This week saw the launch of the new Geographers A-Z Maps website, developed by Majestic Interactive.

A-Z Maps are one of the largest independent map publishing companies in the UK and have become one of the UK’s most recognisable brands since first producing maps in 1936. Majestic have provided managed hosting services to A-Z since 2003 and were a natural choice when the decision was made to re-launch the company website.
