We can help with Social Media strategies

If you think Facebook, Twitter and YouTube exist solely for kids to mess about on with their mates, you’d be right. And wrong. Sure, there are billions of casual social media users. But that’s the hidden value because there are also hundreds of thousands of brands engaging with this audience in meaningful dialogue.

And it’s not just for kids. Recent demographics show that on Facebook, the 35+ demographic now represents more than 30% of the entire user base and the 55+ audience grew a whopping 922.7% in 2009.

So you know that you need to be using social media but don’t know where to start, what to use, how to link it all together and how to integrate it into daily life and routine? Here’s our starter for ten, (Actually, it’s a starter for free.)

Consistency is key. If you want to blog, set yourself a timetable.  If you set out to blog once a week, blog once a week.  If you set out to blog once a day, blog once a day.  Don’t set yourself unrealistic goals, especially if you are very busy in your daily business life.

There are so many social media platforms and networks that the choice can be confusing. Knowing which ones to use for your business and how to use them successfully is key.

As is finding appropriate ways to connect with the right people in a meaningful, relevant and engaging way.

We can help with User Designed Websites

As User Experience designers we specialise in creating websites with visual flair that are user-friendly and built according to best practice web standards.

Our creative approach is based on delivering to consistently simple and beautiful sites that work.

Every website we build is fully content managed, allowing you to update with ease.  With Google’s new algorithm focus on freshly served content this is a key consideration.

We can help with Search Engine Optimisation

There is no point in having a beautifully designed website if no one can find it.  We conduct in depth research into the most appropriate keywords that are going to result in high hits for your site. We then write and build your site around this and undertake regular monitoring of its performance, constantly tweaking and altering to drive higher hit rates.

We can help with Video Production

With YouTube now taking second spot for search after Google, video has proved to be an extremely effective and powerful way to communicate both your brand and your message. It’s currently one of the best ways to differentiate sites and make them sticky.

Our video team can produce custom video or animation but instead of waffling on about it, have a look at some of the films we have created here.  And don’t worry, You don’t need deep pockets to get us to do this for you.

We can help with Mobile Apps
