Considering the various features of your new site, please check all of the components that you wish to incorporate. A note about some of the features listed below- it is expected that more people will be getting information from their phones than from their computers over the next couple of years. Smartphones such as the iPhone, Blackberry, Droid, Nexus One, etc. are gaining in popularity at a rapid pace. Furthermore, social networking sites such as Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, etc. are essential for any organization to reach customers, supporters and constituents with their message in a consistent and comprehensive way. The Sitemason CMS has the capability of accommodating you with a mobile version of your site, including a special iPhone application version of your site, as well as providing you with a "enter it once" way of updating news on your site and automatically updating your social networking pages. As you consider how you need to reach people with your online presence, you will be well served by thinking beyond your website and contemplating the social networking and mobile aspects of your content management strategy. Okay, back to the survey....

Briefly describe how site content updates will need to be authorized in your organization

What is your desired launch date for the new site?*

What is your desired budget range for the entire site set-up (please remember to include design, conversion of design to web template, content creation, content migration, individual web page configuration and set-up, testing, custom programming needs, third party software integration, commerce, etc.)

For sites with more than one level of navigation, please attach a "site map" or an outline that identifies the main level of navigation links and all sub-levels of navigation in the hierarchical levels in the way that they should be arranged. The outline should identify how pages link to each other. Your "site map" can be in the form of a flow chart or  a "table of contents." You can upload any type of file (Word Doc., PDF, Excel, etc.) It is essential that every level of the desired navigation be fully identified in order for the site architecture to be properly established.

If you need help with this, please skip this step and indicate that you would like to discuss the creation of a site map in the comments box below.
