Here are some examples of sites created by us – and details of the challenges that they are designed to meet.

Here you can see in practice some of the things we’ve been talking about on this website – good design coupled with clear, intuitive navigation and clear structure. Click on any picture to be taken through to the site it represents.

We hope this gives you an idea of the kind of work we have been doing and of our capabilities for working on sites big, small and everywhere in between – and that you’re inspired to get in touch to talk about your own requirements.

We’ll be glad to answer any questions you have. Just drop us an email or give us a call.

The Takeover Panel front page

The Takeover Panel

The Panel on Takeovers and Mergers is an independent body, established in 1968, whose main functions are to issue and administer the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers and to supervise and regulate takeovers and other matters to which the Code applies. Its central objective is to ensure fair treatment for all shareholders in takeover bids. We were asked to come up with a clean design appropriate to the organisation which was simple for busy staff to use and which met stringent reliability criteria as it needs to be constantly operational.

Screech Owl Sanctuary front page

The Screech Owl Sanctuary

The sanctuary provides care and rehabilitation for sick and injured wild owls in Cornwall as well as running a popular visitor attraction. Onlineability has been working with its team to modernise an existing website, to make it easy to update and to add new features such as an online shop. In technical terms we did this by migrating existing content onto a WordPress platform then re-skinning it with a custom theme to make sure it’s got a really fresh and eye-catching design. We are also taking this opportunity to refresh and overhaul the content and to suggest where it might be expanded. Our next task will be to work with the sanctuary to add new features such as a shop and newsletter sign-ups.

Brits on Pole front page

Brits on Pole redesign

When our motorsport site started to attract more visitors and more attention we decided it was time for a new look. Its new design is based on the freely-available Options theme by Justin Tadlock which was then customised and re-skinned for the site by Andy, our CSS guru. This was the perfect way to give the site a unique and distinctive look quickly and it allowed us to marry the many features available in the Options template with our own unique branding. The result is a professional, dynamic site with a strong identity that has been accorded media credentials by globally-recognised motorsport teams, major racing series, and leading tyre manufacturers.

PoliticalBetting.com header image

PoliticalBetting.com revamp and new header design

One of the UK’s most popular blogs was given a new look, thanks to redesign work by Onlineability. Politicalbetting.com is an influential and lively site where punters and politicians mix to trade tips, quips and friendly insults about political events and the betting markets’ reactions to them. Founder Mike Smithson appealed to readers to develop a new masthead banner image as a replacement for his own designs – and Onlineability took on the challenge. Mike said: “In the four and a half years since we were established we’ve stuck with incorporating pictures of politicians in one form or another on the masthead. This was good at first but it required constant updating when new figures came in and old figures went out.” Instead, he wanted a new design that incorporated the twin themes of the site – politics and gambling. Onlineability worked with him to develop a banner image that incorporated ideas of money, politics and success alongside such key information as the site name.

Bargainsaver.co.uk
