The Task
The client’s request was to create a visually captivating website that not only adheres to the highest accessibility standards but also prioritizes robust security and exceptional performance. With a sophisticated and elegant design, Watch4moi has to successfully capture the essence of the brand’s identity and resonate with its target audience.
To facilitate effortless management of the website, a user-friendly admin panel should have been implemented. Leveraging the power of Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) and Gutenberg blocks, the client wanted to be empowered with seamless control and easy updates, ensuring a streamlined and efficient content management process.
As an added advantage, the owner asked us to make the website excel in Core Web Vitals metrics, providing exceptional loading times and responsiveness, thus delivering an outstanding user experience. In addition, stringent security measures should have been implemented to safeguard visitor data and instill trust in the website’s integrity and reliability.
Design has been provided by a partnered company.
