Appetite are a leading brand design agency with offices in London and Ontario. We’ve been working with them for a couple of years now and have recently launched their new site.
After completing a small holding site a few months back we’re launching their brand new site today. The site showcases Appetite’s work for Adgistics, Unilever, Trapoil and the University of Leeds using some cool slidy viewers.
Almost every aspect of the site is content managed from a WordPress back end that allows for smart navigation pulling in related content into pages where required. To simplify the content management process we created bespoke plug-ins so the client could manage portfolio items and gallery.
As the site features a lot of large graphics and background images attention has been paid to optimising the pages and the server platform to ensure fast loading pages giving the site an A ranking on GT-Metrix
There doesn’t seem to be a week goes by without Maloney’s Budgens winning another award. With 3 stores in Ascot, Shepperton and Virginia Water they have just followed up their Business in the Community , Small business of the year being awarded with the Food and Drink awards Community Partnership Awards.
On top of that we’re very pleased to announce the launch of a their brand new site and social networking channels.
After a short break one of the UK’s premier dance labels and clubs returns. We build the previous Renaissance web site over 5 years ago so were over the moon when they came back and asked us to help on their new site.
The label is launching with The Masters Series Dave Seaman and a worldwide tour featuring dates in London, Moscow and Sydney.
The site boasts a full featured e-commerce area and is setup for physical and downloadable sales with overseas shipping.
Bespoke plug-ins were created for the home page carousel, discography, nights and social networking integration.
As everyone else had good excuses Greta kindly agreed to be interviewed about Devstars for the Lightbox web site. We’re hoping we don’t lose her to a career on the silver screen now.
We use Google Analytics on almost every website we built, manage or host. It’s a great tool and records so much data we can use to help move your website forward. The downside it, is records your browsing of your own site too, ending up on skewed date. There are things we can do to stop your own browsing of your website from affecting the recorded stats like exclude your IP address, but IP’s can sometimes be dynamic, possibly chancing daily!
We don’t know the motivation or reasons behind it, but Google just released a little browser extension for IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari & Opera that prevents your browser from sending data to their Analytics service. This means that you can browse your own site without skewing the data, but that you can also browse the competition without them tracking you.
