Our
new site has been met with wild enthusiasm, from the
top on down. What I really need to do is to give all
of you
an
enthusiastic Thank You!
I
now have a flexible, scalable design and a good working
blueprint for future improvements. You can most likely
expect to hear from me in the future."

Adams
State College, a premier public small college in Alamosa,
CO contracted Intuitive Websites to help with an overhaul
of their Website. We started with a comprehensive
Website Plan. We surveyed users from their target
markets of prospective and current students, staff
and faculty, alumni, extended studies, and community
& visitors. We conducted a comprehensive competitive
analysis of local and national colleges and universities.
Leveraging survey results, best practices, Web statistics,
sound usability and design principles, we provided
recommendations for their new site design, navigation,
and content, complete with a revised site map.
Next,
we developed three new Website designs for Adams State
to review and provide feedback. After revisions and
approvals from Adams State, we developed templates
to integrate with their CMS technology and allow their
Webmaster to take the design and run with the development.
BEFORE:
Once
the new site design was built out, we conducted user
testing. As we hoped, the users provided some suggestions
for improvements while also giving the usability and
design high marks...it pays to do the research up
front!
AFTER:

College's new home page!
ASC
is currently in the process of transitioning to their
new site design and navigation throughout the site.
