CHOOSING A FULL SERVICE DIGITAL AGENCY

Paul Carpenter 30th October 2008

Like any field that has a technical aspect to it, website companies often get broken down into nerdy specialisms. So some companies will concentrate on fancy visual design, others on ecommerce and “technical stuff” and others still on online marketing.

Increasingly, companies are realising that this can lead to complications. The designers will design something, but the developers will say that aspects of the design will have to be compromised for technical reasons. And then maybe the guys running the online advertising will say that they’ve got loads of people to the site but it that the pricing or the positioning is wrong.

All this inter-agency bickering costs you time and money. With no-one able to take a holistic view of the whole setup, delays are created at every point of the creative and technical process. Projects cost more and realise less as a result. And instead of running your website, you find yourself trying to mediate a willy-waving war between agencies following different thought-processes and agendas.

That’s why we’re proud to be in the vanguard of full service web agencies. We can offer you or your clients a total, end-to-end, fully integrated service. From initial creative, to development and management all the way through to traffic and lead generation. We do it all in-house, using our own expertise.

Do we always see eye-to-eye with each other in here? Not a chance. We’ve got passionate designers, amazing developers and forward-thinking marketers. We butt heads. We fight. But never for the sake of our own egos.

Drop in today for a chat and a coffee and see why going full service could be the answer to all those web project nightmares.

    How to Reindex Your Website Quickly in a Search Engine
    "Hi Cyndi You're going to find the same thing that a lot of people find when chasing rankings. Firstly, the hand-crafted jewellery market is very competitive because a lot of people are using the internet as their primary route to market - compared to selling at markets and craft fairs there's a potentially massive audience. That gives Google a big headache, because there are a million sites out there competing for its attention. Secondly, much of what determines their rankings comes from the history of the domain. If you've been going a long time, it says to Google that the business is well-established and therefore probably has a decent offering. Any brand new domain is going to struggle to get anywhere near the top of the rankings in the short term unfortunately. It's encouraging that Google is at least spidering and indexing your site, but you will have to do a *lot* of work in terms of content and link building to see returns in terms of rankings."

    "I love reading al the information you have published for SEO. but....I have a question. I just started a handcrafted jewelry site www.cynfullyunique.com How do I know if it's being indexed. It appears, when I check my pages visited and people visisted that google bot has a lot of viists. I try to up-date it with new jewelry every two days. And is it good and what does it mean that google is visiting my pages often. My site is relatively new....2 months and I really need to get it ranked so I can sell some of my jewelry, etc."
