Compu8 announce launch of Student Patch, a new Student Comparison and Resource website for Belfast

April 21, 2011 - PRLog -- Student Patch (http://www.studentpatch.com) provides comparison information on everything involved in student life and is specific to the Belfast area, giving localised and relevant information. After what Compu8 expect to be a successful launch with Student Patch Belfast, they intend to take their product to London, Manchester, Liverpool, Edinburgh and beyond.  

Students constantly struggle with budgeting and are often unaware of the offers that are out there for them. Through extensive and continuing research, the Compu8 team has ensured that students can find everything they need with the lowest prices in their area. Comparisons will be available across;

•   Accommodation – find the cheapest and best accommodation with prices, user ratings/reviews and pictures of properties.
•   Banking – Discover which bank provides you with the best student accounts including overdraft limits, rates and perks.
•   Computing – The best offers for laptops, memory pens, printers etc. all of which are vital for Uni students.
•   Food – For both groceries and eating out, Student Patch gives you the best places to go with the cheapest prices, user reviews and directions of how to get there.
•   Nightclubs & Bars – An very important section for students, info is available of all student nights in different bars and nightclubs, the drink prices and entry fees of all these locations as well as types of music played.

As well as all of this, news, articles and blogs will be available, all relevant to Students in Belfast. The articles will be geared towards helping students maximise their student experience for minimum expense. Articles include help with writing assignments, advice of which laptops to buy etc.

Local and national businesses/ebusinesses will also have the opportunity to advertise through Student Patch as there is a content-management system in place to allow businesses to update and maintain their details and have access to web stats and track clicks to their websites. For more information and fees for advertising on student patch go to the Advertise With Us page.

Student Patch appears to have genuine potential to become a vital extension to student’s daily lives and there is room for growth and further development of this pioneering website. Compu8’s Marketing/Legal Director Anton McGonnell stated “As a recent University graduate I would have found such a system incredibly useful as I struggled to cope financially and often lacked the knowledge and street-smartness needed to make the most of my University experience, especially in the early days, living away from home when I was used to having everything done for me. We genuinely believe we are providing a solution to the most common and costly problems with student life of unawareness and lack of basic skills in budgeting, cooking, knowledge of events/societies and academic skills.”
