10 Great Tips For Your Nonprofit Website
www.see3.net
by See3 Communications

1. Make your site social media friendly.  Incorporate appropriate widgets, chicklets, banners, and badges onto your site.  Encourage video and photo sharing, link to your social network profiles, and make it easy for bloggers and social networkers to embed your videos and feature your banners on their web properties.  This will attract new traffic sources, retain visitors, and build community around your cause.

2. Put your most compelling content front and center.  If you have video or photos showing the work you do, use them!  A strong collection of media can help you build connections in a way that is not possible with words alone.

Attract Donors to Your Website with Search Engine Optimization
Featured GNRC Article
http://www.ephilanthropy.org/site/News2?news_iv_ct...
by Alan Sharpe

Search engines are the most common way that potential donors will find your website. A non-profit website that appears near the top of search engine results will witness a dramatic increase in traffic compared with competing websites that appear further down in the results.

Like every other charity, you want a high ranking on the search engines. Unfortunately, many charity websites appear poorly in search engine rankings-or not at all-because they are not written and designed to take advantage of how search engines work.
