NMC Launches Raleigh Political Website

New Media Campaigns is proud to launch a political website for Keith Sutton, who is running for the Wake County School Board.  He needed a website that could clearly communicate his passion for education. 

Sutton, who filled an unexpired term two years ago, seeks to continue his involvement in the local school system.  He stresses issues such as retention of high-quality teachers, strengthening budgets, and improving student achievement.   

The new website, which launched in under two weeks, features social media integration to draw visitors from multiple platforms.  Social media plugins allow website visitors to see his campaign’s latest status updates and tweets.  These unique components appear on every webpage’s sidebar, stressing the importance of social media to Sutton’s campaign.

The site highlights Sutton’s involvement in the community with a homepage rotation, complete with pictures and captions describing why he is the ideal candidate.  The images show him speaking at public events, conversing with prominent public officials, and overseeing school events.  

The site, designed around a non-traditional purple and gold theme, directs visitors to sign up on multiple online forms, which build his email list and encourages volunteering.  Furthermore, a news feed can easily be updated to showcase articles about Sutton and his campaign.  

The NMC team was proud to help Keith Sutton with his candidacy and they wish him the best in the upcoming election. NMC, located in Carrboro, NC, has created over 500 websites including politicalbusiness,  governmental and nonprofit websites.
