Townends Launches Property Website With New Apps And Tools

Jan. 6, 2012 - PRLog -- Townends, the well-known chain of estate agents operating in London and the South East have launched a fully-updatable and SEO-optimised website with a new design and sophisticated backend technology.

World Archipelago, the creative technical agency, worked closely with the team at Townends to enhance their mission to offer clients - whether they are vendors, buyers, tenants, landlords or developers - unrivalled levels of quality, service and value. Employing a host of property apps, the agency was able to style the functionality to suit a faster, more efficient production turn around. Impressive tools and functionality within the new website include surveys, a careers section, mortgage advice, customer comments and latest news.

The sophisticated new site also offers a My Site, where users can register in order to save properties, setup property alerts from saved searches and play a game. The registration for the My Site also gives Townends new tools to gather contact details for potential clients including the option to receive an electronic newsletter.

Kirstie Ayres, Group Marketing & Technology Director, Badger Holdings said “We are very pleased with the finished result and hope that the new site will encourage more customers to communicate and build relationships with us electronically through the Townends blog, regular quick poll and Twitter feed.”
