Challenge: Connecting Travel is moving to a new CMS and needs a new design for its website. We have a limited time to make this happen as well as a limited budget.
My role
Design: I used existing skins from sister brand Travel Weekly combined with brand-specific requirements to create a new website myself. I took a hands-on role to create the site and make adjustments.
Project management: I led the migration of the CMS, organised team members for testing, and worked with a third-party to develop the brand’s Arabic counterpart.
Problem solving: I took note of existing problems with Connecting Travel’s website, including blockers for SEO, and incorporated solutions into the new site.
Training: I remotely trained the editorial team, who are based in Dubai, on how to upload articles and media to the new CMS.
