ALLENTOWN, PA — A new whitepaper released by The Kyle David Group aims to help colleges and universities lure top students using the power of their school's website. Ten Elements Every College Website Should Have takes a comprehensive look at the recruiting challenges institutions face when recruiting new students. It teaches admissions staff how to address those issues with a website that engages tech-savvy prospects and seeks to answer their questions about the admissions and enrollment process in a more creative way than before.

“The demographic colleges and universities are trying to reach today have had Internet access their whole life, and many have had cell phones since they were 12 years old,” says Kyle David, founder and CEO of The Kyle David Group. “Engaging them on the web requires a more sophisticated approach that takes into account how this mobile-device friendly group likes to consume information.”
