Platform: I'm thinking a Wordpress site, but I'm open to suggestions. The key is to enable cosmetic changes via a CMS.
Key Features: Includes but not limited to: - Ability to store and extract data of users who create an account (i.e. petition creators) and sign a petition. - Collect and store user consent at the point of a) creating an account b) signing a petition (consent for wording to be shared later). - Website to display most viewed/clicked petitions on homepage/existing petitions page for high traffic visibility. - Enable petitioners to pay for increased visibility of their petition within designated 'ad space' - UI where users can create petitions, sign petitions, download CSV and official letterhead of petition signatures (CSV to contain list of email addresses partially asterisked for data protection purposes). - Social sharing options as well as a copy and paste URL to gain signatures - Gamified progress bars to represent meeting signature targets (100, 200, 500, 1,000, 10,000+)
This is the initial brief but I'm keen to develop over time so this is likely to be an ongoing project.
