Safeguarding the Grand Canyon and the Colorado Plateau

The Grand Canyon Trust advocates for healthy land, water, air and communities in Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. The Trust collaborates with scientists and federal agencies, follows the direction of Native communities and mobilizes volunteers to work towards conservation and environmental justice.

Grand Canyon Trust is a longtime client of Orbit. They most recently came back to us for help migrating their website from Drupal 7 to WordPress.

The challenge

Database migration & functional improvements

The Trust team came to Orbit for help migrating their site to a different platform. They also requested our help with writing updated SEO and conversion copy, refreshing their design and making other functional upgrades along the way. Some key challenges with this project were:

  • Migrating a large database of content
  • Strict messaging guidelines
  • Improving conversions (volunteers/donations)
  • Adhering to a limited budget and short timeline

The solution

Seamless development, design and copy upgrades

The Orbit team produced a beautiful, functional and optimized website that will attract more visitors and increase donations. Our team’s collaboration and open communication allowed us to get this website launched on time and on budget. Here are some key wins:

  • A functional, secure and easy-to-update CMS
  • Robust mega-menus that improve UX
  • Search and conversion-focused copy
  • Refreshed design and awe-inspiring imagery
