Project’s scope
The goal of our cooperation with iteo was a thorough refresh of the company’s website, making it clear, well organized and easily editable. Apart from changing the whole design, the focus laid strongly on the content part – it was supposed to be fully controllable by the iteo marketing team without the in-hand help of the developers.
Additionally, the website needed to be flexible and expandable, offering convenient tools for marketing campaigns and employer branding activities.
Development
Challenges and solutions
-
01.
Iterative manner of work
We applied an agile and iterative manner of work, having a common Slack channel, communicating on a regular basis, and meeting twice a week. The process engaged 20 people at its peak.
-
02.
Blog migration
We seamlessly migrated more than a hundred blog posts from the previous page (headless WordPress CMS), transferring styles, assets, links, categories, tags and all the necessary elements that defined the content. At the same time, we created a new blog template as it’s the element of the site used regularly by the company’s content editors.
-
03.
SEO friendly
We revised the sitemap and made proper divisions within CMS, organized the links essential for SEO, and adjusted the number of new technology subpages. They were all taken care of when it comes to SEO custom Open graph image, meta title, meta description, and internal SEO audit.

04.
Ongoing support
We provided iteo with our constant post-launch support, being available on Slack and integrating it with a website uptime monitoring to make sure everything works as planned. We check the page’s backend once a week and update the tools. If needed, we prepare new custom features and respond to ongoing marketing campaigns, supporting them with the website’s functionality extension. Because the page is highly scalable, we can create custom pieces of layout and add them any time if necessary.
API Integration
iteo’s HR team had to be fully in control of the job offers displayed on the website, including intuitive content editing without developers help, as well as job offers categorization with the type and location division. We matched the CMS with tomHRM using API, staying in touch with the tomHRM team and thoroughly studying their documentation.
The connection was custom-made, created specifically for the iteo website and its contact forms, and the integration works two ways – the content can be edited live, simultaneously both in the CMS and tomHRM.
The process required robust tests and compaginating with tomHRM’s production environment, and the integration had to be done according to the safety procedures required by ISO and GDPR.
