Roanoke College Makes the Best of the Higher Ed Mobile Site List
One of our favorite clients, Roanoke College, was featured on the .eduGuru’s “Best of the Mobile Higher Ed Web” list.
We created the mobile site as a Christmas gift for Roanoke College- a Marketing Department can only eat their way through so many Harry & David towers. What sparked the idea for a mobile site? With the increasing demand for online communication, the ability for site visitors to access your website at their convenience is vital. Making sure that the key content on your site…
