We need a NEW Web 2.0, clean, fresh, modern and friendly design. It has to be attractive to business owners and users how are looking after the best offers in their city. We are NOT a usual Coupon Site OR a Groupon clone! Home page: The home page lists the latest offers in the system (both featured and non-featured / free ones). The home page also shows offline offers in a google map. Listing page: This page will list offers or stores, either by category , or by tag or by search result. Offline stores / offers should be shown in a googlemap too. Keep in mind that the listing page may contain both normal store offers and online offers, so a differentiation is required. Listings may contain a description text and a photo (none of those is required). Content page: This page will show a specific offer. The offer features a photo, text and offer-specific fields (for example : Lower price -40%). Moreover, the business making the offer should be presented too (logo, address and map location using googlemap). Online offers and groupon style offers will feature a buy now button. Offers can be commented and rated by users. Page notes: • All pages should have a header with the following functionality: o Logo, Twitter style login for sign up / registration o Search bar o User selects an offer category (through a drop-down menu) o User selects location (country / city etc) on top o Search textbox • All pages should have a footer with the following: o Various in-links to the site (grouped) o Facebook friend box o Link to facebook twitter o Social links and http://sharethis.com/ o Link to download our Android / iPhone / WinMO application • Some contents for front page: o Interactive google map which shows current offers and stores o Sign up banner (we will provide it) o Popular stores (online / offline / groupon) o Best offers based on user ratings o Latest offer ratings o Latest offers o Popular search queries o Offer alert banner (we will provide it) o Think Green banner (we will provide it) o Featured listings (this should be fancy, as clients pay for this) o List of store categories (each one having its own icon) ----- Auto and moto ----- Beauty ----- Discounter ----- Outlet ----- Super Market ----- Organic ----- Malls ----- Education centers / schools ----- Furniture ----- Food and Catering ----- Restaurants ----- Appliance store / Electronics ----- Liquor stores ----- Logistics ----- Transport ----- Toys and children services ----- Superstores ----- Clothing ----- Housing and Gardens ----- Tourism ----- Services ----- Tag clouds Some contents for listing page o Search results o Search query o Listing of offers (with some store information).
