01 Sound familiar?
Is your website holding your mission back?
Supporters want to help. If any of these sound like your site, here’s how we fix it.
02
“Volunteers don’t know how to get involved.”
How we fix itA clear volunteer page and sign-up form send each offer of help to the right person.
03
“Only one person knows how to update the site.”
How we fix itWe build a site staff and volunteers can update themselves, and train the people who’ll do it.
04
“Our impact is buried in a PDF report.”
How we fix itImpact stories and numbers go on the site itself, where supporters and funders can read them.

03 How we work
Three things nonprofit sites need most
A nonprofit’s website has three jobs: make giving easy, make helping easy, and show that it works.
Give
A donation in about a minute
A donate button on every page opens a short form on the platform you choose. Supporters can give once or monthly, and get a thank-you straight away.

Help
A clear way to get involved
People who want to help need to know how. A volunteer page explains the roles, a sign-up form collects what you need, and events have their own pages.

Show
Impact stories your team can post
Stories and numbers show supporters and funders that their help matters. We set the site up so staff and volunteers can add news and stories themselves, and train them to do it.

07 Compare
Next Nova, a local agency or a volunteer?
An honest look at the three usual ways a nonprofit gets its website built.
| Question | Next Nova | Typical local agency | A volunteer or DIY |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price for a nonprofit site | Fixed, from $1,290 | Commonly $1,500–$10,000 in the US | Varies widely; DIY costs your time |
| How the price works | Fixed quote before work starts | Fixed or hourly, depending on the agency | Often hourly, or your own hours |
| Who you talk to | A senior person, from the first call | Often an account manager | The person doing the work |
| Working hours | Overlap with the US working day | Local business hours | Depends on the person |
| Meeting in person | Video calls only | Usually possible | Sometimes |
| Design approved before build | Yes, with 2 rounds of changes | Usually | Varies |
| Who owns the site and logins | You, from day one | Usually you; check the contract | Varies; agree it before you start |
| After launch | 30 days free support, then an optional care plan | Retainer or hourly support | When they’re available |
Where we’re not the best fit
If you want to meet in person every week, or you need someone on site, a local agency is the better choice. And if a skilled volunteer can commit for the long term, a simple site on a donation platform’s own page builder can be enough to start.

09 Is it right for you?
Who this is for, and who it isn’t
Here’s how to tell if a new website is the right next step for your organisation.
A good fit if you…
Run a nonprofit or community organisation.
Want more online donations and monthly givers.
Need volunteers to find and join you.
Want staff and volunteers to update the site themselves.
Probably not a fit if you…
Need a donor database or CRM. That’s your donation platform’s job; we connect to it.
Are a large national charity. A specialist nonprofit agency suits that better.
Only need flyers and event graphics. See graphic design.
Have a good site but few visitors. SEO may help more.
10 Questions
Straight answers
Still unsure about something? Message us. A real person replies.
Ask on WhatsAppDo you offer nonprofit discounts?
Yes. Nonprofit sites start at $1,290 with nonprofit pricing. You get a fixed price after a free 15-minute call.
Can you set up Google Ad Grants?
Google Ad Grants gives eligible nonprofits free search advertising. Google decides who is accepted, and the application is made by your organisation. We build your site to be clear, secure and easy to use, which Google looks at when it reviews a site.
Which donation platform should we use?
It depends on your fees, your donors and the features you need. Givebutter, Donorbox, PayPal Giving and Stripe all work well; we’ll compare them with you on the call and connect the one you pick.
Can volunteers update the website?
Yes. We set the site up so staff and volunteers can post news, events and stories, and we train the people who’ll do it.
How long does a nonprofit website take?
Most go live in 3 weeks: design in week 1, build in week 2, launch and training in week 3.
