Client: Harry Patel, Witney, United Kingdom

Background
Mywitney.co.uk, is a portal for the people residing in and around Witney, a town just outside London. It's a portal where local people can interact and partake of different services. Not to mention, a useful primer for tourists and business travellers planning to visit Witney.

Challenge
Harry Patel, the owner of Mywitney.co.uk, wanted a website that would serve as a directory on Witney, allow local people to interact through a variety of community building/ value adding functionalities, and allow them to catch-up on local news and events.

Importantly, Harry also wished to manage the site himself and of course for it to generate revenues.

Solution
Our strategy was to architect a site, which would enable mutual value exchange with visitors and offer an enhanced user experience.

After a thorough understanding of visitors' needs and expectations, we decided to make the user experience memorable, by introducing design and usability to a mix of local news, business services and strong community services.

What's more, the client in London, was thoroughly trained on the system using a combination of Flash Tutorials, Help Files and email.

The MyWitney.co.uk portal is built on Joomla Content Management System, with Zoom Media Gallery, JoomlaBoard, Poll, Yahoo Weather, an alphabetical Business Directory, Event Listing, Google Adsense and Ad Banner Manager and Tracking system.
