Search? How about BP trends??


BP stock value is hitting the floor. A feeling for CEOs and such likened to that of the wildlife and marine life affected by the recent spill.

This is not the first time that the share price has plummeted though. Look back to Feb 2003:

BP and Pertamina in pipeline safety row.

Yet again, accused of negligence. It seems, some will never learn from mistakes!

PembsLocal.

A work in progress.
This is going to be a community site for Pembrokeshire and surrounding areas.
It will contain business listings, event calender, places to stay, eat & drink.
In time there will even be a local classified advertising section.
We're currently working on the business listings software implementation and are looking to launch the site within the next 6 weeks.
Take a look and please give us some feedback:

Google Backgrounds

Hmmm,
What do we prefer? A fast loading search engine or a slow one with goreish images?

What on earth are they thinking. Even though they have removed the image, there is still an option to 'Change Background' which evidently - does not work. I though that these were industry leaders. It looks more like a college project which has not been finished!!!

digilarb developing

We have recently launched our new website (www.digilarb.co.uk) and are pretty happy with how it looks and operates.  We would of course like some constructive feedback if anyone is willing...!


We're not cheap.

We are affordable.
While looking in to SEO etc I've noticed an increasing number of web design companies selling them selves off as cheap.  We have claimed the same in the past.  It has dawned on me that the statement is actually really negative.
It makes me think of the say - "buy cheap - get cheap" or "you get what you pay for", hence advertising as affordable.

While I'm on the subject of SEO...

As many will have noticed, Google have recently been updating the way that search results are found.
Because we are a new company, I have always liked the fact that when you search for 'digilarb' you would only get results based on our company.  You would always get the 'Did you mean digilab?' line, but I this was tolerable.
Now - however, when you search for 'digilarb' the top to listings are actually for 'digilab'!!!  You can imagine my frustration at Google for this.  It's almost as if they are unaware of the whole 'page-1-of-Google' mission.
Rant over...
   ...for now!
