Background
Our head honcho Kenny is a Greenock native and life long fan and as such, we've been the proud digital sponsors of 'The Ton' for almost 10 years now. With the first site launching in the season of 2008/09, we recently worked with them to evolve the site and develop it into a modern club portal.
Our Approach
The brief for the new site was simple, they wanted something that was clean, easy to use and easy to update. We approached this by using a modular design that it most prominent on the homepage. Blocks of content make up the layout and pull in key details such as latest news, previous and next match fixtures, league table positions and bespoke call to actions.
Wordpress
We upgraded the website back-end from NSBuilder, the company's historical CMS system that was built in early 2000, to WordPress and developed a modern responsive website with a heavily customised WordPress dashboard which includes tools to easily maintain squad profiles, seasons, fixtures and their online lottery draws.
The team captured the feel we wanted for our official club portal, and our fans have praised the dramatic improvement. It gives us a platform for fan updates, announcements and so much more. We plan to continue to work closely in partnership and further enhance the website.
