Today, we are excited to announce the launch of our new look website for Landau Forte College Derby.
We’ve made substantial improvements to our site, thanks to some valuable feedback from our users. The site is now faster and more responsive than before and we have worked hard to improve the way we deliver new content to you.
Read on to find out more about some of the new features we have added to the site.
New Features
New Design
To keep our websites looking fresh and current we aim to update the design every couple of years. The core focus of our design process has always been to improve the user experience of our sites, making them easier to use and quicker to navigate through.
This new theme has been designed from the ground up to take advantage of the latest WordPress features (see below). We’ve removed the clutter and brightened up the site and we’ve also reorganised some of the content to help you find what you’re looking for more easily.
Latest News
We have added a blog to our sites. This is a place where all of the latest news and event information from the College comes together. We will be making the blog available via RSS and any new posts will automatically be posted to our Facebook and Twitter sites.
Social Media
With social media websites like Facebook, Twitter and Google+ fast becoming a staple of modern life, it seems only natural to allow our users to connect and share with us in this way.
You may have noticed that we now prominently feature links to our Facebook and Twitter profiles at the top of every page, so you now have quick access to them from anywhere on our site. We have also included our Twitter feed in the footer of every page meaning you can conveniently read our latest tweets without ever leaving our site. Finally, with the introduction of our Latest News blog we have added the ability to share and like the articles with your friends and followers on a range of social networks.
