Government website design can be powerful. It can (literally) change the world.
The public relies on you. The public is online. And the public relies on you to be great online. Your website should serve them; it should be helpful and easy to use. Your content should be based on research. And everything that happens online should be private, secure, and accessible.
Government Website Design is Just the Beginning
When it comes to using digital technology, government agencies have been behind the curve far too long. Suggesting someone “visit a governmental website” is enough to send them screaming in the other direction.
But that’s changing. With nearly two decades of experience, Mighty Citizen knows that superb government website design is the result of superb work behind the scenes. Government websites that create deep connections with their citizens come from strategy, research, branding, and promotion. That’s why we offer these services and features:

How We Approach Government Website Design
Your agency has unique goals, challenges, and constituencies. What works for you won’t work for the organization across the street. We know that—and that’s why we offer only custom services, never pre-packaged ones.
We specialize in balance—in finding the sweet spot between efficiency and effectiveness, between design that delights and development that delivers. In other words, when Mighty Citizen produces a government website, it makes everyday citizens more mighty.
See how we’ve helped these government entities:
Privacy & Security
On the Internet, trust is hard to come by. The world wide web is weary—especially of offering up their personal information to a government website. Your best approach is to take online privacy and security seriously—and ensure it remains a top priority. Because once it’s lost, regaining the public’s “cyber trust” is a lengthy, expensive ordeal.
At Mighty Citizen, everything we build and put online is secure. We’ll develop your website atop a safe, modern CMS platform—one that’s aligned with the latest industry standards and securities. Protecting your website—and your users—will be as important to us as it is to you.
Project Management: Our (Not-So-Secret) Advantage
Even the smallest agency’s project can become incredibly complex: lots of stakeholders with competing priorities, legal rules to follow, plenty of diversity among the public audience, etc.
That’s why we’ve invested in building a large, seasoned team of PMP-certified project managers. Your Mighty Citizen project will be overseen, beginning to end, by your project management team. They’ll be your liaison—explaining at every step what’s happening now, what’s happening next, and what you’ll need to do.

The Right CMS for the Job
If you know which content management system (CMS) you want your website built on, we’ve got you covered. But if you’re open to a new CMS, we’ll recommend one based on a number of factors—i.e., your content governance, organizational structure, design, audience, etc. We’ll help you select a CMS that makes website management easy, secure, and scalable over time.
