Marketing business

You can pay to get to the top but is this the best way forward? 

People probably click “organic search results” more often than paid ads – this could be for a number of reasons but as the end user becomes more savvy he has become more cynical about the tightening grip search engines have [read more]

Dead gannet on Woolacombe beach

I've just been for a walk on Woolacombe beach.

The beach was littered with dead gannets, all slightly decomposed. Adult birds are large and bright white with black wingtips. They are distinctively shaped with a long neck and long pointed beak. Not sure what caused this bizarre sight but it was very sad.

Yahoo + Tumblr

Tumblr has always been the wolf in sheep's clothing - making other blogging platforms take note. Since 2007 its profile has slowly grown and raised a few admiring eyebrows. The product is a good one but what will happen when the brand gets smothered with Yahoo advertising will people ditch the brand?

With a press conference due in New York's Times Square, just a couple of miles from Tumblr's headquarters, nobody expects Mayer will turn up empty-handed. According to the Wall Street Journal on Sunday evening, the Yahoo board have agreed to pay $1.1bn for Tumblr and will let it continue to operate as an independent business. 

Yahoo declined to comment before the announcement, but pointed out that it would be streamed live. That is something the company has previously only done (in audio) for its quarterly financial results. For Yahoo, capturing the white-hot blogging site could catapult it back into the top flight of contenders in a web world that has become hugely more complicated since it was set up in March 1995 – before Google and nearly a decade before Facebook.

Writer in Residence - Web content stolen from veronicahenry.co.uk

While I was writing this novel I was lucky enough to be made Writer in Residence for the Venice Simplon Orient Express, travelling in splendour from Victoria to Venice, then staying at the Hotel Cipriani on the island of Giudecca. How could I fail to be inspired? My characters came to life en route, and the story unfolded.

Writing a website in a foreign language - help is at hand.

This post was stolen from pagemonger.com, a website dedicated to creating fresh content for their clients.

Spanish websites need optimising for the UK

There are inherent problems with writing content for websites that are not written in your native tongue – how do you know what to say?

Leave a reply

If you have Spanish based business and are trying to attract UK clients contact North Devon Web and ask them to have a look at your site to see if you are getting your message across.

The language you decide to communicate your thoughts and product details in on a web based medium must be of a standard that enables the viewer to understand what you are trying to say. Human language is highly complex and is based on a set of rules where symbols, expression and sound have meaning. Business keywords are simply created by creating an infinite number of possible descriptions from a combination of different expressive elements.

The art of language and communication has been shackled

Si usted tiene negocio basado españolas y están tratando de atraer a los clientes del Reino Unido de contactos de North Devon Web y pedirles que echar un vistazo a su sitio para ver si usted está recibiendo el mensaje.El idioma que decida comunicar en la web debe ser de un nivel que permite al espectador a entender lo que está tratando de decir. El lenguaje humano es muy complejo.

Makeup of a business opportunity

A business opportunity consists of four integrated elements all of which are to be present within the same timeframe (window of opportunity) and most often within the same domain or geographical location, before it can be claimed as a business opportunity. These four elements are:

• A need
• The means to fulfill the need
• A method to apply the means to fulfill the need and;
• A method to benefit

With anyone of the elements missing, a business opportunity may be developed, by finding the missing element. The more unique the combination of the elements, the more unique the business opportunity. The more control an institution (or individual) has over the elements, the better they are positioned to exploit the opportunity and become a niche market leader.

Keywords - a thought for the day ?

This must be (seashore) keyword stuffing - or maybe a leap too far (that sells shells)  ?

She sells seashells on the seashore;
The shells that she sells are seashells I’m sure.
So if she sells seashells on the seashore,
I’m sure that the shells are seashore shells.
