Lianne La Havas free download widget

https://www.liannelahavas.com/free-download/liveep.htm

Along with the launch of Lianne La Havas’ EP and a redesigned website, we had an amazing set of live songs to give away as a sign-up incentive. ‘Live in LA’ is a four track recording of a gig that Lianne La Havas recently put on in the states. The songs sound incredible and make a brilliant sign-up incentive.

Kate Brighouse designed the widget and I assembled the swf to embed on the website and spread around blogs and social networks. I created an html fallback option for mobile phones and devices that can’t use flash. This time I extended the functionality to include jQuery form validation and submission running in the background so that the user never leaves the page.

As usual the widget is configured for enhanced sharing on social networks. Sharing the widget on Facebook will embed it into the news feed, allowing people to sign-up without leaving their Facebook home page. It is also set-up for easy sharing on Twitter and the embed code is easily obtained for bloggers to embed it on their own sites.

To give the free download maximum exposure on her networks I also created a Facebook application to include the widget on a tab.

To deliver the free download we needed a new html email template, so Kate Brighouse designed a new template to match the widget. Alex Burfurd then set it up to deliver the free download once you sign up. The widget proved to be hugely popular, instantly lifting Lianne’s fanbase and quickly spreading across all the blogs that are in the know.
