Unique Improvements

Graphic Designer Tony Bussey wanted a web developer, who could help bring his design ideas and concepts to life for Social Marketing organisation, Unique Improvements.

Initial briefing/project scoping

My initial job was to explain to the client, what could be achieved and how long it would take. I managed to persuade the client that WordPress was the best option for what was a relatively simple website that needed to be easily updated.

Wireframing

I then produced interactive wireframes of how I felt the site should work with the aim of guiding the graphic designer through his process and ensure important parts of the site were included.

HTML/CSS build and WordPress integration

The templates were relatively straightforward as was the WordPress integration with some small sections of customisation to enable:

• A customised contact form
• Pages with slightly different styles: An example case study and the News headlines

Training

The final piece of the puzzle was to train the client in the use of WordPress and CampaignMonitor. I choose those solutions because of their ease of use and teaching them proved remarkably easy.

Summary

As a whole, I think this new website works very well. The content is well laid out and doesn’t feel at all cramped. The navigation is simple and uncomplicated which is another real positive.

Finally, a big thanks goes out to Andrew Kirwin who helped me get this project finished on time when the deadline suddenly became much tighter.
