Why should I pay for SEO when I could do it myself?
Why should I pay for Professional Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) when surely I could do it myself? We answer a few common questions and help save you time.

Keywords Are Key
Choosing the right keywords at the start of a SEO campaign can make a huge difference. Let us briefly tell you why...

Which web browsers should my website be compatible with?
There are so many different web browsers out there at the moment. Which ones does my site need to work with, and which ones can I safely ignore? Let us answer a few questions for you.

A website is a website, right?
We tell you why it pays to get your website designed by experts.

Writing? Boring?
Copywriting tips and tricks. Simple, but highly effective. Need to write good copy for your website or promotional material. Sometimes it can be hard, but focusing on subjects that you are passionate about is a great starting point.

Why link build, and what types of links are out there?
Link Building is without a doubt one of the most important factors when optimising any website and is a subject I can talk for hours on end.

Four Easy Ways To Get More Pages Indexed By Google
This isn’t going to be one of my usual long and boring posts with lots of technical mumbo jumbo instead I’m going to keep it really short as there isn’t really a lot to say on the subject but is a question that seems to keep cropping up.

Keyword Effective Index (KEI) Explained
I’ve been looking into this a great deal since starting out in SEO, and a lot of the reports, articles and blog posts that are out there give some really good scientific answers as to what it is, but they don’t really give the beginner an easy answer.

How to get listed on DMOZ quickly
Many people have searched for the answer, myself being one of them. After countless hours of researching, I’m sorry to say that there is no real answer which guarantees quick inclusion (unless you’re willing to use unethical methods that is)

Why Embracing the Internet is Essential for all Businesses
Does our company really need a web presence? And do we need search engine optimisation too?

Increasing Your Conversion Rate
There is certainly a lot of buzz around at the minute regarding conversion rate optimisation and it's benefits. The outlining principle of this is basically to convert more of the traffic you are already receiving to your website. This is absolutely a must for any website owner as there is no point in increasing your web traffic if your conversion rate is poor. Yes you will get more orders or sales than before because of the increased traffic but you would have had to work a lot harder for these sales.

What is SEO, and How Can It Benefit Your Website?
As an experienced SEO practitioner I go to meetings on a regular basis during which I am required to explain precisely what search engine optimisation is and how it can benefit this particular client. Having to attend meetings can be time consuming and this is time that could be spent working on other projects. However this is part and parcel of my business and unless I can explain fully what SEO is and its benefits I couldn’t possibly get any new business.

Are You Putting Enough Emphasis On Your Website Content?
Search Engine Optimisation is a science which is perpetually in flux. With each new day come fresh announcements which claim to revolutionise not just the industry but also the internet at large. Alongside these announcements are an almost limitless stream of blogs and articles written by self-labelled ‘SEO Experts’ which purport to provide guidance as to the definitive strategy to put your website at the top of search results. Opinions differ greatly as to the importance of various on-page factors, the worth of links from directories and all manner of other factors, whether minor or major.

How to Write a Viral Article
Online marketing is a rapidly changing landscape. One of the few main-stays in spite of the perpetually evolving Google algorithm is article marketing and its associated disciplines. Although there are many vastly differing schools of thought with regard to the most effective means of generating online visibility and success through the publication of original content via blogs and articles, the foundation principles are always the same.

Can Google Detect Paid Links?
There has always been a lot of debate in the SEO world surrounding this subject so I thought I would throw my spin on it. I believe Google can detect paid links to a degree but not in all cases.

How to Build Links with Purpose
You will read a lot on the internet that content is king. I couldn’t agree more as without great content you can forget about getting any links. This simple guide will help you get better at obtaining those all important links.

How Google Might Identify Duplicate Content
We have all wondered just how Google decides which piece of content is the original source over the duplicate. It is extremly frustrating when you notice somebody ranking with content that you have produced instead of your own page. So how does Google decide which is the duplicate content?

How to Improve E-Commerce Conversion Rate

Using Facebook for Advertising
Your current Facebook adverts, pages & groups probably aren't that bad, it’s just that they could be better. When spending money on Facebook advertising, you must monitor your ad spend closely, as the expense can skyrocket and suddenly kill your campaign’s effectiveness. Too many Facebook advertisers are making beginner mistakes that end up making Facebook rich and the marketer broke. Stop making those mistakes!
