Subscriptionville, a magazine
subscription site, is another in-house project.
It is built on publication data supplied by a 3rd party magazine
fulfillment service. Data gathering and import functions for the site
have been automated to keep content up-to-date without the need for
manually managing the datafeeds. The site also allows for user
interaction by way of magazine reviews, uses full-text search to
provide relevant and rapid search results, and provides a small level
of personalization by displaying a list of the visitors most recently
viewed items.
Our in-house projects benefit our clients in the following ways.
- They give us the opportunity to enhance our skill set without experimenting and learning on our clients projects.
- They enables us to work with 3rd parties and ensure they provide quality service before we utilize them on client projects.
- They allow us to test new products and technologies before we implement them on client sites.
- They
provide us with a means to improve our search marketing efforts and
enable us to stay on top of changes within the industry.
