Riversix is a successful marketing and training consultancy specialising in financial markets in the city of London. The original idea, that became www.riversix.net, was for a CD based system that would encapsulate existing training courses that were making software companies more successful at selling into financial markets.

We were engaged early in the project, contributing some of the research, content and course creation. But we also advised that a CD based system would be difficult to create and manage and that a web based solution would work better so long as some significant features could be incorporated.... without breaking the bank!

In particular the website had to be secure and only allow access to its valuable training materials to subscribers. There are multiple levels of subscribers, each level having access to a different selection of content.

We also demonstrated that other valuable content and latest news could be added into the website that would enrich the training. We were able to seamlessly integrate over 200 news feeds, selectively pulling the latest news on defined topics, into the website.

As the website grew (it currently has over 3,000 pages) we realised that navigation would be an issue, how would you find what you are looking for? We designed clear menu's but added 'tags' too. These are topic based links between documents. Each page can be associated with any number of topics so that all the documents on a particular topic might be viewed together wherever they may be on the website.
