Treating the website as a one-off deliverable

When a project website is treated as a launch deliverable rather than a living tool, it ages quickly. The most common consequence is a structure that cannot absorb new deliverables, results or events without manual intervention from a developer.

Overloaded homepages

Project homepages often try to communicate every aspect of the project at once. A clearer approach is to use the homepage to orient — who this is, what it does, where to go — and let dedicated pages carry the depth.

Hidden deliverables and publications

Deliverables and publications are often a primary reason visitors arrive on a project website. They should be easy to find, well structured, and consistently presented across the project lifecycle.
