One of my clients recently moved premises and asked me to update their address details in various Internet directories. He had quite a good search engine ranking, so I wanted to run a few tests before I made the change. One test was to see what Google Local does when an address is updated.

At Shore Dutton, we strive to exceed the expectations of every single one of our clients. Our number one focus is customer satisfaction and we believe that every interaction, whether it be a meeting, telephone call or email is an opportunity for us to strengthen our business relationships.

When we describe the features of the websites we create, we often use the word "accessibility".  Sometimes we reel it off the tongue a little too easily forgetting that people outside the website design industry probably haven't got a clue what we're talking about!

In this blog post, I will try to explain what accessible web design means.

We've recently updated our website to include an article describing the process we follow when designing a website for our clients.

I occasionally get asked why I am a Nuneaton-based web designer with an 0121 (Birmingham) telephone number, rather than an 024 (Coventry/Nuneaton) number. Well, here's why....

The nature of my business allows me to work pretty much wherever I want. All I need is my laptop, an Internet connection, a pad of paper and a few documents and I can design websites anywhere. This basically means if the kids are making a racket at home I can easily move my office to somewhere else - which has proved very useful at times :)

In the first part of my article about getting better search engine rankings for small businesses, I discussed how to write great content for your website's visitors (and search engine spiders). In the second part, I will explain the concept of backlinking and describe a few methods of getting quality backlinks to your website.

Getting listed near the top of a SERP can often mean the difference between a successful small business website and a not-so-successful one. Whereas the aim of your website is to promote and sell your product, it is your search engine rankings that determine how many people actually get to see what you have to offer. You may have the best deals on products and services in your sector, but if no-one can find you it all counts for nothing.
