			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/seo-image.png" rel="wp-prettyPhoto[4534]"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5100" title="seo optimised web site design" src="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/seo-image.png" alt="seo optimised web site design" width="140" height="142" /></a></p>
<p>Having a business web site in today&#8217;s world is paramount but just having any old web site put up on the internet is a receipe for instant failure when it comes to attracting new customers for your products or services.</p>
<p>Does your current web site meet with today&#8217;s requirements by consumers? In an ever changing world, your customers will be looking for information and they want it <strong>quick</strong>.</p>
<h2>What a Business Web Site Should have</h2>
<p>Having your details on your <strong>business web site</strong> home page is a <strong>MUST </strong>but you&#8217;ll be surprised by the number of web sites we see that do not have the basic information:-</p>
<ul>
<li>Business contact telephone number in an easy to find area</li>
<li>Call to action/contact form for customers to get hold of you via email</li>
<li>Your business address and location map</li>
<li>Business Opening Hours</li>
<li>Easy navigation menu to view your products and services</li>
</ul>
<p>Ideally, your business web site should have your corporate identity logo prominently displayed in the header of your site. If you current don&#8217;t have a logo then its a great idea to start with this process and logo design is readily available on the internet. We can point you in the right direction if required.</p>
<p>You will also need to know how many pages your business web site will require. Will you need a new page for each individual product or service that you sell?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/icon_questionmark.gif" rel="wp-prettyPhoto[4534]"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5111" title="How will customers find your business website" src="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/icon_questionmark.gif" alt="How will customers find your business website" width="290" height="288" /></a></p>
<p>How will customers find these products/services?</p>
<p>What keywords will you want to target to get traffic to your web site?</p>
<p>Once you have thought about all the content required to go on your business web site, the easiest way to start with is to lay this template out on paper first, creating a mock-up up what your site will look like.</p>
<p>When you are satisfied that the web site layout is as required the next step is to either create your own web site or have a design company like <a href="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk"><strong>Somerset Web Consultancy</strong></a> create a themed web site for your business.</p>
<p>Either way, we would advise to use a content management system like WordPress so that once the web site is complete it&#8217;s a simple matter of adding new content as and when required. If you can use Microsoft Word or similar, then you&#8217;ll soon adapt to using WordPress.</p>
<p>Your business web site theme can be a simple 4-6 page site or be indepth with 100&#8242;s of pages to include all your products and services you provide to customers.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/web-map.png" rel="wp-prettyPhoto[4534]"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5115" title="website template mock up" src="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/web-map-300x234.png" alt="planning your business web site template" width="300" height="234" /></a></p>
<p>There&#8217;s nothing stopping you adding additional pages as and when required, nothing is set in stone. Got a new product range in &#8211; no problem, create a new menu and add your products.</p>
<h3>Promoting Your Business Web Site</h3>
<p>Now that you have a web site, you&#8217;ll need to start marketing your brand new business web site wherever possible. Add your web site address to all your stationery &#8211; letterheads, business cards, brochures, advertising and even outside on your business signage to get as much exposure as possible.</p>
<p>Every business should make sure that they have a Google Places Listing. It is a <strong>FREE</strong> listing from Google that enables you to have more business exposure on the world wide web. However, just claiming your listing isn&#8217;t much use. You <strong>MUST </strong>optimise your Google Places Listing to maximise the chances of a top spot on the first page of Google within the Listing section. As &#8216;local search&#8217; is becoming more predominant in the search engines, Google places huge emphasis on these listings and on most occasions these listings appear before any organic search results.</p>
<p>Somerset Web Consultancy specialise in optimising Google Places Listings and provide this service. We will only work with <strong>ONE </strong>business category in any one town/city, so for example, if you&#8217;re a car dealer in Salisbury, we would not do any other Google Places Listing optimisation for other car dealers within the Salisbury area.</p>
<p>If you have a web site, its now imperative that an optimised Google Places Listing works alongside your business web site to maximise the visibility of your products and services within your local area and gain new customers resulting in greater profit margins.</p>

