DESCRIPTION
Your nonprofit's homepage is the first impression your constituents have of your organization. It lets site visitors know who you are and what drives your mission. So what kind of impression are you making? Join us April 29 at 11:00a C.T. for this month's Luminate Community webinar, where we'll cover The 10 Rules of Effective Homepage Design followed by live evaluations of homepages from volunteers in attendance. After attending, you'll know the hallmarks of a good homepage design and how to effectively critique your own. This session is a favorite at our bbcon conference, and we're excited to present it virtually. You won't want to miss it!
