Publishing task 2 sharing research.
What?
With the current
world rapidly moving online more and more each day every industry has to adapt.
Looking for a construction company or a tradesman in the current world you need
to individually call construction companies or go on their websites to find the
correct tradesman, there are websites out there that simplify the task such as
tradesman.ie but these are few and far between, and could be done better in
many cases. The objective of the website is to be a database of tradesman and
construction/maintenance companies with their numbers and a little bit about
them and a direct contact to arrange what needs to be done. The website
would also include reviews and ability to leave reviews for each tradesman.
Why?
Looking for tradesmen
should be simplified and this website can take away a lot of time wasting looking
for tradesmen or construction companies. This website will also allow you to
save money if you are overpaying. You can easily compare different prices and
find the best price for whatever job you need done. This site will be easier to
use than previous sites in this area. This website will also help consumers
find trustworthy tradesmen and companies allowing end users to feel safer with
their choice. This will attract more users to the website. Another reason for
the website is to make it look better than the rest, other websites use low
quality images that look dated this will give this website an edge with high
quality images.
The features in the
website
When you enter the
website you will be greeted by several search options for different types of
tradesman followed by the different types of jobs needed done, When selected
this will take you to a list of tradesman that would provide this sort service
there will be a short bio about where they are based, and some reviews from
previous jobs, this will be scrollable. When clicked on a specific tradesman
there will be some contact information and a direct contact messaging ability
to the tradesman to ask questions about price time schedule etc.
How?
The website will
achieve this by having a simple to use UI allowing the end user to focus on
what they need to find instead of having to worry about navigation. This
reflects the goal of the website which is to simplify the search for tradesmen.
