A distinguished group of Thoracic surgeons wanted to create an online non-profit platform for their members to stay updated about meetings and topics discussed at meetings. Also the group wanted to increase the member base of their club and grow its exposure in the field. The group also needed an online system where all schedules would be displayed along with ability to become a member.
The concept for the design and development of this project was very straight to the point and concise. We needed to create an attractive and user friendly website that had certain dynamic and static features as well as a membership area. We used ASP.NET, Java script, CSS, and MSSQL to create the platform architecture. The front-end functions of the site were included static pages displaying information regarding history of the group, committee, and the club’s constitution. The dynamic sections were the ones designed to show future meetings, meeting archive and photographs of meetings. We created the ability for users to become member of NYGTSC through an online payment option using the Authorise.net payment gateway that accepts credit cards. Through the administration section we allowed for the management of members, transactions, meetings and subscription amount.
Some of the immediate effects of the site design the Club started to have a noticeable increase in the number of members. The meetings received positive responses and reviews from those joining. The easy to use administration section for managing meetings, and archiving the photos allowed for a very hassle free and enjoyable experience for the club organizers.
"In an industry where appearance is critical, we noticed our old website had lost its luster. Patients often come to us to improve their smile, knowing that first impression can have so much impact. We wanted to accomplish the same thing with our website. We know it is often the first impression for new patients and if it lacks that appeal in its appearance, we can’t convince patients we know how to make them look great. ...
"I've been a client of Vladimir and Webmaster Studio, and its predecessor Web Design New York, for five years. I could not be a happier customer. They are fast, flexible, and fairly priced. Their design input is good, their attitude is consistently patient and friendly, and they answer calls and emails immediately."
"I have recommended Webmaster Studio to others who need to develop a new website. They understand the client's needs, are reliable and efficient in meeting deadlines, and were always available for follow-up after the project was completed."
