Pixel8 complies with the requirements of iGov.ph with all its related projects

Government websites are the least websites we’d want to go. We visit government websites only if we need to, why? There could be few deep-rooted reasons we want to do as little as possible with the government and we can’t really resolve it all here. One reason why most us would just bother to go to physical offices, fall in line for hours and just take our business there, we don’t trust the online system of our government services. It could either be poorly designed, unresponsive or just not made comprehensively.

Pixel8 Web Solutions and Consultancy is revolutionizing the government website game by carefully planning the outcome. We’ve worked with a few challenging projects from the government and it’s never easy. But that’s our job - make difficult things easy for the user.

Did you know that there are very specific rules in creating a website for a government-funded institutions? Yes, and there’s a 16 page PDF file of it.

Description and Interface Requirements

1. Vertical Measurements
Government websites should be designed using a responsive framework with a standard width of 1190px on regular screens that scales down gracefully on smaller devices of 320px in width. This would allow the website visitor to access the website content on multiple types of devices. Website layout should be based on a twelve column grid layout that scales down to a one layout on the smallest of

mobile devices.

2. Homepage Section
A government homepage is broken down to seven (7) major sections. These are the top bar, masthead, auxiliary menu (optional), banner, content area, agency footer and standard footer.
- inner page : with 6 sections (top bar, masthead, auxiliary menu, content area, agency footer, standard footer)

3. Content Area Placeholders
The content area may only be divided into four, three, two and one column(s).

We have completed a project to develop Pilar Sorsogon Local Government website and it’s one of the projects we could easily be proud of. We get the pleasure of completing a website that could help deliver better service to public, make information sharing easier, and migrating transactions online, cutting off unnecessary trips to physical offices.
