New Media? What's New Media?

One of the things that I am working on with my new media team is the design of new web pages for the mission. Some of these sites are aimed at listeners or recipients of our ministries. Others are aimed at people who might support, serve (volunteer), or just want more information about our ministry.

We have a number of web sites that are on our list for upgrades this year. The first one was launched a couple of weeks ago. You can see it by clicking on www.hospitalvozandes.org. This page is for our hospital in Quito. It is in Spanish but you will get a feel for the page anyway. The page was created for people seeking hospital services.

My team did not create the page. That was done mostly by the marketing department at the hospital, but we were asked to review the page just before it was launched and see if there were any improvements that we could suggest. So we did and sure enough, there were a number of things that we could suggest that makes the page easier to use. Some of our suggestions will make the page accessible from smart phones. Others make it easier to find key information. Still others make it easier to update the information so that the page does not become out-dated so quickly.

We are helping our ministries take full advantage of the web.
