Firstly, welcome all of you to our new website, we’ve been working hard on it and we hope to give you a better picture of what we’re all about.

Derrick and I took the decision to use a Wordpress based blog as the core of our website for many reasons:

• We felt it was important to show our clients the skills we possess in working with bloggers and social media - and what better way to be do this than to use Wordpress.
• It allows us to easily takes beautiful designs (courtesy of Derrick) and allows you to turn them into CSS and HTML that passes W3C validation without a hitch.
• Derrick and I are extremely keen on not only the quality of our own work but also raising the bar across the industry and showcasing brilliance from all of the excellent companies that we work with to achieve some superb campaigns and sites for our clients.
• We want to be transparent, so we’ll be blogging reguarly in text and with video to demonstrate some of our core skills in design, SEO and online marketing.

There’s already a wealth of search and SEO content on the site which has come from the old Surrch blog, those domains now redirect here as we’re bringing all of our skills into this one site.

Let me know if you run into any problems - but I hope you enjoy our content and find browsing around the site to be a great user experience.

I’ve uploaded my new book to the interwebs so you can now download and read through it, if the fancy takes you, completely free of charge (SEO Truth - A Bible For The Next Generation Of Search Engine Optimisation).

There may be a few blank pages because it’s been laid out for print; you can get yourself one of these hard copies from this website here.

Let me know what you think and submit some feedback over on lulu by all means! Cheers.

Edit: The download link works correctly now, oops.
