making the web work for you

What we do, or try to do is simply help people to make the web work for them.

It’s important to understand that a website can serve a multitude of purposes and people and organisations that own them can be just as wide and diverse.

What we do is look at the individual, group or company and just ask ‘what do you want from the internet?’ and then thing ‘what could the internet do for you’.

Google Sidewiki - good or baaaaaab?

(This was posted 7 months, 2 weeks, 6 days, 21 hours, 1 minute's ago.)

Clearly I’m not one to moan about the wonderful Google but I have to say that I find the latest Google gadget to be a little annoying...

Google Sidewiki...

In Googles words ‘Google Sidewiki is a browser sidebar that lets you contribute and read information alongside any web page’.

I think that in reality is another way of adding a popup to my screen when I load a new website or page.

I have to think about the idea that this will at some point be used for advertising, something along the lines of associated website adds being shown based on comments or content!

Then there is people abusing the system, what if I was to go onto my #1 competitors site and comment that they are not worth a light – will that comment be shown when browsers to their site visit? Now I’m not a nasty man but what if my competitors are? Could they leave messages for my visitors to see?

At the heart of it I think the idea is a good one, my problem is thinking about how it is going to be abused by Google and other web users.

Beaumont Bookkeeping is #1

(This was posted 7 months, 2 weeks, 6 days, 21 hours, 8 minutes's ago.)

Beaumont Bookkeeping is #1 in Google in very quick time!

Beaumont Bookkeeping offer bookkeeping services in the Maldon area of Essex. The search phrase ‘Bookkeepers Maldon’ or ‘Maldon Bookkeepers’ was something that Beaumont really wanted to be found for.

The small website that we built for them (http://www.beaumont-bookkeeping.co.uk/) has now raced to the #1 position in Google for ‘Beaumont Bookkeeping’, ‘Maldon Bookkeepers’ and ‘Bookkeepers Maldon’.

For most businesses a website is essential, if for nothing else so that when somebody Google’s them they can be found – in this case the site also gets them found for something that could really help.
