The Spyder Trap team was proud to be at The Nerdery’s Overnight Website Challenge this past weekend. Our team, the Arachnyd Webslingers, was made up of 10 Spyder Trappers, ranging from designers and developers to content specialists and project managers.

We were lucky enough to paired with River Valley Riders, a local non-profit that provides therapeutic horseback riding for children and adults with disabilities. Kathy Jo, Susan, and Jonathan were great to work with, and we were excited to put our expertise and knowledge towards helping them!

River Valley Riders wanted a a greater connection to their donors, volunteers, and participants, but their old website was difficult to navigate and didn’t match their brochures and other documents. Needless to say, our work was cutout for us!

In just 24 hours, we were able to build River Valley Riders a new website that was more intuitive, responsive, and matched perfectly with their print materials. More importantly, we built a new electronic scheduling dashboard to help coordinate their volunteers and riders. The team from River Valley Riders was very happy with the end result!

But the River Valley Riders revamp didn’t stop there! The non-profit already had a Facebook page, but we gave them new visuals to implement on their page. Also, we set them up with a new Twitter account and YouTube channel, as well as a new Google account to help manage their newly expanded social media presence. Lastly, I spent some time with Kathy Jo to help educate her on Twitter best practices and answer any of her social media questions.

While there is still some work to do before the full launch, we’re well on our way to completing a functional website with a great design. But the competition is over quite yet, and we need your help.

Head on over to the Nerdery’s Overnight Website Challenge photo album on Facebook, and like our River Valley Riders design! Voting is open until April 2, and we thank you for your support!
