FD capital Locations

 Our location pages are really looking much smarter now also.  Have a look at Oxford as an example

FD Capital Oxford location page

It really is a big step forward compared to our older style website, shows that a good designer and coder working together can really work wonders.

Our other location pages look similarily attractive.

 Our blog is looking much better now, though it has lost some of the elements including the tags and categories that is an area I think we will need to revisit.   But look and feel wise it is much much better.

Our new FD Capital website is live

It is really great to finally see our new website live, the team spent the last 6 weeks working hard on the design, new content and improvements to the user experience.

We are pleased to say all of which are much better in this new version.

 
 
The site now looks like the above ))
 
See for yourself at https://www.fdcapital.co.uk/
 
There are many great new features such as the ability to sign up for our free guide to FD and CFO Recruitment. https://www.fdcapital.co.uk/guides/
 
Our blog archive is no longer active but you can still view the pages using their urls
 
 
I think you get the idea, you select the year, then the month and it displays the old archive pages, not sure why this isn't a freature in the new look and feel.  It maybe something we add in the next update, we will be slowly compiling a list of tasks for the developers to take another look at later in the year. 

Anyway a big THANKS to all concerns and a job well done.

Castovers - great for podcasting

We are enjoying podcasting so much we have decided to launch our own podcasting community, we've settled on the name castovers, yes we know its sounds a bit like leftovers but its memorable, short and includes a casting in the name.

You can view our progress here:- Castovers
 
There are lots of features we want to add - including a directory of podcasts, the ability to review, comment and rate podcasts and many more, but we have made a start and that is the important thing.

GT Metrix for Reporting Accounts

 

 GT Metrix

 

We used GT Metrix all of the time to check our progress with site performance, sadly as you can see the team still have a lot of work to do as the server Latency is awful at prestent it really is holding back the site.  The target always was an remains < 2 seconds

https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.reportingaccounts.com/P4Imywi0/

The good think is that we are aware of the code that is causing the delay and the team are working slowly on a resolution of the issue.

 

Amazon always comes out on top
