Splash Page Redesign - AMC
Once I became more comfortable with SharePoint Designer (The State Bar of Wisconsin’s CMS), I tackled redesigning our conference’s splash pages. Every conference hosted by the State Bar is given a microsite and a splash page to more easily advertise the site without requiring the full regiment of content.
The splash pages of prior were made to advertise video replays, and display the image of the upcoming conference. This was done only through the navigation bar.
I chose to keep the navigation bar as an option, but opted to create two new buttons: one to preview the prior site, where replays could be accessed, and a brand-new one to add the upcoming event to the user’s calendar.
The goal here is to give users a chance to plan ahead. Adding the event to their calendar is not a commitment, but as the event veers closer, it gives the user a gentle reminder that the conference may be worthwhile checking out.
