As you can see from the image shown below and by visiting the website, you will see that the homepage is completely different to our other partners websites. The emphasis of the end user typing in their desired flat or house share location has been moved further down the page and has been replaced with a map of the UK with direct links to the main flatsharing cities in the UK. This to date is a unique method of designing the homepage and one that we like.

To promote the website and improve search engine positions, the owner of Flatseeker has created a Twitter account and included serveral pages of flatsharing information on their website – this is something that we would advise all of our partners to do to increase search engine positions and visibility for potential flatseekers.

This is a particularly good time to launch such a website as UCAS, the organisation responsible for managing higher education applications, announced earlier this year that 2009 saw an increase in the number of students given places.  In addition, from here until the new academic year in September, current students are continually looking for somewhere to live in 2010 / 2011.

To improve search engine rankings, this partner has included content on topics such as how to give your bedroom a makeover on a budget, things to do in the capital for free and information on getting around London. These articles give the partner the opportunity to increase the density of the keywords which they want to rank well for.

The design of the website is unique and very different to our other partner websites. The clean design is reflective of the partners other website, Commutee.com which is aimed at connecting commuters via the power of Twitter.

The addition of Rooms.co.uk means that our tally of live white label flatshare websites is now firmly into double figures, which is quite impressive since the system has only been available since mid-September and we have many more to come still.

After the success of their initial whitel label flatshare website, Weekday Flatshare, this partner has decided to create a general flat and house share website as opposed to targeting a specific nieche market.

ShareBuddy.co.uk has chosen to utilise social networking websites to help promote the website and communicate with its customers. They can be followed on Twitter and you can become a fan on Facebook.

We have spent the last week or so working very closely with the Accommodation.com team on the Flatshares.co.uk site, and they have produced a website which really shows what can be achieved using our Advanced CSS editors and API functions.

The site goes further than just changing a few colours and really gets to the heart of the layout to try and enhance the users experience.

We are delighted Flatshares .co.uk is now live and look forward to tracking its growth over the coming months, we are also looking forward to working with the team again on their other domain names which include houseshares.co.uk.

Weekdayflatsahre is a niche website which is set to target the commuter market by offering Weekday Flatsharing opportunities to commuters who are tired of the long train journey.

With the increasing cost of running a car, and the soaring price (and punctuality) of rail travel many people choose to live away from home during the working week.  More and more professionals are opting to house or flat share instead of making the long commute.

A weekday flat or house share can, in the long run, work out cheaper than commuting or renting a hotel room. Plus you can return somewhere at end of a day at work which is homely, comfortable and has your own personalised items.

The team behind the Gay Britain Network have created www.gayflatshare.net, the first gay friendly flatshare website created using the WhiteLabelFlatshare.co.uk system.

The gay flatshare web site will be promoted along side Gay Britain Networks other gay websites.

Flatstoshare.com are the very first partner to create a  London flatshare site using our niche creator.

London.flatstoshare.com was launched this afternoon and is a great example of what can be achieved with the system.

Its going to be very interesting to see the finished sites as they cover different niches, locations and all have very individual designs.

Thanks for the support.
