Creating a High-Impact Website on a Tight Deadline
Project Goal
Bignose Developments Pty Ltd approached us with a clear objective—to design and develop a simple, user-friendly website that showcases land available for sale and development in West Side Maleny. The project had a very tight timeline, needing to be delivered within one week just before Christmas. Understanding the urgency, our team prioritised efficiency, clear communication, and precision to ensure we met the deadline while maintaining a high standard of design and functionality.
Project Scope and Key Features
The primary goal of the website was to provide potential buyers and investors with clear and accessible information about the available lots, their zoning, and development opportunities. To achieve this, we incorporated the following key features:
- Easy User Navigation
A well-structured and intuitive navigation layout was crucial for ensuring that users could quickly find the information they needed. We designed a streamlined menu that allowed visitors to seamlessly explore the site, view lot details, and contact the sales team without unnecessary steps.
- Lot Availability Information and Zoning Map
To help potential buyers make informed decisions, we included a dedicated section that highlighted which lots were available for purchase and which would become available later. Additionally, a zoning map was incorporated to give insight into the land’s permissible uses, allowing buyers to assess the suitability of each lot for their specific needs.
- Image Gallery Showcasing the Development Site
A visual representation of the development site was an essential component of this project. We designed a gallery that featured high-quality images of the land, offering potential buyers a real sense of the property’s surroundings, layout, and potential for development.
- Clear Contact Information for Enquiries
Given the nature of the real estate market, providing direct and accessible contact details was a priority. We ensured that the website prominently displayed contact information for inquiries, making it easy for interested buyers to connect with the sales team for further discussions.
Challenges and Solutions
Delivering a fully functional and polished website within a one-week timeframe posed significant challenges. However, through effective project management and a structured workflow, we were able to meet the deadline without compromising on quality.
Tight Timeline: With only one week to design and launch the website, we adopted an agile approach, focusing on core functionalities first and refining the details as we progressed. Clear communication with the client allowed for rapid feedback and adjustments.
Content Readiness: To accelerate the process, we worked closely with the client to gather all necessary content—such as property details, images, and zoning information—at the start of the project. This minimised delays and ensured we had everything required to complete the site efficiently.
Optimised Performance: Given the high volume of images required for the gallery, we optimised all media files to ensure fast loading times without compromising visual quality. This contributed to a smooth and responsive user experience.
Results and Client Satisfaction
The project was delivered on time, and successfully launched before the Christmas deadline. The website provided Bignose Developments Pty Ltd with a professional and effective online presence, enabling potential buyers to easily explore the land available for sale.
The client is very happy with the final outcome, praising the clarity, usability, and aesthetic appeal of the website. The well-organised layout, detailed lot information, and seamless navigation have made it an invaluable tool for showcasing their development project.
Conclusion
This project is a testament to our ability to deliver high-quality websites under tight deadlines. By focusing on user experience, clear information presentation, and efficient execution, we were able to meet the client’s expectations and provide a solution that serves as a key marketing asset for their development.
Bignose Developments Pty Ltd now has a functional, engaging, and informative website that effectively highlights the land opportunities in West Side Maleny, helping them attract buyers and investors with ease.
