5 ways to improve your school website design right now

Multimedia

When designing a school or any other website it is important to incorporate visual features as they tend to be an efficient way in your school’s presentation. Make sure to add appropriate pictures and videos that convey the right message and tell a story about your school, classes, students and staff. Remember to place it where appropriate so as not to fit the content on the page, and also, do not put too many multimedia files as they can slow down the loading of your website.

 Social media

Integrating social media buttons into the website is one of the most helpful tools to promote any shareable section of your website, such as events page, blog posts, etc. helping you inform and interact with your followers. Moreover, it is most likely that the majority of your potential students will use social media to search for schools nearby, so make sure your profiles are neat, active and regularly updated.

Mobile ready

As the number of people who mostly use smartphones to browse the internet is growing by the year, you want to make sure that your website has a responsive design for desktop computers, and smartphones alike in order to provide each visitor to your website with the best experience.
