On the Water

Working with editors Kevin Blinkoff and John Hotchkiss at New England-based On the Water Magazine, Bonnie Brunner and I redesigned the magazine’s website, enabling the staff to content-manage every aspect of their website through WordPress.

On the new website, On the Water needed to host a wide variety of content from the print magazine, including numerous blogs, classifieds, video archives of their TV series, and brochureware about their annual regional fishing contests. They also needed the ability to post in-house ads. With WordPress as the CMS, I made it easy for editors to manage all their content through the WordPress Dashboard.
