Golf Digest is one of the iconic golf news brands internationally, previously owned by Condenast now owned by Discovery Inc.
Golf Digest Ireland for more than a decade produced the leading printed and online publications “Golf Digest Ireland”, “Golfing Magazine” and “Golfingweekly” and also operated one the most popular amateur golf tournaments in Ireland under the banner "Golf Digest Events".
We worked with Golf Digest Ireland over ten years, and with every new project we repaid that loyalty by delivering a creative quality and technical execution that exceeded expectations.
That is our commitment to customers and one which we are obsessed about. It does two things for us... removes complacency, allows us to continue to offer technical and design advantage setting new benchmarks for ourselves and our clients.
Constructing a website around the need of news publishing agency is significantly different to that of a commercial marketing website.
With a strong focus on delivering content to users in a mobile context we still had to deliver an impressive desktop layout that supported strong commercial customer assessment.
By building GOLFDIGEST.IE from the ground up we were able to engineer seamless article submission functionality for journalist and editorial staff ensuring a fast production process. We also built efficient operational functionality for editors and publication control as well as automatic image optimisation for efficient resource storage and delivery.

It took me a while to find the right web partner for us. The combination of design capability, software engineering expertise and understanding of the inbound golf tourism industry in Ireland got me interested. The decision worked out well for us, as Jer and his team delivered from the start and remain a key resource for Golf Digest to leverage with our planned online initiatives.
