Simpson College

Simpson College

One of the first mobile-friendly education websites, Crowd Favorite helped unify Simpson College’s online presence. We extended WordPress to create an easy-to-manage system with per-department content permissions and an auto-updating staff roster.

First, Crowd Favorite created a foundation for a robust data architecture to house content from different colleges and departments. We then created custom post types for shared content and taxonomy groupings that were integrated with menus. When building the site, we took a “mobile first” approach by leveraging media queries, a flexible grid and creating a responsive site with custom CMS.

    Scaling Up for Success: Revitalizing National School Choice Week’s Online Experience

    When National School Choice Week (NSCW) approached Crowd Favorite for help, it was to ensure their site would be shored up before an upcoming event. In the prior year, the same event had brought enough traffic to crash the site and cause severe disruptions to the event. In 2020, when the School Choice Week event would need to be 100% virtual, the need to have a performant site was more critical than ever.

This caused an information overload problem for the more than 8,000 members of the press who looked to these sites for fresh program-related content.
