New Web Site Leverages Power of the Internet to Foster a Vibrant Downtown Houston
HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwire - March 24, 2008) - The Houston Downtown Alliance has launched a
new and interactive Web site for people who live, work or play in downtown
Houston with the help of Schipul - The Web Marketing Company
(www.schipul.com). The new site, www.downtownhouston.org, will serve as a
central information source regarding where to go and what to do.
Houston Downtown Alliance is a broad-based civic organization dedicated to
promoting, advocating and participating in a vital and vibrant city core.
The new Web site, designed by Schipul and powered by Tendenci® association
management software (www.tendenci.com), includes numerous components that
conveniently deliver value to Alliance members as well as downtown workers
and residents.
"The upgraded Houston Downtown Alliance Web site is an important step in
advancing our mission of promoting a vibrant downtown Houston through
events, membership and promotional activities," said Andrew Huang,
President of the Houston Downtown Alliance. "We expect our online calendar
of events, which is overflowing with fun and informative activities, will
be a favorite for anyone who lives, works or plays downtown."
With Tendenci's highly intuitive content management system (CMS), Houston
Downtown Alliance can quickly and easily make site updates without the
inconvenience going through a Web site administrator. Becoming a member of
Houston Downtown Alliance has never been easier with the upgraded Web
site's convenient and secure online registration and payment.
The Houston Downtown Alliance's new Web site also enables site visitors to
subscribe to its e-newsletter and makes it possible for staff to create an
e-newsletter with a few mouse clicks. Visitors to the Web site can also
explore opportunities for sponsorships and subscribe to receive updates
through Really Simple Syndication (RSS), which is integrated throughout the
new site.
