Website Design & Hosting Services

Built for everyday union work—not tech headaches

Your union’s website should help members, not slow staff down. We build and host WordPress websites that make it easy to publish news, events, agreements, and alerts in minutes. Clear menus, readable pages, and fast load times mean members find what they need in a couple of clicks instead of calling the office.

With Union Impact, your public site and member portal become part of one system, not another standalone project. Your website connects to your data, messaging tools, and portals so updates go further with less work.

Structure first, then design

Most union sites look like they grew one meeting at a time. Pages get added, menus get crowded, and no one is sure what can safely be deleted. We take the opposite approach.

We start by mapping the core jobs your website needs to do, then build structure around those jobs before we talk about colors and images.

Common content types include:

• News and alerts
• Events and trainings
• Agreements, forms, and policies
• Leadership and staff pages
• Locals, units, or districts
• Apprenticeships, jobs, and endorsements

 

Each type is defined once and reused everywhere. Editors fill out fields like date, location, file, and unit, and the website handles layout automatically. That means fewer broken pages, fewer layout mistakes, and less training for new staff.

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.

Jeffery J. Owen – Business ManagerU.A. Local 32
“The Union Impact team has improved the efficiency of our Market Recovery Program (MRP) by providing automated processing tools for our contractors and business office. This web-based tool has reduced the time required to process paper requests and time cards…
[their] team worked with our Local Union to provide a system specific to our business requirements. The program allows us to track the distribution of funds and helps ensure the contractors comply with the MRP’s rules. The program allows us to track every dollar allocated to each contractor, project, or member. We can recommend Union Impact to any Local Union looking to do the same.”

Joe Dotson – Database Manager Dispatch Systems AdministratorSW Regional Council of Carpenters
“It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Union Impact as a cloud based software provider for unions…
Union Impact has helped us run a better market recovery program. The ability to do real-time tracking of job development and representative activities and the platform’s integrated nature has allowed us to free up man power that was once used on writing reports, consolidating information, and tracking jobs and contractors”

Irish Barber – Business RepresentativeIATSE Local 665
“We have used Union Impact software since January 2017, and it has been a lifesaver when trying to find members to fill labor requests…
The software sends a dispatch by texting and emailing qualified members, and they can respond from their phone. I have been able to fill every call at a moment’s notice. The first month using it, the program sent out 700 texts to members. Our members are happier because they are working, and our employers are happier because they have experienced workers on site. Win-Win!”

Louis A. Picani – President & Principal OfficerTeamster Local 456
“We have been using Union Impact for quite some time and our Local couldn’t be happier with all the options this system has to offer. They have created a program that is very comprehensive and useful. Their customer service department has gone to great depths to assist us with all our needs and has made several changes to accommodate us without hesitation.”

Communicate with Members in Seconds

Text and Email Alerts

• Send targeted texts or emails by craft, employer, unit, or region.
• Promote events with one created record instead of separate posts in multiple tools.
• Highlight urgent information with an alert bar at the top of the homepage.

Members can update their own contact information through secure portals, keeping your lists accurate. Everything ties back to one system instead of scattered spreadsheets.

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.

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.
