reaching out to Social Actors pays off as social media visitors are staying longer on your site than the average visitor and looking at more pages than visitors coming from other sites.
