Time and Progress

05 July 2011 Categories: General

Hi all,

I cant believe how fast the last 6 months have flown by. I have simply not had the time to keep the blog up to date but I thought I would pop by and let you know of the bits and bobs I have achieved over the last few months.

In the past, we (boxChilli – Web Design Hampshire) used pass our search engine marketing work out to third parties. This went ok for some time until about 6 months down the line, when we were notified that very little progress had been made with regards to positive movements of our clients websites on the search engine rankings. It was at this point that we realised that many of the techniques that we utilised on a day to day basis were in-fact very effective SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) tools. We then expanded upon this basis through researching into how SEO was changing in today’s online environment.

The next step was to find a specialist who could strengthen the Click brand. This person came in the form of an SEO specialist with over 10 years experience. He is an industry leader and has worked successfully at a couple of large online businesses.

I then created the site. To do this we decided to use a static site (html) and then use a bolted on WordPress blog. Myself and Jonathan shared in the content writing.

At this point, we were ready to launch. Here is the site:

Firebug, the life-saver!

Firebug, the life-saver!

About a year ago I was introduced to an amazing piece of software called firebug. It allows the user to monitor a websites CSS, HTML, DOM, Javascript and other tools. Infact, not only does Firebug do all this, which is a fantastic way to debug a page, it also enables the user to test solutions live within a browser and then get rid of them by refreshing the page.

Among the many features firebug possesses, one of the best is the ‘Net’ tab. It analyses the requests a site makes and works out the ones which take the most time to load. This can help you to speed up your site, which is especially useful when you consider your site may be penalised by the search engines if it takes too long to load.

Overall the Firebug tool is essential (imho) for any web designer.
