   —   
The first month of 2012 is over and we are happy to showcase great new websites reported by our partners in January. We are excited about the number and variety of features used in the projects – multilingual content, e-commerce, social tools as well as advanced customization and integration creating content-rich and robust websites.

International-adviser.com and portfolio-adviser.com are specialist financial websites aimed at the international IFA and senior wealth/fund manager markets. Key “front end” features include an integrated subscription management system for users, multiple sign up mechanisms, e.g. quick eNewsletter, and more detailed magazine subscriptions registration. Integration with ad-server and video providers also required careful design and execution. Major challenges included migrating 8,000+ legacy web pages and 10s of thousands of related files and documents, whilst maintaining google indexing, and rationalisation of multiple user databases into a single “command database” to enable centralised user communication and activity management from 160,000+ records to a “de-duped” list of 70,000 users.
