How hosting & support made a world of difference
Project Results and Impact:
Friends of Sabino Canyon (FOSC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and enhancing Sabino Canyon's natural and cultural resources. As a non-profit focused on conservation and community engagement, having a robust online presence is crucial for FOSC to connect with donors, volunteers, and the public.
Before partnering with Anchor Wave, FOSC faced challenges in managing their website effectively. They struggled with hosting issues, technical glitches, outdated content, and lacked the expertise to make necessary updates and improvements.
Anchor Wave's team took over the hosting of their website, ensuring optimal performance, security, and reliability.
FOSC no longer had to worry about technical issues. Anchor Wave's experts proactively monitored the website, addressed any issues promptly, and provided regular updates and maintenance.
With Anchor Wave's assistance, FOSC could easily update and manage their website's content. This included adding new events, news updates, and showcasing their conservation efforts effectively.
By providing top-notch hosting, technical support, training, and tools for expansion, Anchor Wave has helped FOSC focus more on their mission of conservation while effectively engaging with their audience online.
What people are saying:
“The ease of working with Anchor Wave – it's the definition of seamless. No matter what the issue- the focus from Anchor Wave has always been on a successful outcome in a timely fashion at a reasonable cost.”
– Jim Darling, President of Friends of Sabino Canyon
A little bit of backstory
Friends of Sabino Canyon is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization whose mission is to converse, protect and enhance Sabino Canyon. FOSC’s goal was to find a vendor who could painlessly support them online.
Their wish list included site maintenance, technical support, and the ability to make content changes in a timely manner. Frustrated with trying to manage a website themselves, FOSC engaged Anchor Wave to rebuild their site and manage it, knowing that they had new projects and announcements on the horizon that were vital to their organization’s growth.
Painless migration & hosting
we make it easy to move
Our experts seamlessly accessed FOSC's site and executed a smooth migration process, ensuring minimal downtime and a quick transition – we had the website up and running again the same afternoon!
After the migration, our team conducted a detailed review of the site, added security components to keep it safe, and made sure it would remain stable and functional while we completed our rebuild.
FOSC's website was equipped with an SSL certificate as part of our hosting package, ensuring secure communication and data encryption for visitors.
Wave+ warranty with managed updates
managed updates by a webmaster
Anchor Wave's Wave+ Warranty package is a comprehensive solution for maintaining, securing, and optimizing your website.
Each month, one of our expert webmasters reviews the pending updates and installs them, ensuring that the site remains safe, secure, and functional – and takes advantage of any new features or capabilities!
Partnering with Anchor Wave under the Wave+ Warranty package allows FOSC to focus on their core business activities while we take care of their online presence with expertise and dedication.
New content just as envisioned
While rebuilding the site, Anchor Wave's team fixed a number of issues with content blocks that weren't behaving quite right. The team also added a fantastic new gallery page.
As FOSC prepared for their new fundraising campaign, Anchor Wave was able to build new pages and online forms to support it, including making media and resource files available directly on the website.
Whatever the future holds, FOSC can rest assured that their vision will come to life in cohesive and exciting ways on their site!
Clear communication & support
being accessible is key
All of our team's communication goes through our brilliant Support Coordinator, who knows our clients and their needs!
We keep FOSC informed about the status of their site, and any maintenance we complete. We also share recommendations, and let them know if we notice anything amiss – our goal is to provide proactive support that stays ahead of any potential issues.
“Communication is excellent. When making changes to a website there is a great deal of ‘look' concern, time and time again Anchor Wave has been very effective in their communication- both listening and explaining – so that we got the right product.”
– Jim Darling, President of Friends of Sabino Canyon