<h3>The Woodpecker Pub Newbury</h3>
<p>Karen &amp; Ian Batho took over the running of The <strong>Woodpecker Pub</strong> in Newbury Berkshire in 2010 and have made some rdical changes to the establishment.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk">Somerset Web Consultancy</a> were referred to the pub and we duly took on the role to give the pub a stunning webiste that would incorporate their food menu along with having an event page for all the Sky sports that the pub shows each month, along with any other entertainment.</p>
<p>Designed in WordPress, The new Woodpecker Pub web site has a menu facility that can be easily changed within the back end dashboard should Karen &amp; Ian wish to. At the current time, we are FULLY managing the web site for them due to time constraints but we have given The Woodpeck Pub a number of training videos should they wish to manage their own site in the future.</p>
<p>The Woodpecker Pub also has an optimised Google Places Listing and we&#8217;re hoping that this will soon start to show results as this is a very competitive market and needs constant attention. Unfortunately, Google Places Listings are not a &#8216;set and forget&#8217; option anymore and Somerset Web Consultancy offer a Google Places Listing service that includes monthly updates. Contact us for more information should your business require an optimised Listings page.</p>
<p>The <strong>Woodpecker Pub</strong> website now shows on Page 1 of Google for certain keywords and this should bring additional traffic to their website.</p>

<h3>Wash Water Service Station</h3>
<p>Adrian Harris &amp; Simon Woolford both left the local Newbury VW dealership to set up their own vehicle servicing and repair business in Newbury, Berkshire and we were commissioned to create them a standard web site that would give them a prescence on the internet. Along with a Google Places Listing, Wash Water Service Station can now be found for local searches for their services that they provide to both trade and the public.</p>
<p>We will soon be providing <strong>Wash Water Service Station</strong><a href="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk"></a> with a <strong>BRAND NEW</strong> web site and a fully optimised Google Places Listing to hopefully take their business to the next level using our new theme that is currently being developed for local businesses.</p>

<h3>Shurlock Row Garages</h3>
<p>Based in the small village of Shurlock Row, a few miles from both Wokingham and Maidenhead, Allen Powell has been the proprietor of <strong>Shurlock Row Garages</strong> since the late 1970&#8242;s and built up a huge reputation as a Skoda Dealer.</p>
<p>A number of expansions were required from Skoda which unfortunately the showroom at Waltham St.Lawrence couldn&#8217;t have due to space limitations so unfortunately Allen parted company with Skoda after 29 years of service and took up a new franchise.</p>
<p>In 2009, Allen relinquished the showroom and concentrated and the servicing side of the motor industry in Shurlock Row and today still has many repeat customers from the Skoda era.</p>
<p>We built Shurlock Row Garages web site using WordPress in 2010 and we <strong>FULLY </strong>managed the site for them. In December 2011 we added a mobile website to our portfolio for Shurlock Row Garages.</p>

<h3>GE Motors &#8211; Warminster</h3>
<p>GE Motors Ltd in Warminster, Wiltshire is a newcomer to the Motor Trade and doesn&#8217;t have a forecourt, so he wanted a web prescence in order to get customers to be able to see and purchase his cars. We set up GE Motors on our WordPress Motor Theme, eDealer. Along with his Autotrader and eBay a/c, they now get a good number of visits to his website and their Google Places Listing page.</p>
<p>This is a <strong>FULLY</strong> managed client.</p>
<p>We also optimised their <a href="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/place?rlz=1T4ADBF_en-GBGB297GB297&amp;um=1&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;q=ge+motors+ltd+warminster&amp;fb=1&amp;gl=uk&amp;hq=ge+motors+ltd&amp;hnear=0x48722d484701d4ef:0x19d36adcb8d967c9,Warminster&amp;cid=7686812783852173631&amp;ei=_V9OTpmdPIG2hQeixuHtBg&amp;sa=X&amp;oi=local_result&amp;ct=placepage-link&amp;resnum=1&amp;ved=0CD0Q4gkwAA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Google Places Listing</a> and after just 3 months we have managed to secure a place for them in the top 7 box on the 1st page of Google for a number of related keywords.</p>

