business directory for Rugby, Warwickshire

bigPlug.biz is an interactive website for the people of Rugby, Warwickshire. It features news, reviews, events, business listings, charity listings, business articles as well as local articles about Rugby. Built on joomla, the design uses clean colours and the site can be navigated from menus with other links from articles and blogs.

bigPlug makes use of Social Media, with integrated tabs on featured listings to Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, Images and also Maps. Member services integrate with facebook to allow users to sign up using their facebook Id.

 Some of the services incorporated into the bigPlug.biz site are listed here:

• Twitter. We regularly provide followers with business updates via Twitter. We also provide twitter integration with the website meaning customers can include real time twitter updates on their page.
• Facebook. The bigPlug site allows a facebook user to use their facebook credentials to interact with the site. There is no need to re-register on the site as we interact with facebook to obtain the users credentials.
• Listings. All listings include options where the user can share listing details via facebook, twitter, digg as well as over 100 other social network options.
• Reviews and interaction. All articles and business listings allow users to interact with the page, to allow users to comment on reviews and articles. All reviews are moderated (though for decency purposes!).
• But that's not all. We also include articles on bigPlug for both local people and local businesses. We also work and promote local charities.
• Events. There is a database of local events, which interacts with Google Maps to display locations.
