Project: Website Strategy, Design and Development
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.

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
