We have a new website design coming out. So, what does that mean to you? Well, the new design will enable our towns and travelers to enter their own stories directly from the website. Smallwander staff will review the posts and approve them, keeping out the cranks. This will allow us to get more good information about cool small towns up onto the site quicker. So, there should be steadier stream of new towns added. Plus, you’ll be getting more on-the-ground information from travelers and SW staff in addition to the party-line info from the smallwander PR machine.
Our site is being redesigned by Lisa Sabin-Wilson of E. Webscapes Design, and author of WordPress for Dummies. We have known we wanted to go to a more interactive, user-generated website for about a year, but it’s taken about that long to research what system to use, decide who would design it, and build the new site. After deciding on going with a WordPress platform, I was extremely thrilled to get Lisa on board, who literally wrote the book on designing WordPress sites. She has been great to work with, and we look forward to some great new functionality with the WP platform. We thank Interactive Communications, Inc. for our current website, which did exactly what wanted during this intermediary year.
So, get ready to start sending us your stories, photos, and videos of the small, historic towns that you love. Your fellow travelers want to hear about what you have to say. Plus, we’ll be meeting with our towns to encourage them to provide more of the same.
