Why create a website for your nonprofit?

Build your online presence with a website that reflects your values

A website gives you complete freedom to manage your image and present your actions and projects. It allows you to communicate in a more structured and professional way, compared to social media. Customise your website to capture the essence of your nonprofit in every detail.

Gain visibility beyond social media

In the face of constant algorithm changes limiting the reach of your social media posts, a website ensures a stable and long-lasting presence on the internet. Gain an edge over similar or other nonprofits by boosting your SEO strategy. Your organic SEO ensures good visibility on search engines. This method ensures that your content reaches your target audience.

Centralise your information and resources

With a not-for-profit website, you can have all your resources, social media links, blog posts, upcoming events and portfolios in one place. This makes it easier for your visitors and members to access information, while strengthening community engagement.

Give your project more credibility

Having a professional website and email address shows how committed your nonprofit is. These elements are particularly key for people who are not active on social media, as they provide a more formal and professional point of contact. Your supporters, members and volunteers trust the information found on your website, whether it’s an appeal for donations, contact points, or community initiatives.

Harness the flexibility of WordPress for your website

With WordPress, you get a platform that offers many customisation options, such as displaying photo galleries of your events, sign-up or contact forms, publishing newsletters, and much more. You have full control over your site, which you can back up and export at any time.

Why and how do I create a non-profit website?

Creating a website for your nonprofit allows you to effectively share your mission, attract new members, receive donations, and promote upcoming events. Use a CMS platform to streamline the process, choose a design that fits your identity, and make sure to include clear sections to outline your actions, volunteering needs, and ways to support your cause. Your non-profit website can also help you build partnerships, obtain grants and boost visibility for your organisation.

Which software should I use to create my non-profit website?

WordPress is widely recommended for its flexibility, ease of use, and wide selection of themes and plugins that suit a variety of needs. No matter what sector you work in, creating your website will be easy with WordPress. You can create as many pages as you need, so that your members, visitors, members or volunteers can easily access the information you deem relevant.

How much does a non-profit website cost?

A non-profit website can be free, or cost up to several hundred euros per year, depending on the platform chosen, the domain name registered, the hosting plan, and the specific features (contact form, donation form, blog, ‘about’ and contact pages, events page, sign-up form, links to your social media, volunteer space, and so on). Free options are limited in functionality and customisation, while paid options offer more flexibility and support. This “à la carte” catalogue allows you to develop your website in line with the growth of your nonprofit.
