"Our website is the first point of contact our members have with us and Black Digital brought us into the 21st century, creating something aesthetically pleasing and easy to navigate. They weren't just our web developers but an extension of our team, providing us with solutions that deliver tangible business results. We highly recommend Black Digital to other non-profits who are looking to revamp their websites."

The Organization

The National Association of Securities Professionals is the premier organization that helps people of color and women achieve inclusion in the financial services industry. Founded in 1985, the association is headquartered in Washington, D.C., with 11 local chapters and a membership of financial services professionals nationwide.

The Challenge

This member association website redesign had to fix a site that wasn’t serving the organization’s own chapters. The site lacked real functionality, connected to a MemberClicks membership platform that was difficult to navigate on its own, hosted a number of outdated and visually unappealing pages that were dragging the whole site down, and was difficult for the association’s own staff to update.

The Build

The team built the association a new site on WordPress and Elementor specifically so the association’s marketing team could manage and update it internally going forward, without depending on outside developers for routine changes. Rather than replacing MemberClicks outright, the new site was built as the front door: the primary public experience members and prospective members interact with. That front door was then connected to the existing MemberClicks platform via API, enabling single sign-on and secured, members-only areas of the public site instead of forcing members out to a separate, disconnected login. The redesign also reduced the number of webpages by cutting the ones that were unnecessary and hurting the site’s overall functionality and SEO, and added a jobs board so member companies could post financial services opportunities aimed at people of color and women in the industry.

  • Custom member-association ForgeWP theme
  • API integration with MemberClicks for single sign-on and secured member-only areas
  • Jobs board feature for member companies to post open roles
  • Page reduction and consolidation to improve SEO and site performance
  • Local chapter directory and membership pathways
  • BugHerd used for client feedback during the build

The Result

The association now has a modern, easy-to-navigate WordPress and Elementor site that serves as the front door to its existing MemberClicks platform, with single sign-on into member-only areas and full internal control over updates.
