Why organizations in the county need a strong website
People in Erie County make decisions on small screens, often between tasks or while traveling. A site that is slow, confusing, or written for desktop only will lose those visitors. A strategic website focuses on speed, clear calls to action, and layouts that make key tasks obvious on phones and tablets. For a clear local starting point, see website design for Erie County organizations.
Local audiences expect convenient methods of contact, easy booking or purchasing processes, and service descriptions. For community organizations, accessibility and the areas of their services will be the most important factors that help gain trust from the target audience. For retailers and restaurants, quick pages and convenient options for ordering help reduce any friction during the decision-making process.

How we work
- Discovery and research
- User experience and visual design
- Content and development
- Testing, launch, and support
We gather requirements, review analytics, and map user flows on all devices. Conducting local market research and studying the competitors will allow us to find out what will work for the residents of Erie County.
We will design wireframes and prototypes with an emphasis on common tasks. The UX will be designed for easy navigation using thumb and good readability of the typography. The visual design will reflect the personality of the brand while saving resources.
Content strategy will help with defining the message and calls to action. The development will use maintainable code and be integrated with the desired content management system.
Prior to the launch, the site will be tested in the conditions similar to those typical for the area. Post-launch we will perform testing, monitoring, training, and support so that the site meets its requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you cater for mobile users in Erie County using cell phone networks?
We optimize media and defer any non-essential scripts to increase the speed of page loading even on the slowest network. We create designs that highlight common user tasks on each page and allow visitors to make a call, make a reservation or purchase anything in a few clicks. We also perform page testing on local devices and networks.
Do you have a solution for small organizations or teams that need an easy update?
Yes, we offer content management systems depending on the needs of your organization. You can go for a classic CMS with our templates or use headless CMS when you want multichannel content publication. You also get training materials and one on one trainings so your local employees are able to manage the website independently.
How do you cater for accessibility and inclusivity of the residents of Erie County?
We conduct accessibility testing in the process of designing and developing a website for you. Our tests include testing for contrasts and keyboard navigation, adding alt text and structuring web pages. When it comes to public benefit organizations, it becomes easier for more residents to access their services.
Will the new site integrate with our existing systems like booking systems or CRMs?
Usually yes. We perform mapping of all the integrations necessary at the discovery stage and develop strategies for data flow.
