Agatha - Upper Arlington, OH

Content & Sitemap

Good morning Angela & Kristin,


I am Veronica and  I am the content strategist and main point of contact for the remainder of your new website project. My goal is to make sure the website is easy for you to edit, just as it should be easy for visitors/parishioners to navigate and find what they need.

I am so sorry that it's taken me this long to reach out to you. I have been putting together current sitemaps of your parish websites, then created a new, proposed sitemap. The new sitemap is simply adding a category (News & Events) so that 

Here are links to the current and proposed site maps. When looking at the current sitemap, feel free to strikeout (highlight, then click CTRL+Shift+5) items that you would not like to be migrated, or simply edit the document directly.

I also wanted to assure you that one of our designers will be reaching out to you soon to set up a design consultation before getting started!

Lastly, welcome to Basecamp! Basecamp is the program we use to keep track of all emails, to-do lists, documents, and notes for this project. You will have your own link and PIN to log in and see all of our conversations in one place:

I accidentally sent the message too soon! As I was saying in the second paragraph, the new sitemap is simply adding a category (News & Events) so that there is one designated space for your bulletin, calendars, newsletters, & news posts.

This way, the Parish Information tab is gone, but fall under either About or News & Events.

Thank you,

This looks wonderful! 

Thank you so much for taking the time to go through this. 

I think we are good for now, but as I begin adding content to your website, I am sure there are things that I will need from you, haha.

Thanks again and have a blessed weekend, Kristin & Angela,

Hi Veronica,
We have been having an issue that I was wondering if you or someone could help us with. Currently when you google St. Agatha, it brings up our school. It appears you are going to the church, but it is all the schools info. The school received numerous calls letting us know about this google search problem. I and several others have submitted edits to try and get St. Agatha Church to come up correctly when searching on google, but have had no luck in things being updated. We definitely want people to be able to find us and our new improved website! Is this something you can help us with resolving or direct us how to do so?

Thank you!!

Hi Angela,


We have our developers looking into this as a courtesy, but this is technically out of our hands since we did not develop the site and cannot re-code any issues we may find. We think it may be that your parish site is set to hide from search engines. 
When you messaged Google, what were their responses? We may be able to help a little bit more if we know what they mentioned. 

However, the good news is that once we build your new website, this will not be an issue! All of our sites are set to be shown to all search engines and promoted based on visitors when searching key words. 

Thank you and hopefully we can help a bit more,

OK, no worries. There is just confusion when googling St Agatha Church versus St. Agatha School. If the new website won’t have this issue, then that will be great!

Veronica,
What do you think the time table is for next steps and website launch?

Is there anything else you need from us?

Since our development queue is determined by the date of design approval, there are several projects ahead of yours. 

Once we are at about 80% completion of the website, we will reach out to you and send you a link to the working website. Then you can see your website fully alive and ready. 

At the same time we send you the link to your new website, we will schedule a date for training. 

Is there any kind of deadline we are working with? I know our developers have your project ready to start and we have already begun moving your content so that it will be ready ASAP, but I just want to make sure we are sticking to your plan, if you already have one in place. 

Thank you and I will keep you updated!

Hi Veronica,
It has been a month since we last talked so I just looking for an update. Are we are any closer to getting the new website up and running?

Good morning Angela,


I apologize for getting back to you so late, as I have been out of the office the last week. 

Your project has moved from #6 to #2 in our development queue, so our developers will begin working on it this month. At that rate, we hope to be ready to train and then launch in December. 

Either myself or one of the developers will reach out to you when we begin development on your website. Then at that point, we can also set up a training date. This will keep us on a steady track to launch as soon as we can.

Thank you so very much for your patience and understanding,

Of course!
Progress interest and enthusiasm is always appreciated and welcomed in our web department. We would much rather have a parish that is excitedly awaiting their new website than a parish that doesn't see it as a wonderful opportunity to reach people.

I will keep you up to date!

Just checking in before the holiday. Any updates on when the website will be ready?

Hello Angela,


We are now looking to train in January. Since it is the end of the year, many of our previously built websites have been looking to launch. That, in addition to Thanksgiving, our developers have not been able to work on current projects such as yours. 

That being said, yours is #1 in the queue, meaning it should be mid-January that we will be able to train you on your new website. 

I will reach out to you when the site is ready to view and to discuss a training date. Until then, feel free to email me with any questions.

Thank you,


Veronica Alvarado
