the south east apprenticeship company (SEAC) coming soon

For those unaware, seaPublish is a straightforward, easy to use content management system (CMS) that gives you complete control over the content of your website.

SEA decided back in April 2008 to develop its own content management system because developing bespoke and embedded content management within each application commissioned was proving (with development of bespoke functionality and a permanent testing programme) a persistently heavy workload.

Therefore, as both a developer tool and client administration tool, seaPublish was commissioned.  We now sit here 21 months later, proudly with a dozen plus websites administered daily with seaPublish.

The software is ever being developed, so check back soon for latest features and developments.

Today we launched another website; arengineeringindustries.com offering precision milling, turning and grinding services in a variety of sectors requiring bespoke CAD/CAM driven engineering.

Visit the site at www.arengineeringindustries.com.

Texcel Technology plc commissioned two new websites to promote the two distinct divisions within the company. The new websites are featured below.

Texcel Technology - Specialising in the design and manufacture of advanced electronic assemblies for a wide range of industries both in the UK and overseas.

Texcel Telemetry - Part of Texcel Technology plc, Texcel Telemetry is a global leader in the design, development and manufacture of advanced remote site management, monitoring and control systems.

Just a quick post to showcase some new website’s we’ve launched.

Made More Lovely - Contemporary stationery and accessories in a range of vintage inspired prints to make your special day even lovelier…

Airtechnics - Offering the best pneumatic products available on the market

Erith School - A secondary school with an outstanding Ofsted report.

In other news we’ve been reading more about the benefits of ‘Mega Drop Menus’. If you’ve visited any of the big retail websites like John Lewis or B&Q lately you’ve come across this new way of designing menus. Reports from Jacob Neilsen the usability guru suggest their very user friendly - We’re currently updating our content management system seaPublish to support this type of menu and will be using it in some new websites launching this year. We’ll post when they’re up and running.

Cheers,

Will

A new website and a new blog…it’s been a busy few weeks at Marlowe Yard. And we’ve just celebrated our 25th year in business. More on that in future posts.

The good news is the next 3 months will be even busier with a plethora of new website, web video and print work streaming into the agency. Watch this space for updates, launches, and general riffs about marketing communications.

Have a great Easter!
