I had known the founder of Valley Life for nearly 10 years!
So when he contacted me during Covid wanting to start working on a completely new site for Valley Life Magazine ready to unveil at the end of the year, I was delighted!
As always, we had various meetings working out the best way to improve Valley Life’s digital ability to engage with readers all around the world and be able to compete with other online magazines.
One of the bespoke items he requested was to display a map on the Home page showing the areas each magazine covers.
Improve the visibility on search engines so it can be found easily online by potential readers and increase qualified traffic to the website.

What happened next.
I created a glossy-magazine-style website to improve visitor’s experience.
After testing numerous options, I finally used Google to create an interactive map for the Home page which clearly indicates each area that each magazine covers.
I added SEO including, keywords and phrases, readability and settings for Social Media to make the website much more visible to search engines like Google.
Deliverables
- Dual Language Setup
- Re-design of existing Pages
- Re-design of existing Posts
- Add Social Media Share Links
- Re-creation of Logo
- Creation of Interactive Map
- Basic SEO & Analytics setup
- Bespoke User Manual PDF for each magazine
- PDF download system
Here you can see how the website turned out.


I still work monthly with Valley Life updating all the systems that run the website. I also add new magazine editions as the are created and the company expands.
