No obligation. We review your current site for speed, conversions, technical SEO and how it shows up in Google and AI answers.
Prospective students expect to find a program, see the cost, understand requirements and start an inquiry or application without hunting through department pages. Parents and current students need calendars, portals and contact information that work on a phone. Most institutional sites are sprawling, with department subsites that look different, catalog pages that duplicate program content, broken PDFs and accessibility failures that expose the school to complaints. The site has to convert inquiries, applications and visit requests while serving thousands of pages to many audiences.
Skyfield designs and builds the site, then the same team ranks it. Nothing gets handed off between a design shop and an SEO shop, so the structure, speed and content are right from the first day it is live.
The page types, integrations and details that turn visitors into customers for schools and colleges.
Structured templates with tuition, length, requirements, outcomes and Course schema that departments can fill without breaking layout.
Forms connected to Slate, Salesforce Education Cloud, HubSpot or your admissions CRM with source tracking.
A net price or tuition estimator that reflects aid, residency and format.
Open houses, deadlines and academic calendars with Event schema and registration forms.
Searchable profiles with credentials, research and Person schema that support program authority.
Single sign-on entry points to student portals and learning platforms that keep visitors oriented.
Drupal is the strongest fit for colleges and universities with many departments, editors and governance needs, and it has deep roots in higher education. Private schools, training providers and smaller colleges are usually better served by WordPress, which is easier for a small admissions or marketing team to run.
Content-heavy sites, service businesses and anything that needs to be easy for your team to edit.
Product catalogs, checkout and inventory for brands that sell online.
Smaller sites that need to launch fast on a managed platform.
Larger organizations with complex permissions, content workflows and integrations.
Portals, calculators, booking flows and applications that no template handles well.
Most redesigns lose rankings because the new site launches without the redirects, page structure and technical setup the old one had earned. Skyfield builds every website for schools and colleges the way we would want to inherit it as your SEO team, because we are your SEO team.
The site launches with clean URL structure, schema markup, fast Core Web Vitals, tracking in GA4 and Search Console, and content written for the searches your customers make on Google and inside AI assistants.
