Background <strong>EEN</strong> Information<br />
Since 2006, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Environmental</strong> <strong>Evaluators</strong> <strong>Network</strong> has produced an annual<br />
forum that brings toge<strong>the</strong>r individuals in <strong>the</strong> fi elds of natural resource<br />
conservation and environmental management.<br />
Each year, more people<br />
participate and as <strong>the</strong> forum’s<br />
popularity has grown, so<br />
have <strong>the</strong> demands to get <strong>the</strong><br />
information out faster. As a<br />
result, <strong>the</strong> idea of a brand new<br />
website for <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> was born.<br />
Many questions were raised.<br />
How would it best serve multiple<br />
groups within <strong>the</strong> network?<br />
How could it be visually<br />
appealing? How could it help<br />
grow <strong>the</strong> forum and connect its<br />
participants?<br />
Th ey knew <strong>the</strong> website needed<br />
to be be fresh, contemporary, useful useful<br />
and interactive.<br />
With <strong>the</strong>se goals and<br />
questions in mind, <strong>the</strong> website<br />
development began.<br />

Introduction<br />
Communication is <strong>the</strong> key to many aspects of life, and that holds true in a<br />
personal, parental or even a business relationship. So why does <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> need a<br />
website? Well, what better way can anyone communicate information and visuals<br />
in one place, instantly?<br />
<strong>Website</strong>s allow people and organizations share <strong>the</strong>ir goals and information<br />
through many forms of interaction. From written articles, to interactive logic<br />
models, to data visualization and pictures, anyone can get a quick and clear idea<br />
of what that person or organization is all about.<br />
The <strong>EEN</strong> knew it was time to join <strong>the</strong> online world. It has been an exciting time<br />
of expansion, and like all growing organizations, so were <strong>the</strong> demands on <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>EEN</strong> to meet <strong>the</strong>ir participants’ needs.<br />
This presentation will give an overview of <strong>the</strong> goals sought out by <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> to<br />
bring multiple, unique and complex environmental organizations toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />
online and show how <strong>the</strong> core elements of website development were successfully<br />
implemented. First, <strong>Environmental</strong><strong>Evaluators</strong>.net displays many features found<br />
in today’s popular website design styles. Next, it uses simple graphic design<br />
principles to achieve visual appeal. Third, <strong>the</strong> website encourages interaction<br />
from its participants through blogs and social networks to share ideas and<br />
comments. Finally, search engine optimization, both on and off page, increases<br />
website traffic in order to continue to grow <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong>.<br />

experience. PrettyPhoto displays <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>EEN</strong> posts, pages, videos, iframes,<br />
etc in a neat and orderly grid format<br />
for quick visual reference.<br />

Visual Appeal<br />
Smooth navigation<br />
The <strong>EEN</strong> website uses smooth and stylish drop down bars and rollover colors to<br />
display sub page navigation. It has <strong>the</strong> capability to add deeper levels if needed.<br />
This gives <strong>the</strong> feeling that <strong>the</strong> website is well organized.<br />

attention being given to <strong>the</strong> text, just simple black copy on a white background,<br />
plus blue colored links. Also, <strong>the</strong> headers are easily distinguished from <strong>the</strong> body<br />
copy with <strong>the</strong> use of varying font sizes and weights.<br />

<strong>Developing</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> <strong>Website</strong>: What can we make it do for you?
<strong>Website</strong> color scheme<br />
Considering <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong>’s target audience, <strong>the</strong> website’s color scheme refl ects an<br />
organic, natural and soft palette related to environmental evaluation. Blues,<br />
greens, grays...it’s nature, yet business.<br />
Page Speed<br />
Created on <strong>the</strong> Wordpress platform, <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website uses PHP coding which<br />
helps a visitor’s browser load pages of <strong>the</strong> website much faster. Minimal imagery<br />
and clean coding allow new pages to be seen quicker, keeping <strong>the</strong> visitors<br />
attention and interest focused on <strong>the</strong> content.<br />
Image effects<br />
As mentioned earlier in <strong>the</strong> Features<br />
section, <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website displays its<br />
pictures and videos in an attractive way<br />
with <strong>the</strong> use of shadows and refl ections.<br />

<strong>Developing</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> <strong>Website</strong>: What can we make it do for you?
Search Engine Optimization<br />
WordPress website<br />
Th e <strong>EEN</strong> website is built on <strong>the</strong> WordPress<br />
platform, a powerful content management<br />
system. It is an open source blog tool powered by<br />
PHP and MySQL, and it off ers a search engine<br />
friendly and clean permalink structure. Th e <strong>EEN</strong><br />
website is easy to edit, update, delete and add content as needed. As an added<br />
bonus, everyone visiting <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website can be an author. WordPress off ers<br />
administrative controls that allow visitors to post <strong>the</strong>ir own content and links.<br />
WordPress plugins<br />
Plugins off er <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website <strong>the</strong> ability to quickly add new features and enhance<br />
<strong>the</strong> visitor’s experience. Twitter feeds, RSS feeds, contact forms in a footer, Google<br />
Earth, Share Th is, etc., are all examples of plugins. Can you think of any feature<br />
that would benefi t your organization if it was displayed on <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website? If so,<br />
chances are <strong>the</strong>re’s a plugin for that!<br />

