Society website design

Oriental Ceramic Society

The leading international society for the appreciation of Asian Art.

About The Project

The Oriental Ceramic Society, a leading international society for the study and appreciation of Asian art, needed a robust online platform. We transformed their existing WordPress site into a comprehensive society website design, incorporating a sophisticated membership system. This new feature allows for a members-only section, payment processing, and member administration, significantly enhancing user engagement and management efficiency.

Enhanced Functionality and User Experience

Our society website design for The Oriental Ceramic Society includes an integrated event booking system. This feature publicises upcoming lectures and tours, enabling members to easily book and allocate tickets. By streamlining these processes, we improved the overall functionality and user experience, ensuring that members can access and engage with society events seamlessly.

Modern and User-Friendly Interface

In developing this society website design, we focused on creating a modern and user-friendly interface. The new site not only looks visually appealing but also provides intuitive navigation, making it easier for members to find information and participate in society activities. The updated design reflects the prestige of The Oriental Ceramic Society and supports its mission of promoting Asian art appreciation and study.

What you need to know

How long does it take to build a society website?

If you already have a logo and the content (words and pictures) to go on your new society website, it will take approximately two weeks to build. A new logo will take about a week if starting from scratch and would need to be done first, as this provides the colours that will be used on your website. We often find that writing the words to go on a society website often take longer than expected but we would provide guidance on this.

Do we need a logo for our society website?

Technically speaking you don’t need a logo for a society website. That said, a professionally designed logo looks fab on a website and can really help you look credible. We can help create you a new look with our logo design service.

How do we edit our society website once it is built?

We’ll provide full instructions on how to edit the words and photos on your society website as part of the build costs. For major changes, we can provide a very competitive quote.

Will our society website work on a mobile?

With over half of all internet browsing and searches done with a mobile phone or tablet, it is vital your society website works on these devices. A properly designed society website should do just that and change its appearance depending on the screen size. All of our society websites work on all devices.

How much does a society website cost?

Websites are quoted on a basis of how much work needs doing. A very basic society website would start at £499. We know we are not the cheapest but strongly believe we provide a solid product, backed up by excellent customer service (see our reviews).

Can you organise website hosting and email for our society?

As a full service society website design company we provide a comprehensive range of hosting solutions for society websites. As well as hosting we can also look after email accounts for your society.

How can we make our society website stand out from the crowd?

Photos are key to making your society website look good. Visitors are more likely to contact you if you have good quality photos. Investing in a photographer will pay dividends in the long run, as well as providing you with photos for any printed material or social media posts.

What SEO do you need for a society website?

To get found, your society website will most likely need to be on the first page of Google or Bing. This will require your website to have some search engine optimisation carried out on it. All of our society websites have the on-page SEO done while being built. You may need off-page SEO after the website goes live to get the best result. We can help with that too.
