Online Marketing Course Update

Part 6 of the online marketing course for business owners is now up on the Marketing manual blog.

There have been some important changes in SEO in recent months that not every SEO 'expert' has caught onto yet - and ceratinly not all website designers!

Go to the Marketing Manual Blog for latest news on that.

Naturally, our online marketing services in Bury St Edmunds are bang up to date!

Why This Website is Number One

'This website' being our Cinnamon Edge site, which is number one for the competitive term 'online marketing Bury St Edmunds', since that's what we do and that's where we are.

A few months ago, due to an, erm, technical hitch, we had to hastily rebuild our website on a new domain. We decided to use the opportunity to concentrate on getting it to number one as quickly as possible, as a test for ourselves and to prove to you we could do it.

And we did, within about three weeks. The site is still at number one for the key phrase we targetted, but because of the speed with which it was built we didn't really trouble ourselves too much with the design and appearance. So we also proved that, as far as SEO is concerned, design in that sense doesn't matter.

But how did we get to number one? The same way you can; by following the steps outlined here, on our Marketing Manual blog. Steps one to four are there now, with more to follow.

In fact, not only did we get to number one, we even got to positions two to ten at the same time, so we actually held ALL of page one of Google for a time - just to prove we could.

We'll be rebuilding the Cinnamon Edge site again in the next few weeks so it will be a site we can be proud of, but for now it serves to prove a point - online marketing, in Bury St Edmunds or anywhere else, is about much more than building pretty websites.

Online Marketing in Bury St Edmunds

If you have a business in Bury St Edmunds or Suffolk, Cinnamon Edge has some good news.

In fact, it's probably good news, wherever you are, if your business could do with some marketing help, even though we've labelled our project 'Online marketing in Bury St Edmunds'.

That's because we're based in Bury St Edmunds, not because you have to be.

But the online marketing part, that's for anyone. The great thing about the Internet is that it's essentially free. Free to add your business to and free for customers to access.

So marketing online is a bargain, but that's just one advantage.

It's also amazingly powerful, because it can be very local AND because it can be global - whichever suits your business.

It's also always 'on' - meaning it's there whenever you choose to look, and whatever you want to look for. And you only find what you're looking for. If you search for an accountant in Bury St Edmunds, for example, you won't usually see an advert for used cars or information about stair lifts. So it's incredibly, almost perfectly, targeted.

That's why most people search online these days, including for local products and services.

Which means you could be found online at any time by exactly the people who want what you offer. And you won't waste a single penny trying to sell your stuff to anyone else.

So, if you have a business, almost any business, and you're not taking advantage of online marketing yet, can I ask why not?
