With more and more Internet usage becoming mobile, website owners now, more than ever, must consider “mobilizing” their sites for easy cell phone, tablet or mobile device access. The norm for mobile website production was originally to create a completely separate template and URL for accessing a website on a mobile device but this process took time, money and had common glitches and lag. Responsive Web Design is making this formerly complicated…

Thing are Improving in Home Improvement
We recently took several laps around the Indiana State Fair Grounds buildings visiting with some new clients and gauging the optimism of the entrepreneurs in the home improvement industry. Things seem decidedly brighter this year and we have picked-up several clients recently that work in residential remodeling and refinishing. It makes some logical sense. American’s seem to be stepping-up and spending more on home improvements for the first time since 2006 –…
First Screen. Second Screen. Third Screen. I went to a seminar about a year ago where a marketing/technology expert referred to the smart phone as a consumer’s “third screen” through which they receive news, entertainment and stay connected. The event was sponsored by a TV station – so, of course, Television was the first screen; the computer screen, the second – and, the smart phone was the emerging third. Being of an…

However, they started to lose me in the Peter Cetera days when they cranked out sappy-chick-hits with high note hooks like Hard for me to Say “I’m Sorry.” That song has been hooked in my head this week here at the office. It IS hard…

Today not only do you need to know the work history of your web developer (since most are independent contractors working for themselves) but now you need to check and see if they have a criminal background. Recently a web…
Will your site code be ready for Google TV?
Ok this goes out to all the proprietary developers on the web! Google tv is on its way and a quick question – do you have a developer working full time to make your “in-the-box” platform ready for Google TV? We all know that WordPress, Drupal and Joomala have thousands if not millions of developers keeping the technology up to the latest standards and features. My gut tells me that this will…
If you are not comparing your PPC development to your organic results than you are wasting money! After a week of new client interviews this week, I was once again reminded of how many companies call “PPC” – “SEO”. I was also shocked at how many companies are running a strong PPC campaign but the organic results have not developed over the life of the campaign. When you engage an Internet marketing…
