The B Line Website Redesign & Development

Prepared by Chris McMahon

Project Overview

Project Objective

The project objective is to redesign the website for meetNKY’s bourbon experience, The B-Line. The core objective for this redesign is to retain more website visitors for a longer time on site.

Also to be faster, easier to use, and mobile compatible.

Project Scope

The scope of the project is to:

  • Redesign The B-Line’s website, findyoursippingpoint.com, retaining the current style elements—logo(s), fonts, brand colors, graphics, etc.
  • Use WordPress for redesign, with a fully responsive template that the Admins at meetNKY will be able to thoroughly edit in the future
  • Retain all current blog posts, event listings, etc. in redesign
  • Increase loading speed time to two seconds for each page of the site
  • Create a functional RSS feed of events and blogs
  • Correct/maintain full functionality throughout the site (such as: currently, hamburger menus don’t function correctly on Android devices when on certain (but not all) pages)
  • Add ability to embed YouTube videos on every page – including blog
  • Need unique/sharable links for each event listing (to link directly to each event on the Events page—currently only able to link to general events page)
  • CMS - add ability to enter dates of repeating events (right now requires cloning event and changing dates, resulting in excessive number of event listings to manage)
  • Automatic re-sizing of photos for blog page thumbnails/event thumbnails/stop listing thumbnails/etc. instead of manually resizing for each use
  • Ability to integrate the existing B-Line interactive map with embed code supplied by meetNKY OR create interactive Google map of The B-Line stops and link throughout the site as needed
  • Improve general ease of use for both the end user and CMS admins

The more I get acclimated to the new design, the better I like it. It feels clean and airy, like it is breathing.
