Procter Machinery Guarding has completed a major redesign of its website following an assessment by some of the UK's leading consultants specialising in website usability.
Procter Machinery Guarding has completed a major redesign of its website following an assessment by some of the UK's leading consultants specialising in website usability.
Visitors to the site will now find it easier and quicker to locate what they want - and when you consider the vast amount of information on the site, easy navigation is crucial.
Much of the content of the site is retained, with more news and articles added whenever there are new product developments or an issue of the On Your Guard email newsletter is published.
The most frequented areas of the site are those relating to Procter's various guarding products, news and articles, case studies, risk assessments and free guides.
Something else that was recognised by the consultants is that the web page where visitors can register to receive the free On Your Guard email newsletter is extremely popular - which is borne out by the number of new registrations received each week.
Further changes to the design of the web pages have been made to improve user-friendliness, such as replacing the dark blue mesh background with plain white.
A new menu structure has also resulted in fewer clicks being required to access information about specific products - including custom-designed guards, perimeter guards, aluminium guards and access platforms.
Visit the website now to see the changes, or contact Procter Machinery Guarding to find out more about its products and services.
