Google submission

Are you struggling to be seen by the major search engines?

Do you type in your name or your business and find you don’t even appear by page three? In most cases, the reason is brutally simple: search engines don’t yet know you exist.

Use an XML sitemap to tell search engines you exist

One of the most efficient ways to get noticed is to create a clear, well‑structured XML sitemap and place it on your site. A sitemap acts as a direct signal to search engines, telling them which pages you have, how they connect, and which ones matter most.

Submitting your sitemap is essential

But creating the sitemap is only half the job.

To ensure it’s actually read, you must physically submit it to the major search engines. This step is essential. If you skip it — or submit it incorrectly — you can make the problem worse by confusing crawlers or hiding important pages behind a poorly structured file.

From invisibility to discoverability

A correctly built and correctly submitted sitemap is often the fastest way to move from invisibility to discoverability. It tells search engines: I’m here, my content is organised, and I’m ready to be indexed.

There has always been a darker side to This Window’s music, perhaps influenced by its association with the Goth scene and being in a support band for Bauhaus.

“The Dark Ages” began as a simple track used to test the studio’s synth setup. It features a couple of modular Eurorack banks, including Moog and Doepfer modules, alongside a Panasonic SX‑KC600 keyboard/synth that had been brought out of retirement. This inexpensive keyboard has surprisingly rich organ and string sounds, which blend with the modular mayhem to create a dark, atmospheric 1980s analogue synth sound.

The track is a nostalgic look back to the old days—some of them good, and quite a few of them best forgotten.
