webflow needs assessmentOur company advertises thousands of products online. We hope to update and revamp our existing website to attract more customers.
We would like to work with students to develop a new website that is easy to maintain while providing an appealing interface for users. This can be achieved through common site building tools such as Wix, Webflow, and WordPress.
This will involve several different steps for the students, including:
- Researching different site-building tools and their associated advantages / disadvantages.
- Conducting a needs analysis to determine which platform is most suitable.
- Building a website, with our assistance in providing the content.
- Providing training on updating and maintaining the website.
Bonus steps in the process would also include:
- Testing prototypes with customers and refining ideas with feedback.
By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:
- Understanding of website platform options
- Identification of the most suitable platform
- Development of a website using the most suitable tool
- Recommendations for website maintenance
Bonus steps would include:
- Testing the website with users and making improvements based on user input
Final deliverables should include
- A website prototype.
- A final report.
Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:
- Our current products and website design
- Our customer and industry insights
- Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.

At the heart of AUA's philosophy is the African concept of Ubuntu - 'I am because you are.'
