#acmcomputerprinceton #siggraph
Share

This talk will explore a website design story. A nonprofit group, Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC) [a locally-headquartered, national nonprofit offering trusted information and community support], redesigned its complex website to better serve users while maintaining crucial SEO (Search Engine Optimization) traffic.

This case study will explain how strategic brand and UX considerations can motivate a unique approach to menus and user flow. The redesign was able to boost KPIs without sacrificing brand messaging. The talk will also briefly explore the technical side of a seamless SEO transition. It is especially useful for anyone tasked with reshaping a content-heavy site, and you will walk away with practical takeaways and ideas to implement in your own work.

(NOTE: We are **not** our normal room in the CS building this year - this meeting's room [Friend Center 004] is in the lower level of the Friend Center - enter on William St.)
