We aim to build long term business relationships with our clients and we are never happier when existing website and SEO clients ask us our opinion or advice about their websites and the promotion of their websites. The reason we get asked is that we become a trusted and valuable business associate having contributed in a big way to their business by giving them a website, re-designing and updating their existing site or promoting (via search engine optimisation SEO or search engine marketing SEM) their site.
A good example of that business relationship is shown below in iterations of a company website (An Essex Electrician company) that was actually one of our first ever clients and one that has stayed with us and had a website re-design, SEO program, logo design and a PPC campaign.
The result of the work we have performed on the site is shown by version 3 of the site below (launched 31st May 2010) that shows a site that dedicates one page to all the main services, is user friendly and search engine friendly in design.
Version 1 Pre 2006
We took over the website from another company

Version 3 2010 onwards
Result of full redesign / update and content (webcopy) update that was recommended after the SEO program

So you have now got a website but it doesn’t bring in as much business as you imagined? Some website business sectors are harder to break into and some are harder to convert site visitors to clients but in general you can give your website a ‘leg-up’ on the competition by performing a few simple things. Its no good having a brilliant looking website if nobody visits the site and people cant even find it using search engines, its like having a great shop but its not on the high street and not in any shopping guides. Your website needs to stand out to potential customers. Over 82% of people use one or more search engines (Google, Bing or Yahoo) to find what they are looking for. Your site will need to rank higher for meaningful and competitive search terms than your competitors, otherwise they will steal the business from under your nose, talk to us about how we can improve your chances of having a website that works, read our seo package guide
