Search Engine Optimization

Here in the Berkshires our economy weighs heavily on the tourism industry. Personal experience and word of mouth are most important, but besides that, how else do visitors find out where to stay and what to do?

The answer is Google, or Yahoo! or MSN. And if you aren't on the first few pages of search results your business doesn't exist in the minds of tourists using these tools to plan their itinerary.

Unlike paid advertising (Google AdWords etc.) search engine optimization literally optimizes the text on your website so that it will show up in the top results for given search terms (e.g. “bed and breakfast, the berkshires”) without the need for paid advertising (pay-per-click campaigns). Obviously, SEO is a far cheaper way to market online and it is not only cost-effective, but perhaps the most important thing you can do to expose your business on the web.

We stand ready to optimize new and existing sites and pages for flat fees starting at $250. Our SEO practices are ethical and adhere to a variety of specific guidelines including Google's Webmaster Guidelines.

Defining Strategy

Perhaps no word is bantered about in business today more than strategy. While strategy means many things to many people and many definitions are considered correct, it nonetheless remains one of the least understood words in business today.

Viral Marketing

It’s common knowledge that word-of-mouth and viral marketing are the most cost effective ways to spread a message. Why? The main reason this is the case is that most all of us have learned to block out today's paid-for advertising messages.
