Web Design Updates

We've been working on lots of small and bigger projects in the last few weeks. A couple of Actinic sites still under development and the odd amendment here and there.

A few bits of work we have undertaken recently includes:
We were looking forward to a relaxing break between Christmas and New Year - but of course we'll be updating the VAT on our ecommerce web sites!

Silver Editions

Silver Editions
We've been undertaking some Search Engine Optimisation consultancy on behalf of a new client called Silver Editions in Chalfont St Peter since September. They have the Erol Ecommerce package and a well established web site.

Their web site ranking is already good and just requires some fine tuning to push it further up the rankings by being clearer to Google what it is they are trying to tell it.

Although it is always dificult to tell how successful we have been over such a short period, we were able to boost the traffic over the last two months quite substantially and are looking forward to the longer term possibilities.

We have so far looked at the photo frames, Silver Cufflinks and a few other sections.

Neal Collins

We have been very busy on a number of web sites recently, both ongoing work for existing clients and also this new web site for Neal Collins.
Neal is a respected sports journalist writing for London Lite and the Evening Standard. He also appears on a number of sports news tv and radio shows.

This web site was a very interesting project as Neal generates a huge amount of unique content and often right on the edge of breaking news. This is precisely the type of site that should interest Google for example (as well as his readers) as Google loves unique fresh content.

The design of the site has a number of interesting features including:

  • A flash header which we do not normally undertake as they cannot be optimised
  • Integrating a twitter feed
  • Integrating the blogger blog
  • Putting the rss / xml blogger feed through feedburner to monitor stats
  • Google Adsense to generate advertising sponsorship money

Neal will soon be publishing his first fiction book 'A Game Apart' based around the forthcoming South Africa World Cup. His next reporting duties though will be following the cricket tour to South Africa.

Well worth a read if you are interested in sport.
