The new COTA website is built on the WordPress platform and brings together content from the old cota.org.au site as well as homecaretoday.com.au. The overall information architecture (aka content structure) has been completely overhauled to provide a simple and consistent approach to navigation.
Website accessibility testing was an important factor given COTA’s audience and we adhered to the stringent WCAG AA accessibility guidelines. This included maintaining proper readable contrast, using adequate fonts sizes and making sure the website was user-friendly for all screen sizes through responsive design; among many other things.
The use of hubs for resources, submissions, links, news and events provides central locations for key content types to be browsed and filtered, simplifying the process of locating specific content. With the universal application of Topics and Tags, the content can be cross linked to provide useful access to related items that exist in the site.
