I was having a chat with someone today and the topic of ‘how should I write for the web?’ came up so I thought I’d just make what I talked about into a quick blog… On Page SEO Elements Together, the following elements are known as ‘onpage’ seo – and, if your website is ‘static [...]

11 May 2010

I’ve made a decision today to spread the love a bit by making commenters links on my site ‘dofollow‘ rather than ‘nofollow‘. Well, basically it’s my way of saying thanks to people who take the time to post comments on my blog by passing on some ‘link juice‘ which will help thhem get a little [...]

A perfect moment

23 March 2010

Yesterday evening I was told at the end of presenting a proposal that we’d won the project for a European product launch. There had been a few late nights ‘Sat by the Mac’ pulling ‘stuff’ together – oh, and that is me on the left – so it was great feeling to get the immediate [...]

12 February 2010

What an interesting week it has been. To say it has been busy would be an understatement… But that’s not just from my perspective.

I tweet therefore I am

8 February 2010

You and I have opinions. We have favourite foods (mine’s Thai by the way), books , films and personalities. We like to play sports – when we can. We love the Sci-Fi channel but don’t understand why Eastenders is so popular (subjective opinion so might see a mass exodus of twitter followers ) We like [...]

Ubiquity, value and change

7 February 2010

You build a community, you create and share great content and identify things that are ‘ahead of the curve’. So how do you inspire others to do your storytelling for you?
