Small Government Website Design
We help public entities and small government transition to modern websites built for longevity.
Websites for small government and public entities are crucial to the communities they serve and carry a unique set of challenges. When you’re organization is ready to update, Made Right Media will help you get there.
Our Process
1
Understand the Objectives and Audience
2
Create an Intuitive Content Strategy
Once we understand the organization’s objectives and audience, we can then analyze its content and devise the best way to organize it so that it’s simple to create, simple to publish, simple to find, and simple to archive. The website should be a place for information, not a point of frustration.
3
Create a Design Framework Built to Last
Next, we create a design system that is intuitive, easy on the eyes, ADA accessible, SEO friendly, and most importantly, scalable. Public websites grow and change over time, undergoing multiple staff changes, and regulation changes. Maintaining the look and feel of the website is crucial to its longevity and the organization’s ROI on rebuilding the website.
4
Migrate and Optimize Content
Unfortunately, migrating content is never as easy as ‘export/import’. Luckily, Made Right Media’s team has facilitated the transition of hundreds of pages of content edited by dozens of staff from different departments. During the migration, we ensure everything is formatted correctly for ADA accessibility, SEO best practices, and of course, usability.
5
Train the Team
Once the website is complete, Made Right Media records several screencasts showing how to perform basic tasks, and also conducts live training for any staff members managing the website. After that training, a second round of screencasts can be made for any follow up questions or tasks.
6
Support and Advise
With the project complete and the website live, Made Right Media transitions to a support role. Whether we’re helping your team take the reins, or we’re doing the updates for you, our tiered support team not only knows WordPress, but they know your particular website. We strive to ensure the website continues to serve it’s purpose for years to come.
Highlights
Transition Management
Rebuilding a public website usually means managing multiple stakeholders, large teams, stacks of information, and many years of bloat. Our team is experienced in helping manage that change. We bring an outsider’s perspective, manage expectations, and have a proven process to collaboratively move things along.
Specialists in ADA Accessible Websites
ADA accessibility for public websites is a dynamic, emerging field that is more important now than ever. Our team has extensive expertise in building ADA-accessible websites and implementing the tools available to bring sites into compliance. We also support ADA compliance for PDFs, Word Documents, and PowerPoint Presentations.
Built on WordPress
WordPress is the go-to website platform for public entities and small government because it’s powerful, familiar, open source, and widely supported. We’ve been building almost exclusively with WordPress for 10+ years.
Amazing Support You Can Rely On
Your organization needs to be confident that the website is secure, up-to-date, and able to adapt to your objectives. Made Right Media offers several options for tiered, ongoing support to ensure your team has the skills and expertise they need to update and maintain the website. US-based and readily available, you can raise a ticket, pick up the phone, or jump on a video call.

Researching companies to help build out my first website was a daunting task but after talking with MRM about what I was looking for and their approach, I knew they were the right choice for me. I couldn’t be happier with the results. I have already recommended MRM to several people.

Roger, Kenzie, and the MRM Team were a pleasure to work with in constructing our website and generating marketing/advertising tools to help get Building Blocks Agency, LLC up and running.

MRM created our previous website and we loved it! So when we needed an updated design we knew where to go. They are excellent to work with and very professional. In addition, we felt the fees to create the site were very reasonable and well worth it. Thank you MRM!

MRM made us feel alright! Moving my Yoga Teacher Training online was a daunting task for me. With the understanding and patient guidance from Roger and his team, we were up and running in even less time than I thought. Also, the product is beautiful and easy to use and their support exceeds my expectations.

I hired Roger and his team at MRM to completely redesign my blog and website because I knew after first meeting with him that he was as excited about and committed to the success of my project as I was. I would tell anyone who needs a highly professional website project done that they will be very pleased with the work of MRM.
