Digital Branding & Communications Agency

TheSite.org

YouthNet is the UK’s first exclusively online charity. They guide and support young people, enabling them to make informed choices, participate in society and achieve their ambitions.

We have worked with Youthnet for a number of years on various projects including microsites and Facebook Competition Apps.  This time, they asked us to create a brand new design and information architecture for TheSite.org.  We worked with their team closely to produce a fresh new look that easier for both the user and the internal team to navigate.  The web developers at Youthnet are currently doing a great job implementing the changes.

Congrats on the new website – looks great! We’re all really pleased with it and early feedback from users is also positive. Thanks for all your help.

What was the problem?

TheSite.org has many users and provide 16-24 year olds with very useful content as their users navigate their young lives.  Youthnet wanted to work with their core users and us to create a new website based on the content that exists.  They needed something that’s fresher, more engaging and easier to navigate.  It needs to be a site that users can jump into and find the answers, but also navigate at their leisure to get a deeper understanding of any one subject.

And how did we solve it?

We focussed on user stories.  After meeting with the internal team at Youthnet working on TheSite.org we discussed issues that have found over the years.  These range from admin issues, to content to user issues.  Anything from the colour systems and font styling in place, to loading times and information architecture.  We glad to say the users were at the centre of the whole process, feeding back information on what’s needed to make the site more useful and engaging.
