🖼️ Hero Images That Actually Convert

A beautiful homepage banner is nice. But a banner that drives action? Much better.

Too many sites waste that prime real estate with vague taglines or artsy visuals that don’t say anything. Your hero section should make it blindingly obvious what you do and why it matters, in about 3 seconds.

✅ Want to design one that works harder? Here’s how:

• Choose an image that connects emotionally and fits your audience
• Pair it with a headline that says exactly what you offer
• Add one strong CTA, and make it impossible to miss
• Keep it clean, focused, and mobile-friendly

Your homepage isn’t a gallery. It’s the front door to your business. Make that first impression count.

What Does Your Brand Sound Like?

Suno, ai tool, lets you test the waters of sonic branding with just a prompt. It's simple, just choose the genre and write what you want the track to be about (in 200 characters or less).

Then Suno generates two original sounds to match.

✨ Want to use it in your content? You’ll need a commercial licence, but trying it out is totally free.

📷 Visual Search Is Here. Are You Ready?

More people are using Google Lens to search by photo instead of typing. They snap a pic of something they like, and expect instant answers.

If your business relies on being found visually (think cafés, salons, retail, home services), this matters.

To show up in those searches:
• Use clear, high-quality photos of your products or services
• Rename image files with real names, not “IMG_8274”
• Add alt text and descriptive captions
• Keep your Google Business Profile images up to date

Google is paying attention to what you post, and so are your customers. Make it easy for them to find and choose you.

When Did You Last Audit Your Socials?

Social platforms move fast, and what worked 6 months ago might not be cutting it now.

That’s why a regular social media audit isn’t a luxury. It’s a smart move.

Here’s some low hanging fruit to check:

🔍 Does your profile clearly say what you do?
📲 Are your links and CTAs still relevant?
🎯 Is your content aligned with your current business goals?
📈 Are you showing up where your audience actually hangs out?

Even small fixes can make a big impact.

✨ Want an outside perspective?
We’ll audit your social presence and give you tailored, actionable insights.

Website Builders and SEO: What You Need to Know Before You Click Publish

Website builders like Wix, Squarespace, Shopify and others have made it incredibly easy for anyone to build a website. And for some businesses, they’re fine... to a point.

But when it comes to SEO, they’re not all created equal.

Here’s where website builders can trip you up:

🚫 Limited Control Over Technical SEO
Things like site speed, structured data, server performance, and advanced meta settings aren’t always fully customisable. And Google cares about these things.

🚫 Bloated Code
Many builders generate a lot of unnecessary code behind the scenes, which can slow your site down. Site speed is now a ranking factor for Google.

🚫 Weak URL Structure
Some builders don’t allow full control over URLs, which means you might end up with messy, unoptimised page addresses that aren't ideal for search engines.

🚫 Platform Lock-in
If you ever outgrow the builder and want to move your site elsewhere, migration can be painful and bad for your rankings if not done carefully.

🚫 Limited Customisation for Growth
As you want to scale SEO efforts (think content clusters, advanced schema, or international SEO), you may quickly hit the limits of what your platform allows.

✅ The bottom line:
Website builders are great for getting online quickly. But if you’re serious about long-term visibility, organic traffic, and growth, SEO needs more flexibility, control and expertise than many builders can offer out of the box.

Before you pick the cheapest and fastest route, make sure it won't cost you results later.

"I’ve got social media followers. Do I really need a website?"

Short answer: yes. Longer answer: here’s why your website still matters, even if you’ve built a decent following on social.

Your social audience is rented. The algorithm changes, your reach tanks, or the platform moves the goalposts overnight. You don’t control it.
Your website is yours. It’s where people go when they want to check you out properly.

They want to see:

🤔Who you are
🤔What you do
🤔Why they should trust you
🤔How to buy, book or enquire

Social gets attention. Your website closes the deal.

Even if you don’t get a million hits, your best leads still check your site before they buy.

A strong website doesn’t replace social. It backs it up. And it works 24/7 while you sleep.

Your Business Is Growing. Is Your Digital Keeping Up?

When you hit a certain stage, marketing gets more complicated.

Multiple platforms. Disconnected data. Random agencies doing random things.

What you need isn’t more tactics.
You need a partner who sees the full picture.

✅ Align your website, SEO, ads and content under one clear strategy
✅ Know exactly where your budget is being spent
✅ Get proactive advice, not just reports

We don’t just manage tasks. We manage outcomes.

If you're ready to simplify, scale and finally get control of your digital, let’s talk.

Podcasts Aren’t Dead… But They’re Changing

It feels like everyone started a podcast. But now? Listeners are getting pickier.

Podcast fatigue is real.
Attention spans are shorter.
People want content they don’t have to fully commit to.

Enter: ambient content.
Background listening. Lo-fi streams. Soft education while working or walking. It’s content people can absorb passively, without giving it 100% focus.

💡 What does this mean for businesses?
Sometimes, your audience doesn’t want deep dives. They want short, snackable, easy-to-dip-in content that fits into their busy day.

The future isn’t less content. It’s content that respects attention.

How to Land Free Media Coverage

Getting press isn't just about sending cold emails anymore. Journalists are swamped, inboxes overflow, and the same old pitches get deleted fast.

Here are 3 smarter ways to cut through the noise:

1️⃣ Be useful on social
Follow relevant journalists on X (Twitter), LinkedIn or Threads. Engage with their posts thoughtfully, share their work, and become a name they recognise before you pitch.

2️⃣ Leverage Help A Reporter Out (HARO) alternatives
Platforms like HARO, Qwoted, and SourceBottle connect journalists directly with expert sources. Set up alerts and respond quickly when a query fits your expertise.

3️⃣ Pitch a fresh angle
Don't send "we're great, please feature us." Instead, offer a story. Trends you’re seeing, insights you’ve learned, or a local angle the journalist can build on. Make it easy for them to write the piece.

Good press isn’t about shouting louder, it’s about being relevant, helpful, and human.

❤️ Supporting Jon from T2 Fire & TECS

One of our clients, Jon from T2 Fire & TECS, is taking on the Bournemouth Pier to Pier Swim 2025 to raise money for the British Heart Foundation.

This challenge is personal for Jon. He’s swimming in memory of his parents, John and Anne, and because he lives with a heart condition himself.

The British Heart Foundation continues to fund life-saving research. Just £24 can fund two hours of research by an early career scientist. Every donation counts.

Let’s get behind Jon and his friend Samantha as they take the plunge this July.
👉 Donate here: https://www.justgiving.com/page/jonp2p

We are fully behind you Jon. Go smash it!
