Project Brief
Principal Analytics Inc. engaged CnEL India to build a polished, secure, and easy-to-manage WordPress website that reflects their brand, communicates services clearly, and supports future growth (blogs, careers, client showcases). The scope from the review meeting included: logo integration, a rotating hero slider, structured services and submenus, blog setup, contact form testing and spam prevention, a careers section, client logos display, LinkedIn-only social linking, and WordPress login & admin best practices.
Key Challenges
- Translate a B2B analytics brand into a modern, professional web presence while preserving clarity for service offerings.
- Architect the site so the marketing team can easily add blog posts, job postings, and client logos without developer intervention.
- Ensure secure, reliable contact flows with effective spam prevention and clear message routing.
- Deliver iterative demos and rapid updates based on client feedback while maintaining quality assurance.
Our Solution
CnEL India delivered a focused WordPress solution built for maintainability, performance, and security. Highlights of our approach:
- Brand Integration: Integrated the Principal Analytics logo and LinkedIn assets to ensure consistent visual identity across the site (Hero, Footer, About, Leadership).
- Interactive Hero Slider: Implemented a 3–4 slide timed hero section (auto-advance with controls) on the homepage to highlight core messages and CTAs.
- Service Architecture: Created separate pages and sub-menus for each of the three service categories so visitors can access detailed service pages directly from the main navigation.
- Content Management (Blogs): Built a blog framework (post types, categories, author templates) ready for the next demo and content handover so Principal Analytics can publish easily.
- Contact Form & Spam Prevention: Configured contact form routing, validated delivery endpoints, and added anti-spam measures (honeypot / reCAPTCHA or an equivalent lightweight solution) to prevent spam submissions while keeping UX simple.
- Careers Section: Developed a Careers page that outlines employee experience and contains a job postings area that can be updated from the WordPress admin.
- Leadership Pages: Implemented leadership profiles and removed comment capability from these pages to maintain professionalism and reduce moderation workload.
- Client Logos Showcase: Built a responsive, multi-row client logo carousel/grid so logos can be displayed across multiple lines and breakpoints.
- Social Links: Included only the LinkedIn icon (as requested) in header/footer social area.
- WordPress Admin & Security: Set up secure WordPress login best-practices, role-based access for editors, and a simple admin handover checklist for the client.
Execution & Collaboration
CnEL India used an iterative delivery cadence with weekly demos and review meetings. During the initial phase the team:
- Completed theme selection ensuring compatibility with required features (slider, blog, job listings, logo gallery).
- Prepared page templates for Services, Leadership, Careers, and Blog index.
- Performed initial contact form routing tests and documented where messages are delivered for client verification.
- Disabled comments on Leadership pages and adjusted discussion settings per request.
The team will continue working on blog content integration, final QA, accessibility checks, and a full demo for the next scheduled review.
Why CnEL India Was the Right Choice
- Proven WordPress Expertise: Deep experience selecting and customizing themes and plugins so the site is maintainable and fast.
- Client-first Process: Rapid iterations, clear meeting notes, and action items after each demo keep stakeholders aligned and ensure visible progress.
- Security & Reliability: WordPress hardening, role-based access control, and spam prevention guard the site while enabling a straightforward editorial workflow.
- UX that Converts: Thoughtful hero messaging, clear service pages, and visible CTAs built to guide enterprise and partner inquiries.
