Custom Web Development
Custom Web Development for Education
Education websites serve multiple audiences simultaneously — prospective students, current students, parents, and faculty — each with different information needs and conversion goals. The best education websites we've built work as enrollment funnels and student portals simultaneously.

Custom Web Development for edtech companies, training providers, and educational institutions comes with industry-specific constraints that a generic agency won't anticipate.
- 1
Program and course pages are the highest-converting pages on education sites — most institutions have them buried under institutional navigation
- 2
Prospective student journey spans weeks or months — the site must capture email early and support long nurture sequences
- 3
Student portal features (application status, document upload, course registration) require careful identity verification and data security
- 4
Accreditation and outcomes data (graduation rates, employment rates, average salaries) are required disclosures and powerful conversion tools when surfaced prominently
Our Approach for Education
We redesign the information architecture around the enrollment funnel — making program pages, outcomes data, and application CTAs impossible to miss. Student portal features are built separately with appropriate authentication and data isolation from the marketing site.
Outcomes for Education
- Inquiry-to-application conversion rate improvements of 25–40% through funnel-focused information architecture
- Program pages ranking for '[program] [city]' and '[program] online' terms within 3–4 months of launch
- Student portals with secure document upload, application status tracking, and enrollment workflow integration
Deliverables
- Custom website or web application
- CMS integration (Sanity, Contentful, or similar)
- Performance optimization and Core Web Vitals audit
- SEO technical setup
- Cross-browser and mobile QA
Questions from Education
- Can you integrate with our Student Information System (SIS)?
- Yes. We've integrated with Ellucian, Salesforce Education Cloud, and custom SIS platforms for application data, enrollment status, and student record access. Integration complexity varies by platform — we assess this during discovery.
- Do you build course marketplace websites (like Teachable or Thinkific)?
- We build custom course marketplace platforms for institutions that need control over branding, pricing, and the learner experience beyond what off-the-shelf platforms offer. For individual instructors or small programs, we'll recommend the right hosted platform instead.
