As part of our continuing service for the Tullis Russell Group, we  are now providing web hosting and support for the Tullis Russell website, which is now hosted on one of our dedicated servers.

As well as transferring the current website to our servers, we have also integrated the new web design for the Papermakers section of the website, gradually bringing the look and feel of the site up to date.

Our web design and development team recently designed, built and broadcast an e-mail marketing campaign for Lifestyle Blinds.

Using our HTML email broadcasting system we designed a compelling email campaign, send it to the client as a PDF for approval, build the HTML version, and then distributed the campaign to an email list that was supplied as a CSV file.

Immediately after the email campaign was launched, the client was also able to view detailed statistics such as the number of emails sent, received, bounced and read over time and the number of clicks into the website.

This week sees the launch of the ‘Swim for free’ campaign, a joint initiative between Manchester City Council and Manchester Sports and Leisure Trust (MSLT).

Anybody under the age of 16 or over 60 is eligible to swim for free at any of Manchester’s eleven swimming pools.

Pixel8 created graphic designs for leaflets and exhibition banner stands for each location and added additional pages on the MSLT website, with accompanying online resources for swimmers to download and register. The Manchester Sports and Leisure Trust website design was developed by Pixel8 in 2008.

Pop in to any of Manchester’s swimming pools to see the campaign designed by Pixel8, or to register for free swimming in Manchester!

The web design team at Pixel8 in Manchester will be restructuring the GAP Consulting website this month by improving and freshening a few features.

The website navigation will receive an overhaul, with a recoded menu and easy to navigate ‘quick links’ menu. We’ll be improving site usability by adding a fully customised Google site search, as it’s a cost effective and efficient way of searching for content on a website.

We’ll also be carrying out some search engine optimisation (SEO) work and having a general clean up of code, to improve overall usability and adding clean, bright new banners will complete the look.

If your company is ready for a new website design, some new website graphics or a website search facility, please call us on 0161 228 6489 or contact us online.

Having already developed the corporate branding for Answer IT, our cms web design team will launch a fully content managed website for Answer IT next month.

Answer IT have a new proposition of providing online IT support for the equivalent of only £1 per day.

Pixel8 developed the Answer IT brand including a new company logo and corporate identity, now our web designers will be busy developing the new website over the coming weeks.

We’ll also be providing website hosting and on-going monthly website support.

Beat-The-Agent approached Pixel8 with the proposition of developing their new corporate brand identity and to design a new website for their direct ‘cutting out the middle man’ holiday homes abroad company.

The brand design needed to be clear and effective in communicating the ethos of the business, with a look and feel that could be continued throughout the new website. Following a series of workshops, we were able to put together a development proposition that featured new logo design options, website homepage and subsequent webpage designs, a brand guide and also a series of exhibition banner designs.

We were delighted to be able to be involved in an international corporation and hope to continue to evolve this brand even further in the near future.

TSNLA approached the Pixel8 design and marketing agency with a brief to create their new corporate branding and to design a new website following the growth and success of the newly formed organisation.

Focusing on the concept of vision, communication and forward thinking, the website design was to reflect the core values of the TSNLA and embody the ‘all-encompassing’ nature of the alliance.

The new logo design was to illustrate diversity and the turning of a ‘new page’ in adult learning, which, when applied to the website would follow through as a concurrent theme.

We feel we have been able to contribute towards the ongoing growth of the TSNLA and demonstrate the creative skills that will hopefully build the basis for further ventures in the future.
