Town Websites
Montague WebWorks is a Western Massachusetts company specializing in website design and web hosting, database design, secure email, marketing advice, and Google Search Engine Optimization.
Using our own RocketFusion website software, we provide modern, mobile-friendly responsive websites that are cost-effective and simple to manage. We will build your website quickly, and train you and your staff how to maintain your website on your own — saving you money and time to update your website.
Town websites are a special case, in that there are posting requirements and transparency laws in regards to meeting agendas and minutes, as well as providing all forms and policies and other documents that residents need to access. Using our RocketFusion software makes all those tasks easy and straight forward.
Montague WebWorks currently hosts the eleven towns of Rowe, Heath, Colrain, Leyden, Charlemont, Shelburne, Gill, Montague, Conway, Leverett and Plainfield.
Content Modules in RocketFusion
RocketFusion uses a module-based workflow, with integrated Content Modules designed to accomplish specific tasks, such as Calendars, News, Photo Gallery, Online Forms, Dynamic File Areas, Frequently Asked Questions, Business Listings, the Contact Manager, and, for Towns and Cities, an Open Government Module that handles boards, their members, and their meeting agendas and minutes, and an RFP Procurement Module — all built in.
Each Content Module works a specific way, and is contained within the RocketFusion platform. A single sign-in gives you access to all Content Modules, and all Content Modules can be accessed directly from the main website navigation, and can also be attached to individual pages by category, in a variety of display modes.
And, on top of all that, some Content Modules are linked to each other, such as online forms being dynamically linked to calendar events; dynamic forms, news and calendar items being linked to the contact manager for bulk emailing; photo galleries being linked to static pages for slideshows; PayPal being embedded in the photo gallery (simple shopping cart), calendar events (to pay for tickets), and online forms (to pay for class registration).
