16 November - What's my favourite agency site? It's a toss-up between Mischief (mischiefpr.com/home) and Frank (frankpr.it). It's definitely a wow moment when you visit for the first time. Other notable agency sites include Bray Leino (brayleino.co.uk), Cow (thisiscow.com), Diffusion (diffusionpr.com) and Freud (freud.com). An agency's website should be attention-grabbing and push the envelope.
