A Clear Round for a multiple-media.com Client

multiple-media.com’s expertise is highlighted in an E-zine on effective Web sites for businesses, published by a Quebec portal, rezopointzero. Right from the onset, publisher Vallier Lapierre emphasizes the value of usability for business websites: “In 2011, usability is of paramount importance, much more so than aesthetics.”

Effective Web sites for businesses from RézoPointZéroIt so happens that usability–also called ergonomics, or “user experience”–has been a major focus of the Montreal web agency since its creation, nearly 15 years ago.

The well-documented and well-researched publication includes analyses, best practices and case studies, one of which is about CAA-Quebec. The article relates the major stages of a Web project which the well-known organization carried out with the help of multiple-media.com. Initiated in 2007, the entire process involved strategic planning, ergonomics, graphic design, usability tests, rebuilding the transactional section, etc. All along the way, the focus remained the same: improve conversion rates.

The publication gives a tip of the hat to a geolocalisation application, one of the web agency’s major accomplishments. Developed in record time, the application sends out queries to the AAA databases in U.S., integrating information about the sales outlets of CAA-Quebec partners and displaying the information within an entirely French user interface.

The article underlines the fact that “user-centered design is beneficial for website visitors but also for those who must use Intranets, particularly in the case of an organization as sophisticated as CAA-Quebec.”

Finally, multiple-media.com president Renato Cudicio also took part, along with four other Web agency leaders, in a roundtable about “The characteristics of an effective Web site in 2011”.
