Project Details

We recently launched a new website for Small Town Saskatchewan.

We’ve worked with Don from Small Town Saskatchewan (STSK) for a number of years, building his first website of small town videos years back when he approached us about this idea.  After a number of years it was time to improve it, refresh the look and upgrade the technology leveraging the Youtube API in order to more easily present his numerous video archives of small towns across Saskatchewan.

We’re thrilled with the result. This is a super easy to use tool – that more so many of us who have roots across the prairies  – now have a unique video library of so many small towns across this province. Don is a tireless worker – often seen riding his bike throughout the summer months collecting and researching and building this truly unique tool – we hope you check out his videos and drop him a line to thank him if his work is meaningful to you in some way!

What We Did:

• Built a new site on the user-friendly, ultra popular WordPress platform
• Converted the old hardcoded archive of YouTube videos into a new API-driven list that automatically updates
• Coded the website to be Responsive – it adapts to different device sizes
• Added a dynamic map that again automatically populates when Don updates his YouTube library
• Provided blazing fast, Canadian, secure hosting
• Encrypted the site with an SSL certificate increasing the security on information you send to it or download from it.
