We have been busy!!

Sorry for the lack of updates, no excuse I know, but wow, have we been busy...

Our new training focussed service the Website Academy now has it's own dedicated site. Why not take a look around www.websiteacademy.co.uk We are running courses that range from 1/2 day SEO training, giving you the basic knowledge to improve your search engine listings, through to the Website Academy course itself - resulting in your bespoke designed website launch.

What about in the studio?

Okay, here's a few projects we have been working on:

- www.winnens.co.uk
- www.rogueelementdigital.com
- www.stacking-chairs-uk.com
- www.alliedguarding.co.uk
- www.parkinsons.co.uk

We have also been helping out our new office neighbours, www.everyclick.co.uk with the front end development of two really interesting projects, all supporting very worthy causes:

- www.giveasyoulive.co.uk
- www.everygreeting.co.uk

Some quite complex jQuery work...

With all of this going on, plus our digital marketing programs - email broadcasts, seo, ppc management and facebook advertising (very effective btw), the run from summer to the year end has been fun - ready for the holidays now though! :-)

Have a great break if I don't manage to update again before the new year, but keep an eye on our Tweets.

SEO training success!

The Gloucester Antiques Centre (GACL) needed to establish an in-house search engine optimization strategy.

Swimming Hippo Digital were selected by Business Link to deliver a two day training and workshop program to achieve this objective.

Following an initial business and website construction consultancy session, key requirements were established. GACL completed the training returning with a clear SEO strategy and report to pass over to their web developer that will improve keyword search positioning in Google.

"Thank you once again for the excellent training which Joe and I received from you. We really enjoyed our two days having learnt so much. We are genuinely excited about implementing everything you taught us."
