Building Holly's online home: A guide to creating an engaging campaign website

Updated: Feb 3


A compelling online presence is crucial for any digital marketing campaign. The first step is often a dedicated website or landing page that acts as the online home for your campaign. This was the case for Holly, the Christmas Octopus, whose vibrant and interactive website became her virtual home.


The story of Holly’s landing page

Building Holly's online home required planning, creative design, and strategic development. Our team wanted to create a platform that not only told Holly's story but also engaged users and encouraged them to participate in the campaign. After several brainstorming sessions, we decided on a design that represented Holly's character - fun, festive, and friendly.



Key features

Holly's page was designed to be fun and interactive. We incorporated elements such as a pop-up page introducing Holly's backstory, a countdown timer to Christmas, and a map showing Holly's location on the Bay of Lights Illumination Trail.
