Season 3: Client Centric Web Design

Client Centric Web Design will propose a different model for building websites, one where the web designer and client work in a collaborative relationship. This introduction to an alternative approach to web design results in better sites, more satisfying projects and happier clients.

The original Boagworld Podcast ran for over 200 episodes and was the first podcast on web design. Aimed at those who design, develop and run websites, it won many awards and grew rapidly from its humble beginnings in 2005. We reinvented the show in 2010 but the old episodes have been kept online and redefined as ‘classic episodes’.
