LBBC Launches Site

In conjunction with breast cancer awareness month, and after a year in the making, LBBC launches their new, greatly enhanced web site.

LBBC’s goal in redesigning their site was two fold. First, they needed a site that would be easily updated and second, the information needed to presented in a very user-friendly manner. LBBC also wanted to fold the look of their site into the newly created brand and color scheme created by Acquire Visual.

Over a period of months, Acquire worked with LBBC on developing the content structure, strategies for organizing, clustering and presenting information and an intuitive navigation schema for their site. From this map, we designed and built a fully integrated database driven web site that is clean, organized, content rich with an easy-to-use interface. This site also features a powerful administration tools that allow LBBC to easily update and manage information, assign search criteria and upload support files.

The new site provides the user with news, clinical trial updates, quality-of-life issues, links to additional resources, a calendar of our events and message boards. The core of this site, the advanced search, allows users to search for information in pre-determined categories or by entering key words, locate targeted information. Pertinent results are sorted and presented by type; events, publications, articles, news and clinical trials.
