Boston Interactive's Web Design Work for ASPCA Ranked Top 20 by Smashing Magazine

May 26, 2009 Boston, MA - Boston Interactive is pleased to announce their recognition by Smashing Magazine for designing and developing the American Society for the Prevention to Cruelty to animals (ASPCA) website. Launched in early 2009, the ASPCA website incorporates the use of a pet behavior database, its own online community, secure online donations, and the ASPCA online store, among hundreds of other interactive features. Smashing Magazine, one of the leading blogs in the design community as one of the premier non-profit websites, included the ASPCA website as one of the 20 best non profit websites as measured by usability, engagement, and interactivity.

Cameron Chapman of Smashing Magazine stated that 'The ASPCA website makes it immediately apparent through images and small text areas on their home page what the organization is all about. Donation links are featured both in the main content area of the home page and in the top navigation. Links to the 'Pressroom' and 'About' sections are also included in the top nav. Links to additional resources are also featured prominently.' To read the full article, visit http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/05/14/non-profit-website-design-examples-and-best-practices/.