<h3>Peacehaven Villa Loule Portugal</h3>
<p>Bernadette Little, owner of Peacehaven Villa which is situated in Loule, Portugal was looking for a website to highlight the beauty of her villa and its tranquil surroundings to potential clients who wanted a luxury villa holiday.</p>
<p>A major emphasis on the site was to capture the stunning photographs taken, the ambience and seclusion that Peacehaven Villa gives to anyone renting this villa.</p>
<p>A weather widget showing the current temperature was a visual addition to show potential customers that this villa gets some great weather most of the year round. There is also a flight widget on the website for customers to obtain quick cheap flight from their country.</p>
<p>The Peacehaven Villa Loule Portugal website now has an availability page too.</p>

<h3>Bourne Valley Service Station</h3>
<p>We have been proud to be associated with Mel &amp; Carole Elkins at <strong>Bourne Valley Service Station</strong> since 2004, when we were referred to them to create their very first web site, having been established in the village of Porton, Salisbury since 1985.</p>
<p>Knowing that the internet was not going to go away, Mel realised that his business needed a website to show his used car stock to a wider audience than just serving the local community. As with Little Gems, we created Bourne Valley Service Station&#8217;s first site in Dreamweaver but it wasn&#8217;t until 2010 that we radically changed the website using the CMS WordPress platform.</p>
<p>This is a <em><strong>fully managed</strong></em> client and Mel simply sends us the vehicle photographs when ready, some brief details and we use our vehicle checking sytem to get the correct specification etc and we create a new listing. We also manage the Blog on Bourne Valley Service Station&#8217;s web site and in July this year, we took his site to the next level, adding videos, for which a YouTube channel was created and videos embedded into their web site.</p>
<p>This website&#8217;s Alexa ranking has continued to increase month after month and to date, this is our best achievement, having this month (Oct 2011) reached a ranking of 375,321 which is in the top 2% of <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>ALL</strong></span> websites on the www. We have yet to find a small Motor Trader that can get anywhere near that ranking.</p>
<p>We have continued to monitor Bourne Valley Service Station&#8217;s Google Places Listing and with some recent tweaking, we have succeeded in getting top rankings for our client with a number of different keywords. &#8216;Second hand cars Salisbury&#8217; is now achieving the &#8216;B&#8217; position and will enable Bourne Valley Service Station&#8217;s internet prescence to be extremely strong within the Salisbury area.</p>

<h3>Little Gems Cars</h3>
<p><strong>Little Gems Cars</strong> of Andover, Hampshire were looking to upgrade their previous web site that we had created back in 2003 using Dreamweaver. The site was now looking out-dated and a fresh overhaul was due and Nick wanted to have a website that was to be updated more than once a week, so we went to work creating a brand new look web site.</p>
<p>We created a WordPress web site for them to showcase their used cars for sale, giving a fresh new look to their internet prescence and they haven&#8217;t looked back since. We recently included a dramatic trailer intro on their homepage using video to capture viewers attention!</p>
<p>We undertook some WordPress training on-site with Little Gems proprietor Nick Anderton, who now has the ability to update his site whenever he needs to and all we simply do now is maintain the site for hosting, regular updates and back-ups. Of course, Nick always has <a href="http://www.somersetwebconsultancy.co.uk">Somerset Web Consultancy</a> to fall back on if any support is required either through email support ticket or by phone.</p>
<p>Somerset Web Consultancy also optimised <a href="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/place?hl=en&amp;sugexp=bvie&amp;xhr=t&amp;cp=24&amp;qscrl=1&amp;nord=1&amp;rlz=1T4ADBF_en-GBGB297GB297&amp;bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&amp;ion=1&amp;biw=1440&amp;bih=663&amp;wrapid=tljp1313707313859024&amp;um=1&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;q=little+gems+cars+andover&amp;fb=1&amp;gl=uk&amp;hq=little+gems+cars&amp;hnear=0x4873f09af8f411c7:0x94f77c4aa05e123f,Andover&amp;cid=12670990534293976984&amp;ei=R5VNTuScK8rLhAfW9tzZBg&amp;sa=X&amp;oi=local_result&amp;ct=placepage-link&amp;resnum=1&amp;sqi=2&amp;ved=0CDAQ4gkwAA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Little Gems Cars Google Places listing</a> and they now rank at the top for keywords associated to their business.</p>
