Improved Website for Folly Farm Centre

Client

The Folly Farm Centre is a green conference and environmental learning centre near Bristol. It has a renowned state-of-the-art green conference venue and its main activities include arts, crafts and wildlife courses.

The challenge

The Centre wanted to improve its website content to engage the online community, as well as incorporate a Search Engine Marketing (SEM) programme and a new Web 2.0 enabled media centre.

Philip Niemand, Folly Farm Centre's Director, contacted iT4Communities to get someone who could review the website and create a report that identified the key SEM-related areas that the Folly Farm Centre should focus on.

Our help

iT4Communities volunteer Raphael Bath, reviewed the site from a commercial point of view and enhanced its usability, which gave the Folly Farm Centre the opportunity to develop its SEM programme.

In addition, Simon Day, another iT4Communities volunteer with IT contractor experience, outlined a plan to improve the website. He also gave SEM advice and general web guidance.

The results

• The Folly Farm Centre has more chances to achieve its SEM goals
• The new Folly Farm Centre's website can be seen at www.follyfarm.org

What our client said

iT4Communities is a very useful service. Simon's guidelines were excellent and came through the same day! We were impressed by the quick delivery of the high-quality review. Our SEM planning has now been successfully completed.
