Roanoke College Makes the Best of the Higher Ed Mobile Site List

About this post:

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 is also accessible to mobile users can create an added value that gives your company a competitive edge.

Here at NewCity, we understand the importance of giving our clients what they desire. To best serve our clients, we must first seek to understand the needs of their customers. As we realized that there is an increasing demand for information on the go, we created the mobile site for Roanoke College by incorporating the iPhone home screen so that users would already be familiar with the layout. The updated mobile site is compatible with iPhone, Android, and Palm. It features college news, sports, calendar, contact information and directions, daily dining menu, and even videos depicting campus events.
