SeniorInsider.com -- Logo and Wireframes Included!
We are a leading edge online advertising company that focuses on high demand consumer products and services. The project that we are currently working on is a resource that would provide information about various types of care options for seniors and the elderly. The care options would include senior housing, in-home care, assisted living, retirement communities, insurance services such as Medicare and Medicare Supplements, Long Term Care insurance, senior mobility options, etc.
This is a new portal launch
These are some sample sites, but we want our site to be much better!
1. http://www.caring.com/ (other senior sites)
2. http://www.seniorsforliving.com/ (other senior sites)
3. http://www.marthastewart.com/ (fits the demographics)
4. http://www.greatschools.com (good call to action forms)
5. http://foursquare.com/ (cool background and clean)
6. http://www.bing.com (clean and fresh)

Fonts used to create the design
We request using iStockPhoto to select images for the design. Upon selecting a winner, we request that the designer provides us the stock image id number from iStockPhoto so that we can purchase the user license for the images. Once we purchase the images, we will send the images to the designer and we ask that the designer incorporates the optimized and licensed images into the design during the design handover.
