How To Build A Captivating Online Memorial Website


by Karen Watson


There is nothing as rewarding as savoring the beautiful memories. Luckily, everyone has beautiful memories he or she would like to keep. Previously, these memories were kept using photo albums and books. Today, it is easy and convenient to develop an online memorial website. How can you actualize the idea and also ensure that it captures your memories in the best way possible?

Know what you want to capture on the site. There is something memorable about every day. However, you cannot document everything. You need to identify whether to document your family life, scholarship, moments with friends, the life of your children, and such other moments. This helps you to narrow down on the content of your site and move forth to how this content will be generated.

Expand the type of content that you upload on the site. The most common type of content is text. However, there are photos that capture moments better than what words can describe. It is also a moment to break monotony and enjoy a new dimension that cannot be captured using words. Videos also provide an animated presentation of the moments you have from time to time.

The design of your website plays a part in making it attractive and captivating to readers. It should be designed with the content you will be uploading in mind. A site for text only will differ from that which includes pictures and videos. Videos also add a new dynamic. It takes an experienced designer to develop a website that captures your imagination and is user friendly. Information should also be easy to find using dates or titles.

Decide on how regular the website will be updated. There is something memorable on daily basis. However, you might not find the time to make daily updates. You also do not want to burden your readers with mundane information. Choose a consistent schedule that will help you preserve memories without overloading readers or missing on crucial moments.

An external editor or contributor will spice the content on your website. It is difficult to capture all moments as an individual. Your perception and perspective might also be different from that of a third party. Consider enriching your content through engagement of a third party.

Physical or printed memories are as important to keep as digital copies. Something could happen to the internet where you lose your passwords or the host goes under. Changing technology also makes it impossible to retrieve the information that was captured in an old platform. You are left with no option but to retrieve the old memories that were already printed. Such memories will also not have to depend on availability of passwords, internet or power to access.

Having a memorial website is one of the best things you will ever do to preserve those beautiful moments in this era. It gives you a chance to share the memories with other people on different platforms in real time. There is no burden of carrying albums or the photos being destroyed in a storm.
