600 more restaurant offers
Wednesday, July 15th, 2009
Just added: 600 more restaurant offers
This is a quick update to say we have just completed work on a new partnership with 5pm to bring all of their restaurant offers to BView. If I was a betting man I’d also take a punt that the BView restaurant offers directory is now the largest in the UK.
Happy eating!

BView redesign is now live!
Thursday, June 4th, 2009
Hi there, Kat the designer here!
Myself and the whole rest of BView have been working really hard in the last few months to redesign BView. It’s gone live today… Go have a look around. We haven’t changed any of the functionality; instead, we’ve just made the look more modern, and the ability to move through and contribute to the site easier! It’s going to be refined over the next few months, but I hope you like it as much as I do (or if you don’t, please let me know)! Here’s a few highlights from the design.
Search for vouchers and businesses

before, you could only search for businesses, and the display wasn't very prominent
We’ve made the ability for you to search for businesses, or switch to search for vouchers as a function of the search, front and centre at the top of the page. We have a very good, very fast search function, and it’s the easiest way to find businesses and money saving.

Now, it's the dominant feature on the page, and you can specify whether you want to search for businesses or vouchers
Simplified home page

Before it wasn't very clear what our company did from the homepage
In the past, we had been packing as much info as possible onto the homepage, but it meant that first time users who landed on the page were overwhelmed and couldn’t get a quick sense of what we do. The new version picks out the most important aspects of our site and mirrors our slogan, gives people some navigation to get exploring and gives some solid examples of content for those areas.

Now, we have a simplified homepage focusing on our strengths
Review entry right on the business profile
Before, people had to navigate to a new page in order to write a review. Now, it’s right there on the business profile page. We’ve also put in helpers to describe what the ratings mean.

Users don't have to navigate away from the main page to write their reviews
Simplified navigation

Before, navigation and actions were all over the page, and difficult to find for first time users
Before, navigation wasn’t consistently in the same place, buttons were all over the place, and the actions for a business weren’t very prominent. Now, actions are always in the green menu, in the same place and prominently designed.

Now, actions displayed on business profile, user profile and voucher pages in the same place, and prominently placed in the green note card
Simplified voucher display

Before, the logo (and business name and category) was repeated for every voucher, even though it was displayed just above
Voucher search results display the logo, business name and category to give you a quick picture of the offerings, but when you’re on a business profile, that stuff is already there, and in the same frame in the business details. So, we’ve simplified the voucher display for the business profile page to stop the repetition.

New display looks much cleaner, especially for businesses with multiple vouchers
Focus on the business

Before, related content was included right in the business's profile, with nothing to distinguish it
Before, we put a lot of related content in with the business profile. For the redesign we’ve made a real effort to put the spotlight on the business, and a clear distinction from related content. This has meant a more simplified sidebar with less content, and the related businesses and reviews being put into the footer. This way, we’ve let the primary content shine through, and people will be able to visually understand what is part of that business and what is not.

Now, related content is now in the footer, and obviously separate from the business, and related vouchers are in the sidebar
Bolder, more colourful design

Before, the layout felt cramped and grey
We’ve brought in some reds, greens and blues along with the tan to make the whole page feel friendlier. We’ve also made sure to let the content have room to breath.

The new design has more space, more context and more colour
Consistency and hierarchy
We’ve spent a lot of time creating a hierarchy of links and buttons. This means that we’ve been thinking a lot more about how people view the page, what they notice, and what fades into the background. Because we have so many links on an average page (sometimes more than 75!), we’ve made a big effort to make important links stand out, and to let the rest still look like links, but blend in enough so on first glance they are not the first thing you see.
We’ve also brought the font of the logo into the design (on buttons and header bars) in order to make the whole design look more cohesive. This new hierarchy also means that when we’re putting features into the page, there’s a system in place that the new element must fit in to. If you’re interested in the more in-depth discussion on the design and hierarchy, you can read about it here. I go through the hierarchy and more on the process behind it.
What do you think?
I would love your feedback (whether it’s scalding or not) on what you think works or what you think doesn’t!

Online Discounts – Getting the best deal possible
Monday, May 4th, 2009
I don’t know about you, but when I find a discount code for something I’m planning on buying it gives me a nice warm feeling as I know I’m going to be saving some money. Sometimes though there are more than one code available because of the way some companies design things, and in order to get the best deal possible you have to calculate how much you’ll get off with each code to work out which is going to be best for you.
The other day I had one where I was buying an item online and there were two codes available. One offered me 10% off anything in the store, and free delivery, the other offered me £20 off if I was spending £100 or more. The item I was buying was £120 so I knew I could use either code. At first glance, I thought that the 10% off and free delivery was going to give me the best deal, but just to be certain I did have to do a bit of working out to see which worked out best. Here’s how I did my workings out:
Basic Price £120.
Delivery £5.95.
First Code – 10% off + Free Delivery = (£120-10%=£108) – Total Cost after Code: £108.
Second Code – £20 off = (£120-£20+£5.95) – Total cost £105.95
Not a lot in it as you can see, but if I’d used the first code – the one I’d thought would save me the most - I wouldn’t have saved quite so much money, and I do always like to save as much as possible. It’s nice having multiple discounts available, specially at the moment when we’re all trying to save as much as we can, but do make sure you do your maths carefully or you could miss out on the best deal.#
