After many conversations, plans and hard work the new PiP website is finally here! The new website has a range of advantages including:

• Information on the site is dated so you will be able to tell how long it’s been here.
• There are a number of ways to browse the site – via the menus, the search box or the tag cloud.
• Visitors to the site can leave comments and discuss the information presented, add to it or update it.
• It has a whole new content management system which is much easier for me to use so I’ll be able to keep it fresh and publicise new happenings much more quickly.
• Data analysis on the old site showed that almost half the website visitors were people who had been here before. The new layout means that visitors to the site will immediately be presented with the latest PiP and youth PVAW sector news.

Hopefully PiP members will still be able to navigate around and find all the information that was available on the old site – if there’s anything missing or any mistakes please let me know.  Feel free to leave a comment and tell me what you think!
