About Adviser Ratings
Adviser Ratings are a team of finance and consumer experts striving to increase the availability of financial advice for everyday Australians.
The brief
The team at Adviser Ratings wanted to build a new content site to inform consumers about financial help opportunities available to them in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. The site would also serve as a qualifying tool for connecting potential customers to a range of suitable financial advisers.
Key considerations
Speed of development
To be handed over within three weeks of receiving the brief
Performance
Built to perform at speed under large traffic volumes by providing clean code and minimising the use of plugins
Integrations
Ensure easy integration with ad-serving platforms and third party tools
Sponsorship placements
Provide a number of admin-controlled sponsorship placements that are easy to update
The process
The Adviser Ratings team provided us with a skeleton design that we fleshed out to ensure elements of the site not only looked great, but rendered well across all devices. During this process we reverse engineered a style guide to ensure consistency in look and feel for future design updates.
The build itself was managed via Github to ensure concurrent development between the two teams could occur as seamlessly as possible, with all infrastructure being provided by Adviser Ratings.
