New website for the Youth Cancer Trust
Last year we were lucky enough to meet one of the Youth Cancer Trusts trustees and were impressed by the excellent work and dedication that they offer to young people with cancer.
At the beginning of 2007 it was decided that YCT would be one of our charities for the year and that we would support them wherever and whenever possible. So when we were asked by Georgina Sheriff, director of local marketing company Sambecketts, on behalf of YCT, if we could provide a Content Management System for their website and make it meet web standards, we jumped at the chance. Director, Alex Othold started on the project straight away implementing Dub3 while colleague Kirsty Fawcett transferred the existing content from the old website to the new website.
Why did YCT choose Dub3?
You may ask why YCT chose our Dub3 CMS system over any other CMS systems. Well, here is your answer.
Dub3 is different to any other content management systems because of the following;
- Ease of use
Dub3 is built in a way which is similar to Microsoft Windows. This means that training costs are virtually zero as users do not need to learn another system in order for them to manage their website. At a recent exhibition, we found that, on average, untrained users could add a page of content to a website in under a minute and half! - Compliance with Disability Discrimination Act (DDA)
Laws relating to accessibility of services and products now apply to the Internet, yet a survey by the RNIB in 2004 found that over 80% of websites were inaccessible to users. Dub3 builds web pages which are compliant with the DDA law meaning you can have peace of mind and an increase in people accessing your website. - Built to increase your business
Dub3 has a variety of built in features which allows you to build web pages for search engines. The result of this is that you should increase your visitors and enquiries
What they said
At the beginning of 2007 we added the finishing touches to the website and it went live on Thursday 5th April. Shortly after, Brenda Clark, Founder of YCT wrote in a thank you letter to us:
"I am writing on behalf of everyone at the Youth Cancer Trust to thank you so much for providing a CMS website free of charge for the charity…We have had a successful year and we are still managing to flourish thanks to your generosity and the other help, which we receive. I believe we are now building a reputation for wonderful spirit and recognition for our project, to provide an exciting holiday for every young patient who comes to stay at Tracy Ann House, which boosts self-esteem and confidence."
Our content management system gives all of the tools necessary for businesses and website owners to build and maintain their own online presence effectively without costing the earth. 
Users of Dub3 only need to know about their industry and customers, not about web coding or design. YCT will now be able to update their news, testimonials, recent events with ease, using Dub3. This keeps the content of the website fresh and gives the ability to edit, upload, insert the information they like, when they would like to!
