A new approach to digital platforms for successful media

The future of media is vested in the digital realm. But how do you approach the Web in a way that your brand experience stays deep, meaningful and social? And how do you make it so it builds and sustains growth?

In its 20-year history in media, Danilo Black has helped news organizations successfully converted print brands into digital hubs.

We trust that our “uncommonsense” approach to media websites will leverage your business plans. Our capabilities speak for it:

Digital strategy for a dynamic, multi-platform and socially rich user experience.

Web site design, development and implementation for compelling content delivery.

Development on top of au courant, open-source Drupal architectures.

Brand design consulting for web-based experiences.

Since the launch of the new Washington Times site, there have been substantial gains in the audience, and its well on its way to achieving the goals set out in the design brief. Of course building audience is a combination of design, usability, SEO efforts—and content. But features like The Cube, a topical navigation tool, enhances the siteʼs experience.
