Office space directory updates
December 16th, 2007 | by James Welch
As some of you may have noticed, we at Choregus have been building a very user-friendly office space directory over the past few weeks. Over the last few days, our technical programming geek-like person, Phil Norton, has added some of the features that we have been talking about in-house.
For example, below is a screenshot of a location in our database - Waterloo Road to be precise - that now shows the new features.
The new features include the enquiry form on the right. This, we feel, is very user-friendly as there is no scrolling involved and the form is very simple indeed, with just a few fields. We have not yet teamed up with a supplier of office space (or a broker) to give the data to, but this will happen in a few days/weeks we believe.
Another feature which we are extremely proud about is the local surrounding images. Through some very clever programming we can show images of the surrounding area of an office or business centre. Now, you can see what is around the area of your potential new business home. No other site has this in the world (or property site - Ed.) so, yes, we are very proud indeed.
We have now also included the text descriptions of locations - something that we have held back on so far. This should start to help with relevancy and people converting to use the form to get more information about a business centre.
As you can see, we still dont yet have images of offices, but as soon as we are teamed up with a supplier, this will be instantly online. Its a legal thing, this one…
We welcome any feedback about this section of the site, as it should become the breadwinner of the site in the future as we begin relationships with office space providers and brokers. So, come on, tell us what you think!
