Berkshire-Pioneer RC&D Connects With Clients

Published on Jan 15, 2008

As a non-profit organization, Berkshire-Pioneer RC&D helps citizens stimulate economic opportunities, conserve natural resources and improve the general quality of life in rural areas. The new website helps the organization meet these goals by connecting agricultural producers to information about current programs, providing details about the organization itself and giving users the ability to apply for programs online.

Working closely with the organization, Tunnel 7 launched the new website within a compressed timeline and also met the low-bandwith requirements of the project (many users reside in areas where broadband connections are unavailable). Databases were created to collect data from online questionnaires and applications, and a phased approach for further development of the website is currently underway.

Why Web Standards?

Simple visual consistency

Because content and style are separated a style change made in one location affects content across the entire site.

Better search engine results

With the code being much more compact, search engines can easily read content and will display better results for you.

Website maintenance less expensive

With visual appearance controlled by a single file maintenance becomes a breeze. No more changing dozens of individual pages.

Accessibility to all devices

Cell phones, pdas, screen readers — a standards based website will render better in these than a traditional tables based website.
