An already large well-established site was showing its age and needed to be brought up to date with the latest WordPress themes & designs. I modernised the design and made the daily and weekly specials the big hero for this multipurpose bar, restaurant & sports bar. Using Event Calendar plugins, I was able to have upcoming events displayed that pushed schema markup to Google, so they began appearing on SERP.
Additional requested features were a pop-up booking form, so clients did not have to navigate away to make a booking. Also, a functions pack that send to client’s on request, both were implemented using Gravity Forms.
Working with their existing VPS based cPanel host I was able to squeeze the most out of PHP and their limited options to get the site’s performance consistent for the volume of traffic that they received.
Sadly, due to the owner’s decision they ceased trading in 2019.
Project Highlights:
- Large traffic volume
- Working with existing VPS cPanel provider limitations
- Events Calendar implementation
- Sending attachment on form entry with Gravity Forms
