Gaza-Egypt Border Down

Published 2008 January 23

bq.. “Essentially what has happened here is that the people of Gaza have forced on Egypt and Israel and the international community what everyone else refused to allow to happen - which was for the border crossing to be opened.

They have done it themselves.”

Cantos Website Design

Cantos.com landing pages.

Cantos

UX & Website Design

Problem

Cantos needed to attract new visitors interested in online business video to their website. An audience accustomed to seeing a great deal of financial information on a daily basis proved to be a challenge.

Solution

I created a group of clear, modern, accessible HTML landing pages easily managed with a custom CMS and targeted by a focused Google Ad campaign. The landing pages succeeded in bringing a large number of new visitors to explore Cantos’ services increasing impression-to-click rates by 30%.

Work Done

User experience design, graphic design, copy writing, HTML markup, CSS, CMS templates and implementation.
