Sophisticated Content Management
Keeping your website relevant, informative, and professional often means getting everyone in your organisation to contribute content. With Blackbaud NetCommunity Grow™, you get serious tools that don’t require serious web design experience to use. Your brand remains safe while your content remains fresh because you can allow content experts to write and post information in an easy WYSIWIG format, while allowing a few trusted individuals to approve what the public ultimately sees on your website.
- Click through on any page, log in, and begin editing or updating content immediately.
- Allow designated users to approve text and images authored at another time or by another user before pushing the content live on the web.
- Be alerted to changes on the website or areas requiring approval by choosing to receive email notifications when changes are made.
- Keep content creation flowing by informing content authors when content has been approved or requires editing.
- Design user friendly URLs for use in social media, print media, or Team Fundraising and manage all friendly URLs from a central location.
- Ensure photos and imagery is kept up to date with easy image management, including the ability to upload multiple images at once.
Interactive Website Management
If your website is simply a billboard for your organisation, you could be letting valuable support slip through the cracks. And if potential supporters don't feel like they’re a part of your organisation or don’t feel involved when they visit your site, there's a huge opportunity for your competition to do so and get their support, donations and loyalty. But you can prevent that from happening with Blackbaud NetCommunity Grow™.
- Build web pages based on templates to ensure consistent look-and-feel and navigation that makes it easy for your supporters to find information and stay current with what’s happening at your organisation.
- Keeping content fresh gives your supporters a reason to come back often.
- Empower your supporters with the ability to communicate through your website using interactive features like document sharing, blogs and message boards.
- Provide supporters with self-service features, such as profile updates, online event registration, and online donations and sponsorships.
Social Networking
The web has quickly evolved beyond a medium of information to a worldwide community where like-minded people can find each other, share thoughts and feelings and inspire one another to get involved in an infinite variety of activities and causes. Whether you are ready to facilitate that conversation among your own supporters or just want to learn more about what is going on in the world of Web 2.0, Blackbaud NetCommunity has the tools and the expertise to help you succeed.
Give visitors a reason to return often by providing a complete user network on your site including the ability for users to send messages, make friends or form groups and upload photos to their accounts.
- Allow website visitors to link their Blackbaud NetCommunity profiles to their Facebook accounts to allow easy picture sharing and encourage flow between the two web communities.
- Make it easier than ever for website visitors to spread your message by providing easy page sharing links for sites like Digg, del.ici.ous, and Facebook.
