North Huron Township council
unveiled the township’s new website
at its June 17 meeting as well as a
new destination video designed to
advertise the municipality to both
visitors and investors.
The website was redesigned by
Atomic North while the video was
produced by Edifice Media.
Economic Development Co-ordinator Connie Goodall explained
that the website has become a more
and more important part of the
township’s first impression.
“Five years ago, I had a lot of cold
calls because we had our number
and name on the website,” she
explained. “More and more,
however, the callers have done their
research before looking into North
Huron. They see and know what’s on
our website. They do a lot of workbefore they pick up the phone to call
us. We need our website to be able to
help them decide to make that next
step.”
She said the website will speak for
the township when someone is doing
the research they need to before
looking at North Huron as a
potential place to invest.
The video, which is similar to
videos produced by several other
local municipalities, was wellreceived by council, as was the new
website.
Councillor Archie MacGowan
asked if the video was available on
YouTube, and how the numbers
were tracked. Goodall explained
that they could, through Edifice
Media, track how many views
the video has and track their own
usage statistics for the website. She
said that, while North Huron does
have a YouTube account, the videowon’t be posted there as it could
become co-opted for other work
there.
The website and video are part of
an initiative by North Huron
township to brand the entire
municipality and includes social
media usage such as Twitter.
