			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you do then you&#8217;re no doubt already publicising your company&#8217;s Twitter and looking for more followers. Another useful way of utilising your tweets is integrating them into your website so anyone viewing your site is also kept up to date with your most recently tweeted news.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve applied this to several of our clients&#8217; sites and they&#8217;ve found it a useful tool for quick updates. Not only is it very user friendly but it also has positive SEO implications. Tying in your site and Twitter account creates a stronger relationship between the two and gives another source for people to access or find your Twitter content.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;d like to enquire about integrating your Twitter feed in to your site then please feel free to get in touch by emailing <a title="Twitter Feed Integration" href="mailto:mail@treefrogdesign.tv?Subject=Twitter%20Feed%20Integration">mail@treefrogdesign.tv</a> or calling 020 8399 8030</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Social Media such as Facebook and Twitter can be useful to your business and communicating with your clients and potential customers.</p>
<p>It almost seems like everyone is on Facebook now, with Business Pages being created for so many companies. Having such a large audience active on Facebook makes it hard to ignore the potential worth tapping.</p>
<p>However all social media sites rely on one main ingredient: interest. Without something of interest for individuals and potential clients to follow on your social media they’ll inevitably wander off.</p>
<p>Three main points to consider before setting up your Social Media:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Is the social media suitable to your customers? </strong><br />
Not everyone will follow Twitter and not all businesses are suited to every social media</li>
<li><strong>What will your content be? </strong><br />
Without interesting content relevant to your target audience you’ll not maintain followers.</li>
<li><strong>Will you keep it up to date? </strong><br />
Once you’ve targeted your audience and thought about interesting content, you have to regularly update it with equally interesting or relevant new posts. If you only update it a couple of times a year it’s unlikely to be effective.</li>
</ol>
<p>Without doubt social media is a key tool in the modern marketplace and can be very effective when used correctly. As with all marketing it needs to be nurtured frequently to reach it’s optimum effectiveness.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most appealing aspects of blogs is that they naturally attract search engine traffic. Their content is structured ideally for search engines to index as most are set up with clear navigation, a strong foundation of links between the internal blog pages and are suitably designed to be linked externally. Blogs can act as an excellent intermediary between valuable traffic you wouldn’t otherwise reach and your site. Through a strong network of easily generated internal and external links you are able to increase on your search engine rankings much faster (as little as 0-3 months) than you would without a blog.</p>
<p>The traffic to your blog will allow more traffic to reach your site which means a greater audience will be able to find your product or service.</p>
<p>Setting up a blog brings you directly into a massive online community where website material is made available to multiple other sites. This is known as ‘content syndication’ with the most commonly known type being ‘RSS’ (Really Simple Syndication).  An ‘RSS’ feed is commonly featured on most blog platforms (e.g. WordPress). It is a method of allowing users to link to your site and receive updates as and when they are made to your content.</p>
