Guests at the Internet Marketing Course

The internet marketing course went well again yesterday, with the usual interesting selection of businesses coming through to understand how to do better on the web. There were a coupld of good local designers there, so I had to be carefull what I said about the effect of too many images and Flash on the Search engine optimisation of a web site! A lynching by designers at the morning coffee break was narrowly avoided.
 

Shadow Minister to meet Cornish Internet Entrepreneurs

An Exciting development for our Internet Marketing Course this Thursday March 12th, is that the Shadow Minster for Cornwall Rt Hon Mark Prisk MP is going to use it as an opportunity to meet Cornish business people, as part of his brief to be the voice for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
 

Rather humbled - so unlike me!

Well I'm back from a long and rather exhausting day presenting an Internet Marketing Course to a fantastic bunch of Cornish businesses people; a course promoted by DPN the Digital Peninsula Network.

The array of people and businesses was staggering, with hotels, eCommerce sites, event producers, a hotel for special needs folks, a great designer friend of ours, architects, tourism operators, artists - heck I could go on.
 

Would you like some SEO with that?

Its one of the most common questions for an SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) business, and it goes something like "our budget is pretty tight, could we just do a little bit please?"

While its always tempting to think that you might make some progress in a little time, and possibly tempting for some SEOs to take all those "little bits" and make a living from it, the reality is that good SEO is a campaign, not a task.
 

Web 2.0 doesn't work!

OK OK I'm sorry, before a thousand shrieking twitters tell me "You just don't get it do you" (in a manner oddly reminiscent of a flock of starlings). I'll introduce the caveat: "Web 2.0 does work for some things, but it is quite over-hyped at the moment!"

Is that better?
 

Twitter all a jitter

Many of the more "hip" web types who have got bored with Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, Linkedin or eCademy are now raving about Twitter, as the latest funkiest thing for a nerdy type to be involved in.

And we do - I exchange pleasantries regularly with other Twits, usually the same people with whom I exchange similar pleasantries via most of the other online networking, um networks.
