What type of feedback are you interested in receiving?w

Thanks for asking. Looking for notes on general presentation, informativeness, and usefulness of the content.

Your site is looking good. Very impressive and informative. Good luck and have fun with your meetings.

Wow! You have put a great deal of work into your website.  Hats off to you.  You give the reader a lot of very useful information.

If you are seeing guests at every meeting then ignore everything I'm about to say.  But if your website isn't bringing in guests to the meeting then there might be too much information on a page.  I mean, most people don't read words on a website.  They skim and look at photos until something unique catches their eye.  I wonder if having a single message about your club and an invite to the meeting on the HOME page would connect better. 

Different clubs have different reasons for having a website and FTH is feature-rich.  If your purpose is to market your club then consider that your public facing pages should do that - feature the best aspects of your club, encourage readers to guest at a meeting and to join.   You might include a small bit about what Pathways is and how Pathways correlates with the meetings. You tell us about meetings but not about the purpose of them.  Be sure to present the product that you are selling.   You might talk about leadership and how your club facilitates experiential leadership opportunities.   I would also love to see more photos of your members sprinkled all over your site. 

You are off to a great start with your website.  I hope these notes help.

Thanks for the feedback. I considered building out more content-rich pages. I could flesh out the join us page using your suggestions. 

After looking at Google Analytics, I got discouraged from pouring too much energy into new pages. The home page and agenda page visits dwarf everything else by 10X-20X.

Hey Toaster,
At the risk of tooting my own horn, I invite you to check out our club site at  asc.toastmastersclubs.org . I've been busy reviving a club that basically folded during the pandemic and it is thriving. Since many of our members are new, I've invested a lot of effort in loading useful content for our members and guests. You might see some useful ideas for things to add.
