Creating a site, be it a microsite, regional or rethinking gwp.org should be approached methodically. This section provides some best practices and some very basic tools to help you through this proccess.
After you have identified your audience, and the content you know you must include it's time to design your site map.
(1) Assemble a library of all your key documents
(2) A report containing a list of all important documents and pages people link to on your current site
(3) Create a keyword report so you know what search terms people are using to find you
Researching your audience is critical when it comes to designing your website. You need to know who you are aiming to attract and what they are ultimately going to get from your website.
The database portal is available to all registered Regional Water Partnership users and GWPO Network Officers.
GWP.org can handle most languages with ease and a little adjustment by the admin. Automatic translations are available on every page in almost any language, however thse are tranlated by google and not by a real person, s they are not perfect. Most users have the ability to edit translations of the "real" page within the global site or their own regional or micro site.
