ABOUT TOWNSHIP OFFICIALS
Township Officials of Illinois is the go-to resource website for state and federal legislative agencies and townships. As a valuable source of information, the TOI website was aging in 2024. It needed a design refresh and a better user experience. The staff’s goal was to improve communication, streamline processes, and empower their communities.
WEBSITE REDESIGN FOR IMPROVED USER EXPERIENCE
The website challenge was to enhance the website design and user experience. Along with enhanced features, we set up our user-friendly content management system, LRS Antilles. As a result, TOI’s new custom website is designed to serve you better and provide an exceptional online experience.
The result is a dynamic platform that caters to the needs of their users. Here are some of the highlights:
Modern Look and Feel: The redesigned website showcases a sleek and contemporary aesthetic, creating a visually appealing environment that is easy on the eyes. The clean and organized layout ensures that you can easily find the information you need.
Feature-Rich Events Calendar: Among their most important and popular content is TOI’s annual conference. Understanding the needs of TOI’s users, the conference and events, as well as board meetings, and training sessions are easy to find. Our new events calendar offers a comprehensive overview of all the activities hosted by Township Officials of Illinois. You can now stay up-to-date with a single glance and never miss an important event again.
Enhanced Content Management System: We have implemented a cutting-edge content management system that simplifies the process of updating and managing our website. Antilles by LRS Web Solutions allows TOI to swiftly publish relevant news, articles, images, and PDFs, ensuring their users always have access to the latest information.
Easy to Navigate: TOI’s website has been designed with the user’s convenience in mind. Township officials, residents, or visitors can easily find what they’re looking for on the website. Working with TOI, the LRS team analyzed the content to ensure that the most sought-after information was readily available. This will empower their users to find needed materials quickly and easily.
E-Commerce Integration: Third-party companies were integrated into the website experience, allowing users to easily move between site content and purchasing handbooks and other materials from the TOI store.
Strong Calls to Action: TOI can show the return on their website investment with stronger calls to action on their website, encouraging users to subscribe to their newsletter and follow their social media channels
The TOI website shows that over time, websites need to be refreshed and reorganized as web design evolves, company offerings advance, and users’ expectations change. Beautiful websites can be functional and fashionable without breaking the budget.
