Scottish Business Network
http://www.scottishbusinessnetwork.co.uk - Live Site
This was an exciting project for a new Edinburgh based business that specialises in bringing Scottish businesses together. What was even more unique for this website was that it only really consists of one page! “That doesn’t sound interesting!” I hear you say, but there is actually a lot more to the page than you would imagine…
The Scottish Business Network is fronting a number of existing websites that are already carrying a recognised brand and colour scheme etc, so it was important that we took knitted the whole group of sites together effectively using a clean business like appearance. To give the site more appeal and interaction we have built in a number of features that pull information through from other sources keeping the page dynamic and different automatically.
One of the nice additional features was a live Twitter feed displayed in the footer of the page. This sits next to two other live feeds one showing the latest five posts from selected boards on the Scottish Business Forums, the other shows the five most recent articles from the Scottish Business Blog. The cherry on the cake with this site is the ‘lightbox’ style contact form that enables a method of contact whilst keeping the page count at one!
