      <title>Industry Leading Wealth Management Website Launched With Award Winning London Digital Agency, Cyber-Duck</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Liberty Wealth Management’s industry leading and visually stunning web experience launches with the help of User Experience Architects; Cyber-Duck.</p><p>Elstree, Hertfordshire -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 04/17/2012 --  Award winning web design agency Cyber-Duck today officially launched a website for Liberty Wealth Management, an independent wealth management website for international expats seeking professional financial advice in Switzerland.<br />
<br />
Liberty Wealth Management, a wealth management business based in Switzerland, offers independent, personal and professional advice to international workers residing in Switzerland and the rest of the world on a range of services which include investment advice, pension transfers (International SIPPS, QROPS and QNUPS), foreign exchange, international banking, property financing and financial planning. The new website is one of the world&apos;s first wealth management websites produced using adaptive web design, so the website&apos;s content and user interfaces adapt to different devices (such as laptops, iPhones and iPads). The website also boasts detailed downloadable guides, a blog and a cleverly crafted foreign exchange calculator.<br />
<br />
Liberty Wealth Management was established back in 2010 and was formed as a result of an independent break away from a large international investment management group. This meant the team assembled to continue the business venture had a wealth of experience and were well versed on the specific needs of international expats living in Switzerland and industry trends. On top of that the company&apos;s independent status allows Liberty Wealth Management to work solely on behalf of the client, with no bias towards individual providers.<br />
<br />
Visitors and clients are welcomed to communicate with Liberty Wealth Management through their brand new and artistically appealing adaptive website. The new website was produced via an award winning UCD (User Centred Design) philosophy which included card-sorting techniques, keyword research and stakeholder interviews to ensure high standards and increased visibility on search engines. The website was developed with an Agile project management (SCRUM) mind-set ensuring that key stakeholders and target users of the website were continually involved in the production of the website.<br />
<br />
Founder of Liberty Wealth Management, Iain MacRitchie was overwhelmed with the creative direction and support of the Cyber-Duck team, stating "It&apos;s been an extremely busy time for the whole team here at Liberty Wealth and we were thrilled to have chosen Cyber-Duck as our dedicated digital agency who helped us every step of the way and ensured the smooth launch of the new website. We now have an online brand presence and one that exceeds the offerings of competitors in our industry so we&apos;re extremely pleased".<br />
<br />
Cyber-Duck&apos;s Development Director Sylvain Reiter was also delighted with the launch, stating "It&apos;s been a pleasure to work alongside Iain and his team who have had valuable input into the build of the website. We&apos;re delighted to now see the website launch and we&apos;ll continue to work alongside Liberty Wealth to ensure future success for the Liberty Wealth brand"  <br />

      <title>Cyber-Duck; Award Winning Agency Launches Interactive Website for Private London Cardiology Clinic</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">London Cardiovascular Clinic reveals a brand new web presence with the help of Award Winning Digital Agency Cyber-Duck.</p><p>Elstree, Hertfordshire -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 01/30/2012 --  Cyber-Duck, an award winning digital agency based in London, have announced their second major client launch of 2012 with a website for Private London Cardiologist professionals, the London Cardiovascular Clinic. The production boasts a modern, clinical design which has been customised to deliver an exemplary user experience to the company&apos;s international audience. <br />
<br />
London Cardiovascular Clinic is a private London-based clinic offering cardiology treatment for a range of complex cardiac problems. The company approached Cyber-Duck with a brief to completely rejuvenate their website, ensuring it matched the superior level of care provided at the clinic. After a vigorous agency selection process, the company opted for the services of Cyber-Duck. <br />
<br />
Cyber-Duck&apos;s user-centred design process has evolved over 7 years, and entails continuous stakeholder feedback, user testing and competitor research to ensure a supreme user-experience in the end product. <br />
<br />
After research uncovered that mobile users made up a significant proportion of the existing website visitors, it was also important that this was taken into consideration. This led to the decision being made that the most inclusive approach would be to use an adaptive web design philosophy; meaning that the website adapts to a range of screen resolutions to provide an optimum experience no matter what device. <br />
<br />
The resulting website boasts a visually stunning, user-centred design which is fully manageable from a customised Content Management System, meaning the London Cardiovascular Clinic team can easily create and update any content on the website and blog. <br />
<br />
