    Social Media Advice

    Hi Broom80, I concur with most of the comments above and yet advise a slightly different way to make your decision on 'which social media'. Relative to the demographic (age particularly) of your target audience of Students I recommend researching which social media channels they use the most...

    Newish site struggling to get pages indexed

    I agree with Ace (above).... and the important wording of 'it takes time'. If you force the crawl or fudge the internal linking it risks looking unnatural and could impact your site overall.

    Started a Business - Advice to help grow it please!

    Hi, might be worth looking at the 'Unique' model too....although this product/franchise is female product orientated could their model work for you? Also what about 'Corporate Xmas Gift Boxes' targeting those who provide staff gifts? Just some thoughts.

    Anyone had experience with GoDaddy?

    And of course consider if you are building a web site simply to have a 'presence' or as a 'commercial' site. The latter applies to e-commerce stores and the problem with Shopify for example is that your site is one of thousands on their platform, reducing ranking potential.

    Working from home and office

    Haa haa, I why not! George Clarke's "Amazing Spaces" has some great solutions or if you're lucky enough to be in warm climates then all one needs is a 'sun shade' (so you can still read your emails on screen).

    Working from home and office

    Do you know anyone who runs a business? If you do (or do not) I recommend asking around and seeing if a 'desk rental' is available.

    Not 100% sure what marketing is, or how to do it?

    Interesting threads (and clearly thought provoking) only thing I didn't really agree with or potentially understand was "....your 'marketing success' has come mainly from efforts that would not traditionally be seen as marketing, for example putting the effort into finding out what services...

    One good reason NOT to use email templates

    Totally agree with Guy Webb here & subsequent comments. I guess the problem is that due to 'spam' emails the ESPs & client servers have got increasingly sophisticated, so stripping out/blocking nicely rendered emails by professionals. Let alone templates. Shame, but all got to 'adapt to...