Keywords<br />
Keywords are words or phrases that tell <strong>the</strong> search engines what your website is<br />
all about. When a person goes to Google.com, for example, and does a search for<br />
your keyword, your website pops up in <strong>the</strong> search results. Getting to <strong>the</strong> top of<br />
those listings takes a lot of work by <strong>the</strong> website developer, but if done correctly,<br />
your website is always rewarded.<br />
Here are a list of keywords that <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website uses:<br />
environmental evaluators network, evaluation, environmental evaluation, conservation,<br />
logic models, data visualization<br />
On-page optimizing<br />
One or a variety of <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website’s chosen keywords appear on almost every<br />
page or post. They are strategically used to make sure <strong>the</strong> search engines give <strong>the</strong><br />
website a high quality score, so that in turn, <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> is rewarded with higher<br />
search results.<br />
Some examples of where keywords are placed are: <strong>the</strong> first image at <strong>the</strong> top has<br />
<strong>the</strong>m in <strong>the</strong> ALT tag, sometimes in <strong>the</strong> image’s filename, every header (H1 tag),<br />
once in <strong>the</strong> first 30 words of first paragraph, 3 or 4 times in <strong>the</strong> body of <strong>the</strong> article<br />
or post and at least one of those linking back to <strong>the</strong> mainpage, once in <strong>the</strong> last<br />
paragraph, and a few related keywords used in <strong>the</strong> H2 tags.<br />
O<strong>the</strong>r forms of optimization integrated in <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website is <strong>the</strong> use of internal<br />
links. This is basically where keywords are hyperlinked to different pages or posts<br />
within <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website.<br />
Finally, a simple plugin called <strong>the</strong> All-In-One-SEO package helps ensure all posts<br />
and pages have <strong>the</strong> correct meta data and description text in <strong>the</strong> Head tags.<br />
Inbound links<br />
Aside from visitors finding <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website via Google’s search results, <strong>the</strong>re are<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r ways <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> is considering to develop inbound links (backlinks):<br />
• Newsgroups • Blog commenting • Forum participation<br />
• Posting videos • Pay-per-click • Article writing<br />
• Paid or trading banner/link advertising<br />

<strong>Developing</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> <strong>Website</strong>: What can we make it do for you?
Google Analytics<br />
Using a short snippet of code, Google’s incredible website traffi c monitoring<br />
solution, Google Analytics, gives <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website developer access to rich<br />
insights of <strong>the</strong> website’s performance.<br />
With this information, <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> can determine what pages its visitors frequent<br />
<strong>the</strong> most, how long <strong>the</strong>y stay on <strong>the</strong> website, how <strong>the</strong>y found <strong>the</strong> website, etc.<br />
From <strong>the</strong>re, <strong>the</strong> possibilities are endless.<br />
Should <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> open <strong>the</strong> door for advertising by it’s participants? If so, targetspecifi<br />
c ads can be created on pages that match your organization’s service or<br />
product.<br />
Knowing which pages are mostly visited, <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> can better serve its participants<br />
by posting more related content. New tweets, pictures and videos can be created,<br />
posted on o<strong>the</strong>r websites, and most importantly, link back to <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website to<br />
read more about that popular topic.<br />

Traffic generated from social<br />
networking<br />
Social networking is critical for a<br />
company. Here’s a fun fact. If <strong>the</strong><br />
number of people who have Facebook<br />
accounts was thought of as a population,<br />
Facebook would be <strong>the</strong> 3rd largest<br />
country in <strong>the</strong> world!<br />
That’s a lot of people chatting online and sharing stories with <strong>the</strong>ir friends. When<br />
post a comment about something bad that happened to you by Company XYZ,<br />
pretty much everyone in your network is going to take your side and not use that<br />
company from now on. The future of advertising is word of mouth.<br />
The <strong>EEN</strong> hopes to provide a website that everyone going online will be excited<br />
about visiting. If one person finds something interesting on <strong>the</strong> website and<br />
shares it with his network, via Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc., chances are<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r people are going to see that posting. His/her friend could be interested and<br />
check it out for <strong>the</strong>mselves and <strong>the</strong> cycle begins.<br />
Off-page marketing of <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong><br />
Outside of all <strong>the</strong> free and paid ways to generate traffic to<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website, <strong>the</strong>re are still <strong>the</strong> old-fashioned methods.<br />
• Postcards • Direct Mail • Newspaper Ads<br />
• Flyers • Brochures • Car Wraps<br />
• Billboards • Posters • Radio/Television Ads<br />
• Forums • Booklets • Much More!<br />
http://youtu.be/lFZ0z5Fm-Ng • by Socialnomics09<br />
Even though Internet usage is growing leaps and bounds, <strong>the</strong>se methods of<br />
company advertising is still <strong>the</strong> standard. People are familiar with holding a<br />
brochure, reading <strong>the</strong> newspaper, watching television, etc.<br />
All of <strong>the</strong>se help increase <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> exposure. It’s about branding. Whenever<br />
someone sees <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> logo, <strong>the</strong>y will see <strong>the</strong> <strong>EEN</strong> website address beside it!<br />
How is your company advertising its website, gaining new<br />
visitors and keeping your existing ones coming back?<br />
