Bean Group Wins Best NH Real Estate Site For 2006!

Bean Group is happy to have been awarded FIRST PLACE as "Best NH Real Estate Website For 2006" by NH.com through their NH Internet Awards Competition. We'd like to thank Agentmaster for their excellent work.

The criteria that was considered in judging a site are as follows:

Mission Accomplished The site should achieve its mission whether that mission is to sell widgets or sell stocks or keep employees informed. All content, artwork, and code should be relevant to the overall mission.

Navigation and Structure Navigation and structure refers to the overall organization of the site. Good structure and navigation enables the visitor to easily find what he or she is looking for and enable the visitor to move intuitively throughout the site. Good navigation helps the visitor get where he or she wants to go and get back without feeling lost.

Content Content refers to the information on the site. It should be easy to read, well written and concise as well as relevant to the site's mission. Good content should be appropriate to the site, useful and engaging.

Visual Design Visual design refers to the appearance of the site. Effective visual design doesn't have to be cutting-edge but should be effective and relevant to the site's mission and appealing to the visitor.

Interactivity An interactive site isn't just one with flashing banners and rollovers. An interactive site is one that invites the user to do something whether it be to chat, complete a feedback form, conduct commerce, play a game or search the site. Interactive elements do not have to be complex programs but should engage the user.

Functionality Functionality is the use of technology on the site and good functionality makes the technology invisible and focuses on the experience. Functionality includes working links, fast load times, and browser independence. All technology on the site should be relevant to the site's mission and not included for the sake of including it.

Overall Experience The overall experience of the site encompasses navigation, structure, content, visual design, interactivity, functionality and whether or not all of these criteria helps meet the site's mission.
