Client
Education.com, a premiere online resource combines authoritative reference content and compelling editorial with engaging social networking tools to create a vibrant community for parents with kids in preschool through grade 12.
Challenge
Create a community-based website for a start-up with a vision
Education.com needed a well-rounded partner who could step in and become a part of the team, contributing in many aspects of developing the brand and the community website. They were building their team and had many great ideas and talented staff, but needed a large team to hit the ground running to get education.com off the ground.
Solution
Education.com came for a website and left with a brand.
SolutionSet was asked to define, design, develop, and deploy a scalable portal to be the basis of Education.com’s new community web portal. SolutionSet created the brand identity for Education.com then provided visual and interface design for the site to make the site visually appealing and easy to use. SolutionSet developed the technical architecture and worked with Education.com to facilitate interaction with 3rd party and in-house systems for easy and reliable data interchange. The result: a world class community and content site and infrastructure ready to grow with the Education.com company.
