MentorAngel is an Australian impact accelerator and Tech-for-Good platform focused on social entrepreneurship, founder support, mentoring and startup pathways. This WordPress website redesign case study explains how I improved the portfolio presentation for a website built with WordPress and Elementor, with a clearer structure for founders, mentors, investors and program visitors.
The project needed more than a visual refresh. MentorAngel had to communicate a complex mission: supporting dreamers, doers, founders, migrants, refugees, mentors and investors who want to use technology to create social or environmental value. My work focused on turning that message into a clearer website experience with stronger navigation, service structure and project presentation.

The Client’s Requirements
MentorAngel needed a website that could explain its role as an impact accelerator and Tech-for-Good platform. The site had to make space for founder benefits, program pathways, academy-style learning, startup applications, enquiry paths, investment priorities and mentoring information.
The website also needed to speak to several audiences without becoming confusing. Founders needed to understand the application journey. Mentors and investors needed to understand how they could support good businesses. Visitors needed to understand the platform’s focus on social entrepreneurship, digital innovation and purpose-driven startup development.
The Main Challenges
The main challenge was organizing a broad innovation message into a clear website journey. MentorAngel is not a simple brochure website. It includes startup programs, founder criteria, expression-of-interest steps, mentoring, investment priorities and information for people who want to build or support Tech-for-Good ventures.
Another challenge was presenting older or mixed content in a cleaner way. Startup support websites can quickly become difficult to scan when every section competes for attention. The redesign needed to make the mission, benefits, application process and enquiry paths easier to follow.
My Website Strategy
I structured the project around visitor intent. A founder arriving on the site needs to understand what MentorAngel supports, whether their idea fits, and how to move toward an expression of interest. A mentor or investor needs to understand the shared-purpose model, collaboration process and value of supporting purpose-driven businesses.
The website strategy focused on clear section hierarchy, responsive visual presentation, simple navigation labels and content blocks that explain the platform’s benefits. This made the page easier to scan while preserving the brand’s focus on entrepreneurship, innovation and social impact.
Work Completed
WordPress Website Redesign
I worked on the WordPress website redesign so MentorAngel could present its mission and startup pathways more clearly. The redesign focused on layout, visual structure, section order and a more modern presentation for a platform serving founders, mentors and investors.
Elementor Page Structure
Elementor was used as the page-building layer. This made it practical to organize hero content, benefit sections, application steps, investment priorities, contact information and call-to-action areas without requiring a custom-coded interface for every page section.
Founder and Startup Journey Organization
The live page now presents a clearer founder pathway, including expression of interest, application, pitch, due diligence and award steps. This structure helps prospective founders understand the process before they submit an application or enquiry.
Mentor and Investor Content Structure
I helped organize content for mentors and investors around shared purpose, global reach, collaboration, concierge support and the idea that doing good business can also support long-term value. This gives non-founder audiences a clearer reason to keep reading.
Responsive Website Presentation
The website was structured with responsive design in mind so the key message, application path, illustrations and content blocks could remain readable across desktop and mobile devices.
Visual Assets and Graphics Support
The existing project record identifies Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator as part of the design workflow. Those tools supported custom graphics and icon presentation around startup steps, benefits and platform content.
Analytics Foundation
The original project record also identifies Google Analytics integration as part of the setup. That gives the website a foundation for future performance review. The work described here is limited to verified deliverables and visible website functionality.

What This Project Demonstrates
This project demonstrates my ability to work on WordPress redesign projects where the main challenge is structure, not only styling. Innovation and startup-support websites often need to explain several pathways at once, and the website has to help each visitor find the right next step.
For accelerators, consultants, business programs, education platforms and service organizations, this type of redesign can make the website easier to scan, easier to maintain and better aligned with how visitors make decisions.
