I did spend quite a bit of cash on the old SEO about 18months ago and now it seems I am at the back and need to pay again to get up the front.  O really too much, all this pressure to compete and be on the first page for school uniform suppliers. 

figure I will try my way a different way, so mixing it up with a little bit of google adwords, a little bit of blog text and a whole lot of radio advertising.  Radio is relatively cheap in the rural area our business is located in so it is a good investment and it has proven so.  Amazingly it did not so much drive everyone to the website but got them in the car driving to our store!! Hello what better way to close a deal than in person.

the internet opens our stores to the whole world and our services to the whole world but seems that concentrating on some local focus is necessary to drive sales. So SEO should I be investing in this every few months or taking a crack at it myself.. lets just see how this all works.  Handy hints on how to get better SEO results, put your site infront of more people and get more online purchases are very very welcome here.

‘Think global, act local’.. it means so much more.. it means putting your hand up and sponsoring a local sporting team.  Luckily Gentle Giants manufactures and supplies sports team apparel, tshirts, printing and embroidery.  We will often supply these to a team and splash our logo on the items.  It gives us great advertising and it really helps our local community.

I could keep going on this subject but I am far more fascinatedAbout the Giant by a compulsion to master blogging and to get this blog noticed.. I am a blog beginner and wonder if I need to tattoo the blog address on my forehead to get people to notice it!  Some handy advice has come my way by true pro-bloggers and I am about to try it all.  I will update and let you know what works. But if you have any ideas please feel free to share!
