Receptional are always looking for exciting events to attend as they are great places to meet industry folks and expand our knowledge of the Internet Marketing industry.

Google's intention with Realtime Search since they first introduced this feature last December was to bring the freshest information on the web.

Dear Usability People,I am a HiPPO. I have a website that I'm really proud of because it looks awesome and people tell me it's great. Unfortunately my website isn't selling as many things as I would like and so I am emailing you to request your consultancy.

Twitter has recently released a couple of new features that aid us in building up our social network.

After successfully completing the AdWords Fundamental and the Advanced Search exam, I thought I would share my experiences as although both exams required various levels of caffeine, my approach to both was pretty similar.

Google's attempt to introduce subtitles on YouTube videos is somewhat impaired.

This is my story of starting and finishing a Link Building Campaign at Receptional in Flitwick.

Until recently, we have been unable to quantify the value of non-brand keyword activity as effectively as we would have liked to.

It seems that all these years I have spent link building for Receptional have been a waste of my time. All the research, the testing and innovation have been needless.

Let's face it, you'll never read the latest terms for adobe flashplayer 10.1. Here's a potted summary of why.

I noticed a sneaky world cup related logo appearing on Google this morning - not in the usual location for many of the Google doodles, but (as has happened with previous sketches) within the page l

Last month, Google significantly revamped the "Top Search Queries" section of Webmaster Tools which put some very interesting data at the fingertips of webmasters and search marketers.

As any self-respecting SEO does, I make an effort to canonicalise all URLs that I deal with. As a preference, this is always with a server-side redirect, with a 301 status code.

Google Alerts are great... mostly... but they do go wrong if your brand name is made up of generic words.

Last week I was lucky enough to join Rustybrick and many others for a conference in Jerusalem. Now Jerusalem really isn't what I expected - it was generally much calmer and really pleasant...

Some time ago Microsoft launched its 'new' search engine, Bing, in an admirable attempt to take back some of the colossal search engine market share currently held by Google.  

There are so many signs of poorly managed PPC campaigns, from incorrect pricing in ad text and sloppy use of keyword targeting, to even more expensive oversights such as missing action tracking and non existent landing pages. The indicator that we've noticed in this instance is a result of something that should be every PPC account managers friend: The Search Query Report.

A big thanks to all those that attended Dixon's presentation, 'Link Building Fundamentals' at SES London.

I often feel that ad scheduling, and in particular the bid adjustment feature, are undervalued tools and certainly have not been used to their full potential in a number of PPC Health Checks that I have recently been involved in. The logic in spending your PPC budget more effectively on the days of the week, and hours of the day when your visitors are more likely to become customers is a no-brainer, but it still surprises me the amount of advertising budget that is wasted during unprofitable parts of the week.

In November 2009, I became the second member of the Receptional team to gain the Google Analytics Individual Qualification having ‘graduated' from Conversion University, passing the exam with a ver
