About the FORNI project

A swedish influencer wanted a new layout of her blog and a magazine website to fill with lifestyle articles. The magazine website has another domain at forni.se.

These sites are created in Wordpress with a custom made theme and some extra plug-ins (for example they wanted a podcast feature that we created).

Fun fact: I was mentioned once in the blog here.

Fashionboard (mock-up)

I had a plan for making a C2C website for used clothes. Where users could sell re-used clothes on. The site was never launched due other priorited projects. But here is a design mock-up for it.

for.me blog portal

for.me

Creation of a CMS system for blogging. Around 30-40 000 swedish blogs. Active around 2011-2017. Highest traffic around 1 000 000 users monthly.

Recently I changed the website a bit and started to offer free Wordpress sites.

Active years: 2012-2018

Blog portal

Forme.se started as a online fashion magazine. We had 2 half-time journalists and a couple of student journalists writing articles about fashion.

We also started with a few bloggers (3 from start). After a while we expanded with some more blogs. Then people started to emailing us every day to start new blogs. When this number exceed out of hands we opened the register form for everyone. Then the blogs took over and dominated the views and activity. We paused the magazine and continued as a blog portal.

From 2012-2015 people started over 30 000 blogs. Blogging was very popular in Sweden during this period.

The images are from Wayback Machine (archive.org) so in some images there it looks a bit off.

Some blog template mockups

These mockups were never released. Instead I started to consult for the E-commerce NELLY (nelly.com).

Stylewish Fashion app

I built a iPhone app for fashionistas.

It was a app that uploaded outfits images of the top 500 fashion bloggers. And the app had ML (machine learning) to see what product the influencer wear and listed the links to the products. So the users could find products easy that they like and scroll endlessly between outfits.

I did not fly though.. Maximum 500 active daily users. But fun developing =)

Jesper.nu

jesper.nu

My first website. Developed in PHP/HTML/CSS. Highest traffic around 1 000 000 users monthly. Unique users in one day: 130 000 (this was before mobile traffic). Today it is around 10 000 monthly.

Normally in traffic swedish traffic measurements you measure unqiue visitors (web browsers) in a week. For over 10 years jesper.nu has between 200-300 000 unique vistors weekly (3% of the swedish population).
