Websites for NGOs, projects and international organisations
A project website has to satisfy three parties at once: the project’s beneficiaries, the donor and the team that edits it — often in several languages, on a short deadline and with clear visibility rules.
- Languages
- EN · BS · DE and more
- Requirements
- Per donor rules and ToR
- Accessibility
- WCAG 2.1 AA
- After the project
- The site stays online
Priorities
What a project website must have
A good NGO website informs beneficiaries, shows results to donors and doesn’t burden the team that edits it.
Local languages and English (and others as needed), with correct hreflang tags and equal content in every version.
News, events, calls and publications are published without a developer — even when the team changes during the project.
A library of studies, reports and handbooks with filters and search, instead of an unordered list of PDFs.
Contrast, readability, image descriptions and keyboard navigation following WCAG 2.1 AA — often a donor requirement too.
A plan for after the project ends: a lightweight archive that stays online at minimal cost and without maintenance.
Procurement
Working to the Terms of Reference and tenders
Many organisations procure their website through a call for proposals or a tender with Terms of Reference. I work to the specification in the call, with clearly defined deadlines and deliverables that include:
- building and testing the website according to the ToR requirements,
- documentation and a short training session for editors,
- handover of all access — domain, hosting, admin and source code,
- a maintenance plan during the project and after it ends.
If you are writing the ToR yourself, it helps to define in advance who owns the domain and content, who pays for hosting after the project and how long the site should stay online. For the basics, see the guide how to register a .ba domain.
Projects
Types of websites
- Organisation website — mission, programmes, team, reports and funding transparency.
- Project website — goals, activities, partners, results and news of a single project.
- Campaign website — one strong message, a call to action and easy sharing on social media.
- Application platform — online applications for calls, grants or trainings, with an overview for the team.
For portals of public institutions and utilities, see also web portals for the public sector.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can you prepare a proposal using the call or tender template?
Yes. The proposal, budget and work plan can follow the template and Terms of Reference (ToR) from the call, in English or Bosnian, with clearly stated deadlines and deliverables.
What happens to the website when the project ends?
That should be planned in advance. The site can be turned into a lightweight static archive that stays online for years with minimal hosting costs and no maintenance. The domain and all content remain the organisation’s property.
Can a campaign website be ready on a short deadline?
A simple campaign or event website can be ready in a week or two if copy and visual materials are ready. The deadline is always written into the quote.
