Mohegan Tribe

Providing a refreshed website to reinstill pride in a sovereign nation
 
The Mohegan Tribe is a federally recognized sovereign Indian Nation in Connecticut with its own constitution and government, comprising tribal administrative departments that manage daily functions on the reservation. The Tribe also owns and operations multiple business enterprises throughout the United States that provide benefits to the Tribe and community at large. As a long-time ZAG Interactive client, the Mohegan Tribe hired ZAG Interactive to redesign and rebuild its site using the latest design, technology and user experience best practices.

Creating a strategic baseline

ZAG evaluated the website architecture and made updates to ensure that it was easy for visitors to find exactly what they're looking for, and allowed for easy access to key information like the tribe's museum, careers, business initiatives and more. ZAG’s design team then created a responsive design that conveys pride, represents its unique brand unique elements and honors the unique heritage of this sovereign nation. The new design includes an increased focus on imagery and video content so that the site continues to tell important stories. The result is a design that is modern yet timeliness,  easy to follow and consistent with other branded materials used by the Tribe.
 

Improved technology through the Sitefinity CMS

The new site was rebuilt on the latest version of the Sitefinity CMS, a content management system that is preferred by the Mohegan Tribe for most of its digital properties. This powerful CMS keeps content management easy, and allows for updates and scalability for Mohegan Tribe administrators. The Mohegan Tribe now has a digital presence that proudly showcases its history while staying true to modern best practices and expectations.
