Business Challenge

Asset Protection Planners, Inc. needed strong, corporate-look-and-feel online website that would showcase their recent work, list the services company provides - all in a nice and clear way. The future site was expected to be easily editable so that site administrators and responsible people could have full control over site content management.

Project Outline

Quintagroup designed and developed a brand-new website based on the Plone Content Management System. Great attention was also paid to site's visibility for Search Engines, thus, a lot of work was done in terms of SEO. Plone version used - is Plone 2.1.2. We used quite a bunch of Plone add-ons to allowing necessary site functionality.

SEO Issues

Content's title tag, meta description tag, and meta keywords tag are key aspects that contribute to improving site's visibility in search engine result pages. That is why we used Plone SEO product to set such meta tags & keywords that could make this site more visible. All content meta tags become easily editable in SEO properties window for separately each content item.

We used Plone Google Sitemaps to create nice site's Sitemap with complete listing of website content URLs that are supposed to be indexed. This allows us to control which element to include/exclude from Google index.

Note: Even though this site is built on top of Plone CMS, most site pages go with the extension .asp (e.g. http://www.assetprotectionplanners.com/strategies/index.asp). This can be explained by the attempt to keep site value with Search Engines. Since old site pages had .asp extension, they were not changed during migration into Plone; and remained the same on the new site version due to SEO purpose

Navigation

Custom navigation titles are used on this website: site's folders' titles are not used in the global navigation. The reason for custom titles usage is that navigation items should be short and clear so that a visitor could easily navigate on site, find necessary information, while page titles are usually long and informative. To make navigation clear and usable every folder can have special title set to be displayed in the navigation. This functionality came with qSiloGroup product that enables creating navigation titles different from documents' titles. This product also allows to select items (which a folder contains) to be displayed in the navigation. In the left column of SiloNavigation table select elements to be displayed in the navigation, in the right column change navigation titles.

Performance

To improve site's load speed we developed a special product qPloneSkinCleanedTemplates that allows to decrease HTML size of pages, which also made them more friendly for the search engines. With its help we got rid of blank lines, gabs, unnecessary tags, etc. As a result HTML code was made clear containing no useless tags.

Online Forms

There are several online forms on this website aimed to let site visitors contact site's administration and company members. To validate human input in these forms and prevent them from being submitted automatically we used Plone Captchas product that adds captcha to all Plone forms.
