Dance School Website Design

How to redesign two websites into one effective marketing machine?

Before working with us, the team from San Elijo Dance and Music Academy and 4S Dance Academy were duplicating their marketing efforts by managing and promoting two separate websites that were essentially sharing the same content. { ae } Design Co. approached their team with a more efficient solution that would allow them to spend less time duplicating efforts, spend more time on a solid strategy, improve their authority for increase search engine results, and reduce monthly costs on website maintenance.

Solution

Since we had been working with SEDMA for some time, we were able to proactively identify the problem for them and provide a longer term strategy that they continue to use today. We built them a custom WordPress website with dynamically populated content to help users easily see what classes they offer, the benefits of working with them. We trained their team to manage their own website for the first time and now they happily publish blog content and keep their students up to date with class changes, schedules and events. Not only has it been a great experience for them internally, but it's proven to convert more traffic into students with a much easier online registration process.