Integral to the strategy behind the website was that video was to be a significant element; Cyber-Duck produced videos which demonstrated the top of the range facilities at the clinic, as well as members of the team talking about the services offered.<br />
<br />
On top of this, the website was built not only with the user, but also search engines in mind, ensuring that already high keyword rankings were retained wherever possible, and providing a solid platform to increase search engine visibility further still.<br />
<br />
In conjunction with the launch of the new website, the London Cardiovascular Clinic&apos;s Cardiologist Dr Iqbal Malik was interviewed at Hammersmith Hospital by Krishnan Guru-Murthy for Channel 4 News. Dr Malik was interviewed by Channel 4 on the decreasing number of heart attacks in the UK, and he spoke in depth about the reasons behind this decreasing number, the process todays doctors have to go through when treating a patient, as well as providing a detailed description of how todays heart surgeons use an angiogram to determine if a heart condition is present.<br />
<br />
Dr Iqbal Malik said upon launch of the website, "Everyone at the London Cardiovascular Clinic is thrilled with the finished product and we thank Cyber-Duck for their knowledge and attention to detail. Their innovative "basecamp" communication system really helped us communicate our needs, and we were impressed at how close the final delivery was to the original timelines."<br />
<br />
Cyber-Duck&apos;s Managing Director Danny Bluestone was full of praise for the project team, "A great deal of time and effort was put into the new London Cardiovascular Clinic website and it&apos;s safe to say the new production is one we are all proud of. I think we have produced yet another inspiring production, which I&apos;m certain will be followed by plenty more."<br />

      <title>Award Winning Digital Agency Wins Another Award for Work With the European Commission</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">The EU: What’s in it for me? Claims ‘Outstanding Achievement’ Award at the 2011 Interactive Media Awards.</p><p>Borehamwood, Hertfordshire -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 07/28/2011 --  London based Digital Agency Cyber-Duck have continued their award winning ways this week as they announced that they have won yet another award for their work on a project for the European Commission: &apos;The EU: What&apos;s in it for me?&apos; The entry was one of 105 in the Governmental category, and was one of a handful of recipients to take away an &apos;Outstanding Achievement&apos; Award.<br />
<br />
The Interactive Media Awards were launched in 2006 by the Interactive Media Council, and were designed as a way of providing accomplished and talented web professionals with the endorsements and tools necessary to become recognised in the world of web design. Nominations are accepted from websites in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese and Russian, which showcases the world wide recognition of the prestigious awards.<br />
<br />
The award has added to earlier success for &apos;The EU: What&apos;s in it for me?&apos; since the launch of the website in November 2010, with an array of online interactive awards having already been presented for the website, including a Communicator Award and a Horizon Interactive Award.<br />
<br />
This has continued a successful year for Cyber-Duck who can boast multiple awards already in 2011 including wins and nominations at the Communicator Awards, Horizon Interactive Awards, Webby Awards and TrainETrade Awards.<br />
<br />
For &apos;The EU: What&apos;s in it for me?&apos; to win such an award, they had to successfully go through a strict judging process comprising of a points based scoring system. Websites are judged on their design, content, feature functionality, usability, standards compliance and cross-browser compatibility. <br />
<br />
The brief for the project was to base the new website around the EU&apos;s popular printed &apos;What&apos;s in it for me?&apos; booklet, providing users with information on EU decisions and how they affect UK citizens. Cyber-Duck&apos;s role was to take this information and add interactivity, rich media and search tools, powered by an easy to use and secure Content Management System from which EU staff could self-sufficiently populate and update content.<br />
<br />
Cyber-Duck implemented their User Centred Design methodology into the project, which included the use of focus groups, web analytics research and their eye tracking technology to make the best decisions on how to build the website to make it as easy as possible to use to the target audience.<br />
<br />
Antonia Mochan, Head of Media for the European Commission in the UK was of course delighted with the EU website coming away with another accolade. "Yet again, this is great news. We have been delighted with the website and all success it has achieved since it launched late last year.  We got a lot out of our work with Cyber-Duck on creating the site and this award is another cherry on the cake." <br />
<br />
Cyber-Duck Production Director Matt Gibson was elated with the continued success of The EU&apos;s website, stating "It&apos;s great to know that we have again been recognised for the team&apos;s outstanding work, which helps to cement our status as one of the UK&apos;s leading award winning digital agencies. The European Commission were a delightful client to work with, who continued to help and support us throughout the entirety of the project. All of this contributed to us producing a multiple award winning website".<br />

