Union Website Design & Hosting
Built for everyday union work—not tech headaches
Your website should help members, not slow staff down. We build on WordPress so your team can post news, events, agreements, and alerts in minutes. Clear menus, readable pages, and fast load times mean members find what they need in two clicks.
Structure first, then design
We set up content types for News/Alerts, Events/Training, Agreements/Forms, Leadership/Staff, and Locals/Units. Editors fill fields (date, file, location, unit), and the site handles layout. Fewer clicks, fewer mistakes, no broken pages.
A Website That Just Works
The Right Tools Already in Place
We set up the content types you need:
- News & Alerts
- Events & Training
- Leadership & Staff Pages
- Agreements & Forms
- Apprenticeships & Jobs
- Endorsements & FAQs
Each type is built once and re-used everywhere. Post an event and it appears on the calendar, the homepage, and in member updates automatically. Upload a form and it’s searchable by unit or employer. Everything stays organized.
Members Find It Fast
Top-task menus keep the most common needs front and center: “Pay Dues,” “Find a Form,” “Contact a Rep,” “Hiring Hall,” “Join.” Search understands union terms like dispatch or out-of-work list. Members get answers online instead of flooding your phones with the same questions.
Communicate with Members in Seconds
Text and Email Alerts
Need to reach members right now? Send a text or email to the exact group you want—by craft, employer, region, or tag. Weather alerts, picket info, safety notices, or reminders go out instantly. Members can update their own contact info through the secure portal, keeping your lists accurate.
One Post, Everywhere
You don’t need to copy and paste into multiple systems. Add news or events on the site, and push it to text, email, and even an alert bar at the top of the homepage. You’ll see who opened, who clicked, and who RSVP’d. That means less guessing, more results.
Secure Hosting and Ongoing Support
Reliable and Protected
We host and secure your site so you don’t have to worry. That means:
99.9% uptime with monitoring
Daily backups and hourly database saves
Encrypted logins with two-factor authentication
Firewalls, spam filters, and login protection
Your site stays up, fast, and safe. Members’ data is protected, and your staff doesn’t lose sleep over hacks or downtime.
Updates Done for You
We handle all WordPress, theme, and plugin updates. Old or unused plugins get cleaned out quarterly. If something critical comes up, we patch it right away. Want to test changes first? We’ll set up a staging site so your members only see polished updates, never half-finished work.

Launch, Training, and Long-Term Support
What You Get on Day One
We move your existing pages, files, and news without the chaos. Old links keep working, so members don’t hit dead ends. We launch from a staging site after a simple checklist: pages proofed, forms tested, search working, and top tasks (“Find a Form,” “Contact a Rep,” “Hiring Hall,” “Join”) verified on phone and desktop. No surprises, no downtime drama.
Your Team, Fully Equipped
We train your staff in one short session (recorded for new hires). Editors use plain fields—not free-form pages—so updates stay consistent. We set clear roles and approvals, provide a quick style guide (headings, links, images), and a simple content calendar for news and events. After launch, we handle routine tune-ups, performance checks, backups, and security—while you focus on union work. If something urgent comes up, you get a person who can fix it, not a ticket that disappears.
What Success Looks Like
Technical SEO that protects current traffic
Unions using our sites see real numbers:
More members finding forms online
Faster updates with fewer staff headaches
Alerts reaching the right crews in minutes
Less time spent on the phone answering the same questions
Last year, unions on our platform sent over 5 million texts, 2 million emails, and placed nearly a million calls—all tracked and reported. Those are actions that matter, not just page views.
Get Started Risk-Free
We start with a short call to map your top five needs. Then we migrate your content, train your staff, and launch the site. Training takes less than an hour, and we record it for new staff. You get the first month risk-free—if you’re not happy, you can walk away with no hassle.
