Building Accessible Websites for Canada: StandUp Newfoundland’s Comedy Hub

the front page of StandUP-NFLD website Custom WordPress development Canada listing

We were asked by the team at StandUp Newfoundland to create a new website to support their extensive comedy event schedule.

StandUp Newfoundland showcases a dynamic listing of comedy events happening across the province, with new shows and performances added daily. Their high-traffic platform required a website that was not only easy to update and maintain but also intuitive and welcoming for visitors.

Accessibility was a top priority for the project. The site was developed to be fully WCAG 2.1 compliant, ensuring inclusivity for all users regardless of their accessibility needs.

To streamline updates, we designed custom data-entry screens for events, venues, and talent, enabling even non-technical users to manage the site efficiently. These data types are interconnected, allowing each page to deliver a seamless user experience and highlight relevant content.

Our solution emphasizes flexibility and long-term usability. With a user-first approach to UI/UX design, the site is built for easy maintenance and future scalability. Adding new fields or features is simple, ensuring the site continues to meet evolving needs and provides maximum ROI.

If you’re looking for a website solution that combines accessibility, usability, and scalability, StandUp Newfoundland’s platform is a great example of what’s possible.
