Ravenstahl for Mayor
Launched:March 9, 2009 Visit:www.lukeformayor.com
In just one week, New Media Campaigns was able to deliver a powerful website for the Pittsburgh politician
Just as their website states, the campaign team for Pittsburgh's mayor Luke Ravensthal is committed to getting it done. With the success of President Obama's campaign website, many political candidates are eager to establish a voice of their own, however, not many can boast the speed in which the Ravensthal campaign website was able to launch. In just seven days, NMC and the Ravensthal campaign worked together to plan, design, implement, and launch a comprehensive website for the Pittsburgh mayor that would provide campaign updates, opportunities to volunteer & donate, and multimedia for the people who care where the future of Pittsburgh is headed.
While we pride ourselves on the service philosophy and quick turnaround that enabled this site to launch so quickly, we realize speed isn't the only important factor when developing a campaign website. In order for a candidate's website to be successful, the site must convey the ideas, thoughts, and personality of the candidate while at the same time remain professional and easily navigable. A few clicks around the Ravensthal website and you'll see we were able to deliver just that. The black and yellow color scheme ties to Ravensthal's love of football and the Steelers, while the crisp font and clean lines of the design keep it simple and comprehensible. Drawing upon what matters to our clients and paying attention to even the most minute details is what sets us apart from our competition.
Another reason for the site's success is the campaign team's commitment to updating the content regularly through the use of our Content Management System. We believe it's important for our clients to be able to update their website without having to go through us every time. The Ravensthal campaign uses the CMS to regularly deliver news and blog updates so that the people they reach have a reason to keep coming back. This, combined with the functionality of the site, ensures the people visiting will have a good experience every time. After seven days of hard work, NMC and the Ravensthal team were able to catapult Mayor Ravensthal onto the web and deliver a website that is as committed to getting it done as the team behind it.
