Small is Beautiful!

July has been a busy month at SiteWeave and we launched three new, single page web sites:
A check on the Google ranking of these three sites shows that although they are small, they are working beautifully!

A2Z Removals of Portsmouth searches:
flat removals portsmouth - ranks 1
house removals havant - ranks 4

Bin It Portsmouth searches
washing machines removed portsmouth - ranks 1
garden waste disposal portsmouth - ranks 5

Blue Door Bindery searches
repairing old books hampshire - ranks 1
bookbinding hampshire - ranks 8

One of the features of a web site that can aid its high ranking is the size - generally the bigger the web site the higher ranked it is. But a small web site that is well designed, has good, appropriate content and is well optimised can - as we see from these three web sites - also rank well.

SiteWeave have been designing, building and promoting web sites for more than ten years and host more than 100 web sites, most of which we have designed. If you would like a new web site, have a web site that you'd like updated or promoted then please contact John S at SiteWeave for a discussion and estimate.

Enlarged Woodmancote Contractors web site is now on line

With over 35 years of experience, the business provides an extensive range of agricultural services: from forage harvesting to combining, from hedge trimming to compost spreading and from drilling to baling.

Partnerships with landowners and farmers is an increasingly important part of their business and they have formed various share farming agreements over the past ten years, giving farmers a guaranteed return on investment.

SiteWeave worked closely with Nick Smith of Woodmancote Contractors to build the bespoke web site that displays the equipment they use and describes the services they provide.

If you are interested in a web site, be it large or small, contact SiteWeave to discuss your needs - with ten years of experience in web site design and search engine optimisation and 100 web sites currently on the Internet we are sure that we can create and promote a web site that will help you and your business.

The new Safety Light is available with a UK type
three-pin plug and also in a two-pin plug version which makes it usable in scores of countries around the world.
