holistic website design google search in kent

How to go top of Google in 24hrs

Big claim but very realistic if you know how Google works and how to focus keyword phrases. Last week (22-1-21) we issued a news blog about ‘Holistic WordPress web designers‘. This week (25-1-21) the news blog is page 1 on Google (see screen sample).

This was achieved within 24 hours but why did it work so well?

All of this and investment in new equipment/software is an ongoing process. We talk to our support team nearly every day and enjoy fantastic response times. If you have ever had cause to report...

We all take email delivery for granted, PC, Mac, laptop,tablet or phone – they just get delivered, correct? Of course yes, like the postman delivers every day. But it’s not a simple delivery, an email can take a complicated path and have to get through some officious security. Also, devices, ISPs and device software handle emails in slightly different ways as well. OHM strongly recommend that all emails are managed using 3rd party hosting like Office 365 because...
