Challenge
Accura Earthmoving required a modern website that would serve as its digital presence, generate leads, and communicate their services to potential clients. The website needed to be simple to maintain, as Accura doesn’t have a dedicated content or marketing team. They also wanted the site to support content updates, such as a blog, while remaining responsive, user-friendly, and compliant with accessibility standards. Additionally, the project included creating digital assets and adapting the branding to align with their updated online presence.
The challenge was to design a website that not only showcased their services but also provided an easy-to-use platform that could be updated as needed without requiring ongoing technical support.
Approach
Your teams worked closely with Accura Earthmoving to understand their needs and develop a solution that was both user-friendly and scalable. After reviewing the project requirements, the following considerations were made:
-
Platform: WordPress was chosen as the CMS to offer flexibility and ease of use, especially for a team without a dedicated content management team.
-
Design: A modern, professional, and responsive design was essential, along with the need for accessibility compliance.
-
SEO: Given Accura’s goal of increasing lead generation, SEO optimisation was prioritised.
-
Content Structure: A simple site map was created, with essential pages such as Home, About, Team, Projects, Equipment, Blog, and Contact. The ability to add more pages and content over time was built into the solution.
-
Branding and Digital Assets: The branding was adapted to include a video banner on the homepage and a gallery-style portfolio for showcasing projects.
The project was developed with a focus on creating a smooth user experience (UX) and ensuring an easily manageable backend.
