New Hereford website launched
Software and websites are like any tools—no matter their previous trustworthy performance, sooner or later, a handle needs to be replaced or a blade sharpened. The American Hereford Association, based in Kansas City, Missouri, did a bit more than that in designing its new website.
“Our former website served users effectively, but they will find this one to be more intuitive and easier to use. They will also find more opportunity to drill down even deeper to discover information,” said Taylor Belle Matheny, AHA director of communications and digital content. “We’re also excited to feature the Association’s new branding throughout the new site.”
Hereford breeders, commercial users of Hereford genetics and other visitors will encounter a dynamic, mobile-friendly journey to the answers they seek. Along the way, they can also enjoy a bounty of award-winning photography and videography. The above photo was courtesy of the American Hereford Association.
