🚀 WordPress Website Redesign for a Global Health Research Organization
I redesigned and rebuilt Global Health Otherwise's WordPress website in just 10 days, improving navigation, performance, SEO, and user experience while providing ongoing website management.
🌍 Project Overview
Global Health Otherwise (GHO) is an organization dedicated to advancing conversations around global health, research, and equity.
They needed an urgent website redesign that better reflected their mission, improved usability, and provided a professional online presence for researchers, partners, and supporters.
Beyond the redesign, they also needed someone to manage the website after launch, ensuring it remained secure, updated, and fully functional.
🎯 The Challenge
The existing website suffered from several usability and performance issues:
✅ Cluttered layouts that made important information difficult to find.
✅ Broken links and non-functional buttons.
✅ Incomplete pages, including Publications and Donate.
✅ Poor mobile experience and limited SEO optimization.
✅ A strict 10-day deadline for redesign and launch.
The challenge was to completely transform the website within a short timeframe while creating a solid foundation for long-term growth.
