Publishing Services at simonthescribe
here are many useful services here at simonthescribe, a master of the digital age. Simonthescribe specialises in helping small businesses to build a presence in digital and print media. Like simonthescribe, more than one third of small businesses operate from home but the importance of home-based industry and its needs are not recognised. They are often regarded as being economically marginal. This assumption could not be further from the truth. As the government is slowly realising, small rather than large industry is the backbone of our economy, especially as our economy changes direction in response to environmental factors.
Simonthescribe recognises your needs as a small business. I recognise that you want the flexibility of running your own web site and creating low-volume, ‘print at home’ marketing campaigns for specific markets or products. I strive to keep your costs to a minimum and actively help you to DIY whenever possible.
For example, according to the Federation of Small Businesses, up to £3 billion is wasted by SME’s on web sites that are completely invisible to search engines. Research shows that although 2.79 million small businesses have a web site, 62% of these have not invested in key search-word optimisation. With simonthescribe, this aspect is built-in to your website from the outset. All of the text elements of your site are tuned to your carefully selected search engine ‘key words’ to get your site to the top of the major lists.

Web sites are not magazines, they need to be well conceived, well made and well managed to keep people coming back. Web 2 technologies at aplus1 offer advanced interaction, sound and dynamic image to start with. They also offer you the flexibility to grow with your business. You can just hand your web site needs over to simonthescribe or be proactive in the process and learn the rudiments of web site authoring and design using a content management systems (Wordpress) with our tuition services so that you can keep on top of your own site management. |
This service offers small businesses help with initial research, design, setting up, development and marketing. Cards and stationery, invoices, letterheads and other stock stationery is coherently designed for your needs, to print from your own computers if needed. This service gets you on-line with a basic web site and e-mail address that is managed while you learn more about the process. If you wish, after an agreed time, the site management is handed over to you and online help and training is offered. |
