SEO for non-profits and charities

SEO makes the pages your customers need easy for search engines to find and understand, and easy for people to act on once they arrive. For non-profits and charities, that means getting program and impact pages, donation options and volunteer information right, because supporters, volunteers and people who need help want to donate, volunteer or get help without hunting for information.

What your customers are trying to do

Supporters, volunteers and people who need help want to donate, volunteer or get help.

A non-profit website usually has to handle online donations, including regular giving, fundraising event tickets, supporter updates and volunteer and staff applications.

Online donations, including regular giving: supporters give more readily when donating takes a minute.

Fundraising event tickets: events need tickets, capacity limits and attendee details.

Supporter updates: updates keep supporters connected between appeals.

Volunteer and staff applications: a single place for roles makes recruiting volunteers easier.
