Strategy-first websites for UT’s divisions, units, colleges, departments, and programs.
At Second Mile, we specialize in creating high-impact websites across UT’s divisions, units, colleges, departments, and programs. From admissions to academic programs, we combine strategic thinking, content clarity, and technical excellence to deliver websites that work for UT.
Our work includes Torch WDS builds and custom websites for different campus needs.
We work with marketing and communications teams across UT. We learn your audiences, publishing responsibilities, and approval process so the website supports the people who manage it.
We’ve partnered with campus units and colleges including Admissions, One Stop, Vols Online, CECS, and more. We know the Torch WDS inside and out.
Great design starts with clear content and structure. We focus on your goals and user needs first. That means your site is easy to navigate and achieves its purpose.
Trusted across campus. Here’s a look at our work in action.
We’ve refined our process to make website projects smooth and stress-free for busy campus teams. We balance creativity, strategy, and technical expertise every step of the way.
We meet with your team to understand exactly what you need and why.
Before we design a pixel, we make sure your content is clear, organized, and goal-driven.
We bring it all together in Torch WDS or the agreed custom design, ensuring every page looks great and works even better.
We coordinate launch day with OCM and OIT and train your team so you’re confident managing the site moving forward.
From strategy to launch (and beyond), we do it all, but you don’t have to buy it all. Need help just with content strategy? User journey mapping? Analytics setup? We offer every service à la carte or as part of a full website build.

“The smoothest relationship I've ever experienced with a vendor. Wouldn't think twice about working with them again!”
“Truly felt like a partnership; we had ideas of what we wanted, but were educated and trained along the way, receiving key insights of other considerations we had not previously thought through. Our need was visually compelling website that we could manage on our own without in-house web developer(s), and the result has been better than expected.”
“This is the second time I have worked on a project with Second Mile and the beginning-to-end care, planning, service, and results were incredible. In fact, I began to work with Second Mile based on a reco from a colleague. Happy to continue to spread the word!”
“The Second Mile Marketing team is outstanding; they keep projects moving on schedule, are efficient and turn things around quickly, and provide valuable insights rooted in data & research. They're also just a fun bunch of people to work with who love what they do and the connections they create. Our experience with them has been nothing short of fantastic.”
“We've worked with many vendors during our CRM and digital engagement migration. Second Mile has been, by far, the most pleasant to work with. We're also very happy with the templates that were developed for our campus advancement websites and the branding that was applied to each to make them unique. 10/10 would recommend Second Mile!”
“Working with Second Mile to create our new website has been an incredible experience! From the start, their team was professional, responsive, and fully dedicated to understanding our vision.

The site is not only visually appealing but also highly functional and user-friendly. They exceeded our expectations in every way.”
