UniResort Student Accommodation





UniResort approached Pebble Design with the intention of creating a website that was outside the square. With the many student accommodation options available in Brisbane, it was important that the website stand out from the crowd and deliver something unique that would appeal to university students.
Creating the design was the hard part – lots of time and imagery went into creating the fun look and feel that is carried throughout the entire site. Our intention to create a new strong brand awareness will ensure UniResort gains worldwide recognition in its genre. The unique design will be promoted and featured on inspirational CSS Galleries to gain additional links coming into the site and as a result, build a strong base for a better SEO strategy.
The Pebble Online CMS enabled us to create custom modules for the client to easily manage the site. UniResort can update the website content and images and add student testimonials, news announcements and frequently asked questions with ease. Banner rotators have also been used to maximise marketing exposure across their key services on all pages.
Using the web app feature of the CMS, we have created our most advanced image management tool yet. UniResort can upload full size images, assign them to any page on the site that has a slideshow gallery and the system will automatically generate a smaller version of the image for use in the slideshow module. Enabling the client to manage their images via the CMS eliminates the need for costly photo manipulation software.
'Student Speak' was created as a testimonial module designed as a highly visual communication to deliver real comments from residents in a world influenced by peer and social interaction. Don't just take the resort's word for it, read what the students living there have to say.
UniResort makes full use of social media promotion throughout the site. The 'Add This' module has been added to allow users to share the website via Facebook, Twitter and other social networks, where student interaction is growing quickly. Users can follow UniResort on Facebook and Twitter and also read the latest Twitter post on the website.
Stay tuned for phase 2, which will see the addition of more CMS powered modules and further promotion through social networking.
