Redesign of Corporate Newspaper Website
The Brief
Tindle Newspapers Ltd is one of the largest, privately-owned regional newspaper companies in the UK with titles in stunning coastal and market towns across the South East and South West of England, Wales and the Isle of Man.
When Tindle got in touch with our Surrey web design agency, our in-house team were thrilled to be creating a new, bespoke website for this leading media company.
Tindle needed a professional and functional site, incorporating modernity with their own unique and established brand image. We decided to re-order the content throughout the whole site, improving the user experience for Tindle customers.
Tindle Newspapers Ltd Managing Director Scott Wood wanted to make sure it was easy for visitors to find what they were looking for, and to add a new content managed area within the bespoke website to allow for promotions, new product launches, announcements and more.
The Build
The Thunderbolt team started with a more in-depth scoping discussion in order to fully understand the nuances of the brief and explore some ideas for the project. This stage is a very important part of the whole journey, as it informs all aspects of the bespoke website project moving forward.
After this, we felt confident to progress to the design phase, capturing the look and feel of the site as well as how users would interact with the new site in line with the key objectives.
We designed and built the site for a more varied range of devices – ensuring it was responsive across all major devices and browsers.
The homepage design incorporated Tindle’s brand colours of deep blue and orange, additionally blending images and text to create a seamless, engaging page experience.
The Results
After the website went live, we caught up with Tindle to discuss the outcomes. Tindle was incredibly pleased with the project, as can be seen from the testimonial below.
We are over the moon to have been able to successfully deliver to this prestigious client, and look forward to sharing the results of more design and build projects.
