    Ekmpowershop Support any Good?

    Im amazed to see such negative comments on EKM support. I've been using them since the spring and have found their support to be astonishingly good. Really helpful, though sometimes you are on hold for a long time --dont call at lunchtime! Im currently moving away from them for other reasons...

    Looking for cushion packaging

    It's a little unclear what you mean by "packaging". We use a roll of flat tubing and a heat sealer to create custom polybags for our cushions. is this what you meant?

    Exporting to the US - Tax?

    Hi everyone, I export just one product to the US (through amazon FBA) and do not currently pay any US tax. This works out quite well because the lack of tax offsets the expense of shipping. Is that how it works, or am I missing something? Im thinking about exporting more of our products...

    Are paid sites like Yahoo Directory or BOTW worth the money?

    Agree entirely. Directory links have been dead for a decade! Content marketing is okay as it goes, but if you can build/create some resource that other sites would find hard to replicate (this is still content-marketing, but with knobs on..) that would be even better. Then go tell a few...

    Are paid sites like Yahoo Directory or BOTW worth the money?

    I'd avoid cold calling just for the bad karma :) Have you tried to run a small Google Adwords campaign? You might not get much from it but you should at least make sure that anyone actively seeking an accountant in your area sees your website..

    Any Branding Experts...

    Not only that, but try to imagine 5yrs down the line. You may want to expand the product range or scope of offers. So even better would be dragonstore.co.uk --not so good in the very short term, but a real investment in mid-long term as it wont box you in.

    New Product - Wordpress Website or Main Store

    Sounds like a plan. Until you start getting some free traffic you can always use Adwords. If you're careful on your conversion optimisation this can work very well for you. Good luck!

    New Product - Wordpress Website or Main Store

    Depends how much you need/value the Search marketing aspects. A new site has no links, no credibility. Your existing site may be off-topic though, which is also important. Can you say a bit more about the structure of your setup?
