Gee's Haulage website (live)- Brief.

The notepads which I completed as a casual live brief for the company at the beginning of the year has turned into a paid job in designing and updating the company website. As the year has gone on I have become more confident with this type of digital work and think my visual skills are much stronger now, especially after working on Leeds Cat Rescue. Hopefully I will be able to produce something which they feel is better than the existing site and worth paying for.

The main purpose for this is to update the information displayed and add several other elements. 

I have had a short discussion with the company director and outlined some definite things which need to be included and updated on the site but also about other possibilities that could be done. During this discussion we looked at some of their competitors websites to get an idea of the sort of things that are currently lacking. 

  • Staff profiles need adding to for new members and existing updating- especially staff photos
  • Add job application option/page- email CV option
  • Quote- fill in 
  • Telephone numbers need updating 
  • Contact info updating
  • History- emphasis family business 
  • Testimonials- contact relevant companies for permission and quotes
  • New photos for whole site- how to take these?
  • Old format browsers still in office- something to consider when coding 
  • Still needs to display everything that is on there now
This has no set deadline as such yet so may continue after my final module submission but I will have final visuals to submit even if not the final codes and live version.
