Vinota Official Website Redesign

Project Overview

The Vinota website was redesigned by Isura Wickramarachchi in 2011, modernising a platform that he had originally designed in 2006 for a UK-based Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telecommunications provider.

The redesigned website was created to strengthen the company's online presence by introducing a fresh visual identity while continuing to promote affordable international calling services. The website highlighted Vinota's competitive call rates, mobile communication solutions, customer registration, and online account services, providing both new and existing customers with an informative and user-friendly experience.
