Business directory website for durhamStudent
durhamStudent is one of web design agency Peacock Carter's own projects.
The brief: directory website
Our brief was to create a complex directory and resource website completed to illustrate how effective a business directory website by us can be.
The solution
The solution was to develop our own, customisable business directory software, allowing us to test new features before using them on our client's 'live' websites.
Directory website design
After designing a suitable brand for durhamStudent - bright and youthful, to be aimed at Durham University students - we created a bright, easy-to-use directory web design.
Business directory web development
The next stage of the directory involved web development to create business directory software, creating custom user features, and concentrating on search engine optimisation; increasing the website's rankings for relevant terms that Durham students would search for.
The result
The website now receives huge numbers of visitors given the niche market it serves, and a community of members contributes to the website too!
