Astro Jump’s New Mobile Party Planning Website

October 25, 2017

Astro Jump of Metro DC is proud to offer our customers a first class website experience with our new mobile website. The world has gone mobile with over half of all website searches done through a mobile phone. Now when you go to plan your next party or event with Astro Jump DC you can experience a first class web experience with our new mobile website. If you are like me then you hate websites that are full of ads, difficult to navigate from within a page, and impossible to to use beyond the single home page. There are mobile adaptive websites and then there are full fledged mobile sites. Astro Jump’s website is fully mobile with features designed exclusively to make your next party planning experience easy. AstroJumpDC.com now offers a concise mobile experience with an easy to navigate menu in the top corner (like Amazon’s!). Let’s examine why this new site is so much easier and why it will help make your party planning experience so much better.

Accessibility:

No matter where you are on the mobile website, you will be able to reach an Astro Jump event planner directly with only one click. Our phone number with a clickable link will be at the top of every page so that when you have a question or need some direction just click and call us! Furthermore, next to the phone number will be our Rental Request form. If you have an idea of what you want and can’t call, answer some simple questions about your event on this form and one of our event planners will reach out to you. If, for example, you are at the bottom of our Moonbounce page and see the item that you want simply click the arrow next to the inflatable which will take you back to the top of the page so that you can call us directly or complete the rental request form. Our mobile website was built so that our customers in the DC, Maryland (MD), and Virginia (VA) area can contact us easily without having to search through the website. We’re always just a click away!

Organization:

Have you ever heard of the button “hamburger menu.” If not, don’t feel bad, but I am willing to guess if you use your mobile phone for most web searches you know what it is. The hamburger menu are the three lines you see in the top corners of many websites. When you click on the hamburger menu a navigation tool typically pops out to give you more options for navigating the website. Amazon.com, for example, uses a hamburger menu in the top left corner of their website. We love the hamburger menu model and incorporated it into the astrojumpdc.com website so that customers can see the various categories of fun rentals and choose the category that best suits their needs. With hundreds of fun rental options available, the hamburger menu helps to consolidate items into easy to navigate categories

Listing:

Once you choose a category from the hamburger menu the new website takes you to a list of each item in that category. Do you also hate looking around on a webpage for what you wanted to see? This design minimizes that so that you can browse our fun rental options casually. For example, in the bounce house section illustrated below, each bounce house is listed alphabetically so that you can either browse at your leisure or quickly scroll to the theme you are looking for. When you find what you are looking for you can either click on it to get more information or hit the “back to the top” button so that you can easily contact Astro Jump to reserve the item or ask questions.

Yes, we are a friendly DC area event planning and party rental business, but that doesn’t mean we can’t still provide our customers with the best mobile website in the party rental business. We recommend that you browse our new mobile website from your Iphone or Android device and let us know your thoughts. We are constantly seeking to improve so if you have any suggestions we would love to hear them!

Your children’s safety is our # 1 priority and Astro Jump® has always taken extra steps to provide the cleanest equipment for your celebrations. In addition to our usual warehouse equipment scrubbing, we are disinfecting upon delivery and again at pick-up to protect your family and our wonderful employees.
