what we did

Liveline designed the logo and the page templates for the site and then worked closely with Dream Band and over several years to develop new features, games, and competitions and integrate them with the main game.

We also set up and managed their successful Google Adwords campaign and also implemented ad serving programs from Accelerator Media and Adsense into the program.
