I think that the best websites are easy to use, uncluttered, load quickly and deliver their purpose clearly and succinctly. Three companies that I think do this well are United Airlines, Gu Sports and Cervelo. Of course, my new favorite site is ours. In late July our marketing and IT departments launched their work - and I couldn’t be more pleased.

We received feedback that our previous e-store needed improvement, and as a result our new site features a new integrated e-store, allowing clients to purchase select reports directly from the site and to immediately download a PDF with the safety and security of Authorize.net.

The new site’s layout puts our latest releases front and center with our new Features column. New reports and announcements with graphics and links make it easy to find out what’s going on at Evans Data, and will be updated regularly.

We decided to make our sample pages simpler and more accessible. Visitors are now invited to download a PDF of the page itself, ensuring the graphs reflect the same quality found in the physical report.

Let us know what you think. We are always looking for feedback. Our next big objective is a revamp of the Evans Data Developer Network site, where we communicate with our developer panel.
