Web Development
Challenge
The challenge with designing a website for a company as large and as diverse as Pennecon is structuring their content in a logical, easily navigable way while still placing emphasis on key areas. Without the proper strategy, it would have been easy to build a site that was so big that it would become impossible to effectively navigate. Avoiding this was priority number one.
Strategy
Working closely with the company’s Communications department, we managed to distill the descriptions and services for each division, as well as develop condensed interfaces for viewing the content so that we could avoid long page lengths. With one of the more robust about pages we’ve ever designed, we were able to pull in multiple post types and subpages to create a page that’s informative, but not overwhelming.
Agencies that understand their users build more effective websites. With all of our websites, we take the time at the beginning to not just understand our clients, but to understand their clientele. As we look through competitor’s websites and understand our client’s goals, we can then begin to craft our navigation, a list of functionality, and a design that ties it all together. The end result is a website meets and exceeds client goals and user expectations.
