Web Design & Development
The Hood set out to become the ultimate app for the maritime industry — a social network and ATS workforce-management platform for seafarers, communities and businesses. Ruler built the website that tells that story: a bold, dark, motion-led marketing site designed to make a complex, dual-audience product feel simple and to convert visitors into app downloads.
We designed and developed a custom WordPress build that puts the product front and centre — device mockups of the seafarer app and the business portal, a “for Seafarers / for Businesses” toggle, and clear feature narratives (digital profile and document wallet, automatic CV generator, secure sharing with licensed recruiters, job portals and applicant tracking). Testimonials, live stats and partner logos build trust, while prominent App Store and Google Play calls-to-action carry the conversion.
The result is a fast, responsive, SEO-ready site that matches the app’s brand and gives The Hood a launchpad to attract, retain and grow the maritime talent of the future.
