Hot Off The Press

Laptop

Laptop. We try to post a new message to our blog at least once a week, reflecting on our current work, new projects and working in the website and design industry.

We have been writing our company blog since 2006. It's a mixture of news about our business and the projects we're working on, along with more personal thoughts and comments on the experience of working in the print and web design business.

Our blog is also a chance for us to flag up newly finished sites to the public and invite people to pay them a visit. This not only illustrates what we do, but also helps to promote our clients' businesses.

You can also sign up to this blog as an rss feed. Click on the link in your browser to subscribe. We usually post a new entry at least once a week.

We've found it a fun and interesting experience to keep our company's blog. There's a gentle sort of discipline that it brings to how we think about out work, and how we want to present that to the world. The blog pages have also generated many leads over the years, giving us a chance to talk about specific design and web issues in a way that new and current clients can understand. It also hopefully gives you a sense of our way of working, of our voice as a company and individuals. We hope it also helps people to feel confident about picking up the phone to talk to us, whether or not they end up becoming clients or become part of our business network that we recommend to our clients.

If you would like some help with adding a blog or rss feed to your website then do give us a ring on 01300 320076 or drop us an email to jon@alacrify.co.uk
