One of the great things about the Internet is that it allows small towns to compete with their larger brethren online. A dynamic city experience is but a click away.
Of course, the flip side of that benefit is the challenge that every citizen with a dial-up, cable, or satellite Internet connection expects their municipality to provide them with simple, intuitive, and usable content.
We started the Port Colborne project by forming a user council consisting of residents, business owners, city council members, and city staff. By simply asking 'What do you expect to find and do on the new web site?' we were able to accurately define user needs, prioritize content on the home page, restructure the information architecture, and provide a visual experience that sends appropriate messages to all target segments.
Here's what our client had to say about working with us:
Jonathan, Brendan and staff are professional, courteous, and have a strong knowledge base. The team at ResIM are very aware of time restraints and deadlines, deliver what is promised, and worked well in a municipal environment. I would strongly recommend this company.
