Other Media

📈 "Not only was traffic up substantially compared to previous editions but it remained high into the following week."

This wonderfully creative idea by Swansea City Football Club, to get fans interacting with their digital platforms, saw results not just during the campaign but sustained engagement beyond.

The new format of the digital matchday programme saw fantastic engagement and, thanks to the great new format and the fantastic content, fans kept coming back.

🖍 25 years of an evolving brand mark:

back to binary: 0111

The representation of the "O" and "M" of Other Media visually in zeros and ones depicts the binary code behind all our digital work and that's why we feel a real affinity to our logo.

What do Marcus Rashford, Simone Biles, Max Verstappen, and Other Media have in common?

They are, of course, all great examples of the sporting elite* but they also happen to have all turned 25 this year 🎂

It was in November 1997 that Other Media was incorporated and began following a mission to improve lives through digital.

We're represented here by our Chief Morale Officer, Hayley, who has been a part of the team for the past few years.

So many things have changed in 25 years - not least of all the technology that we're now working with (anyone remember CD-ROMs?). Equally so much has remained constant - our ethos of the best possible solution, not just something that ticks a box; our team being made up of real experts who have a nerdy obsession with searching for a better way; our love of cake.

We've had some really nostalgic moments looking back at the brands we've worked with, the projects delivered, the studios we've inhabited, and the cakes we've devoured...we'll be indulging ourselves by sharing some of these throughout the month (the throwbacks, not just the cakes) and will probably manage to get some more dog photos in there too 🐶

(*ok so as people the peak of our sporting abilities isn’t quite in the same league but as an agency we’re proud to be up there.)

⚽️ The Championship table: how has your team’s website fared in a fundamental security test? ⚽️

Following on from an enlightening assessment of Premier League websites’ security we bring you the follow-up (including the teams heading to the top flight next season).

🤫 Spoiler alert: the top 4 all have something in common…shout out to Cardiff City Football Club, Peterborough United, Swansea City Football Club, and West Bromwich Albion for taking website security as seriously as design.

How a website looks, feels, and performs is something we place a great deal of emphasis and focus on but security should never be neglected.

There's only one Premier League football club meeting these best practice standards in cyber security. So how do the Championship clubs stack up?

You know about responsive images but what about an even more considered, dynamic solution for keeping the important stuff right there on the screen?

They're ambitious over at Peterborough United and we love working on details like this that make the user experience spot on.
