DesignByML were commissioned to create a website for Martin Rogan. The website was to offer a connection between Martin and his fans; allowing fans to view his daily routine, his video diary and most importantly – his fights.

The website was to include integration with YouTube, Facebook and Twitter, where Martin already had a substantial following.

The site is build around the WordPress CMS, which allows easy editing on-the-go, with the ability to update the site from various mobile devices inside a web browser, or even an app. This helps with Martin’s hectic schedule, giving him the opportunity to update while he’s on the move.

DesignByML have also been commissioned to produce Martin’s video log. The video log will give fans an insight into the daily routine of the professional boxer, letting them see the process leading up to a major fight.
