First Impression has a homepage re-design

If you hadn’t noticed we have launched a new homepage on our site today. After conducting some research using Google Analytics we discovered our homepage wasn’t being utilised to it’s full potential. We decided to totally strip down the old homepage of any clutter in favor of a more simplistic approach.

The re-designed homepage features a JQuery content slider which allows people to read about our core services all from the homepage and then click through to a more detailed service page. We have also added links to some of the social networking sites of which we belong to including Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook
