Meant to blog about this a couple of weeks ago but never got round to doing it.
Anyway, the clue to the post is in the title. This was a site I designed whist working with the incredibly talented colleagues I once worked with at Interesource. It’s great that the site has been recognised, partly because it’s acknowledgment of our own work but also of the trust DogsTrust (no pun intended) put in us to build it and make it work.
We had loads of ideas for monetising the site from on-demand printing to paid for treats. I truly hope the site continues its development and goes from strength to strength both in growing its user base and being a pro-active marketing tool for the superb work of the charity.
