logo or corporate identity but there's much more
to it than that. Come and hear Jackie Jarvis on
July 4th, at 19:30 at Norden Farm for the Arts.

LPA
Award Winner Gains Success in Fine Art Market

| Alys Tomlinson
was a winner in our Photoart series in 2005 and
explains why the LPA works for her: "I used
to look at the LPA’s work when I was a student
and think how great it would be to get involved
with them. I think it’s important to be part
of a wider organisation – the LPA seems very
inclusive and certainly encourages a diverse range
of artists. Involvement with the LPA has proved
to lead on to other things for me." |

Optimising
Your Website - AND Getting The Balance Right
Business
in Berkshire |
|
 |
|
| These days
it seems so many business owners are obsessed with
the concept of SEO (Search Engine Optimization).
There’s tons of information and advice available
on the net, much of it conflicting, and it’s
easy to spend hours modifying, re-writing, and tweaking
your web site. Adding some keyword-rich content
here, building reciprocal links there. But does
this approach sometimes leave our site visitors
cold? |