      <title>Award Winning Digital Agency Takes 2 Horizon Interactive Awards in 2010</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">The EU: What’s in it for me? and OfficeCavalry.com win Gold and Silver at the 2010 Horizon Interactive Awards.</p><p>Borehamwood, Hertfordshire -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) --05/12/2011 --  The winners of the 2010 Horizon Interactive Awards were announced last week, with Award Winning Digital Agency, Cyber-Duck winning two awards for their work. OfficeCavalry.Com scooped a Silver Award in the B2B category and The EU: What&apos;s in it for me? claimed an impressive Gold Award in the Governmental Agency category.<br />
<br />
2010 marked the 9th annual celebration of the Horizon Interactive Award&apos;s which celebrates and acknowledges "outstanding achievement among interactive media producers", with the judging panel looking for "the best blend between creativity and functionality." This year&apos;s competition saw over a thousand entrants from all 50 American states, as well as 22 other countries worldwide. All entries are eligible to win bronze, silver or gold awards, with Cyber-Duck previously tasting success by winning bronze awards for their own website in 2007 and 2009.<br />
<br />
The European Commission website (The EU: What&apos;s in it for me?) is one of only 66 entrants to walk away with the coveted Gold Award. The project was based around the EU&apos;s popular printed booklet providing users with information on EU decisions and how they affect UK citizens. Cyber-Duck&apos;s role was to take this information and add interactivity, rich media and search tools, powered by an easy to use and secure CMS where the EU could self sufficiently populate content.  As a Gold Winner, the website is eligible for the Best of Category and Best of Show awards (the highest accolades offered by Horizon Interactive).<br />
<br />
Antonia Mochan, Head of Media for the European Commission in the UK was suitably thrilled with the award, saying "This reward justifies both our decision to create an online version of our popular &apos;What&apos;s in it for me?&apos; booklet, as well as our decision to select Cyber-Duck as the Digital Agency to lead us in the right direction. Their design process was firmly focussed on the user through the use of eye tracking technology, focus groups and web analytics research. It&apos;s this approach, coupled with their enthusiasm and creativity, which has helped to make the new website a resounding success".<br />
<br />
The Silver Award for OfficeCavalry.com comes just a month after their Webby Award success, where they were awarded an &apos;Official Honouree&apos; title in the category of employment. The innovative freelancing SaaS portal was created to provide freelancers with an opportunity to profile themselves and promote their skills, as well as offering an easy solution for business owners who are struggling to meet tight deadlines. <br />
<br />
Cyber-Duck MD Danny Bluestone was thrilled with the news stating "It&apos;s great news to hear that these projects have been given the due recognition they deserve. We are very proud of both productions, which are down to the hard work of our skilful and dedicated team, and the help and support of our clients. We hope we can continue the award winning trend with some exciting projects currently in the pipeline".<br />

      <title> Cyber-Duck Win Top Web Award With Greenstone.com</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Cyber-Duck have won a prestigious web award for their stunning and functional web2.0 production for Greenstone.com, a leading north west London property agency. </p><p>London, UK -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/21/2007 --   St Johns Wood estate agents Greenstone required a site with a fresh and distinctive look, easy to use GUIs and search tools for buyers and sellers looking for residential properties in London. The aim of the Greenstone.com site Cyber-Duck produced was to increase communication between potential clients and Greenstone whilst improving rankings on search engines.<br />
<br />
The new Greenstone.com website this month won the prestigious real estate standard of excellence award as decided by a select jury of industry professionals at the Web Marketing Associations WebAward™.<br />
<br />
Danny Bluestone of the award winning web design firm Cyber-Duck commented: "Cyber-Duck are proud to have been recognised for their work by such a prominent authority such as WebAwards.org.  The fact that Greenstone.com won this award is a testament to our progressive and innovative attitude towards web production where we always strive for the perfect balance between stunning art direction and Web 2.0 functionality centred on the user."<br />
<br />
The project brief for Greenstone.com was to increase sales and lettings by incorporating user friendly Web 2.0 technology, Live Chat functionality and interactive Call Backs (using Lightbox technology) into the site.  As part of the brief Cyber-Duck incorporated dynamic interactive maps (using Multimap technology) into the property search results with clickable properties appearing on maps.<br />
<br />
A highly efficient, custom made CRM was also developed to help alert Greenstone&apos;s lettings and sales agents in &apos;real-time&apos; of new enquiries and to enable them to easily manage those enquiries.  A bespoke CMS system to input properties and images into the database was also implemented to minimize the amount of time the sales and lettings team spent updating and adding new content and images. Greenstone.com is also extremely search engine friendly and is accessible so that disabled users can easily access and view all information.<br />
