October is the month to launch your new web site
It seems that if you have a new web site in development, then October is the month it will be launched in. At the moment I am working on a number of web sites for large and smaller clients, plus the new Polaris Digital web site. The JISC Collections web site launched earlier this month and then next one to launch will be announced here next week.
While all my commerical clients have been developing their new sites, Polaris Digital has also been working on a new site that meets our new brand. We wanted something that was very clean, clear and easy to use. Underneath the clarity and simplicity would be a wealth of information, and media. But for the casual browser, Polaris Digital should be easy.
The other consideration was accessibility. To ensure our site was WCAG-AAA compliant we had to completely rethink our approach. Luckily the work we have been doing with The University of Manchester has aided this greatly.
So although our new site is not quite ready, I’m posting the designs we have passed through to get to where we are today; from left to right; Revision C, D, E;

To see the final site design, you’ll just have to check back soon… it looks nothing like those just in case you’re wondering!
