Search engine optimisation always seems to easily fall into this category. It never fails to amaze us just how many companies spend their time employing black hat SEO practices. Designing and creating a website that uses ethical and robust SEO practices takes no more time and will mean that your website consistently ranks highly on those all-important search engine results pages.

Check out this article which we think wraps up nicely all those bad SEO practices to avoid:

The Gareth Thomas Foundation is a charity with one aim: to help young people from different backgrounds inspire others to break down the barriers of diversity. This new charity will have the direct involvement of professional rugby player Gareth Thomas. greenoliveweb is delighted to be associated with the charity; we set up the holding page for the foundation ahead of Gareth’s appearance on Channel 4 to talk about the charity.

We wish Gareth, the charity trustees and partners great success with this project. We hope to develop a whole new range of features for the new site soon, to engage more and more people worldwide in this exciting project.

One of our favourite parts of the process is sitting down with you to find out what you want your website to do and figuring out how we can make that happen.

Broadly, there are three main kinds of web design:

• Complete change — we’ll create you a new website or give your existing website a radically new look
• Gradual change — we’ll redesign your site section by section
• Evolutionary change — we’ll make improvements to your existing site

Of course it’s not always this clear cut, but this is something we can discuss with you.

Another bonus of using an open-source CMS is that it’s collaborative: as many people as you like can add and update content to your website at once. Want to keep track of the various versions of the pages on your website? CMS have version control, making it easy for you to track your progress.

Open source software lets people share their software and, if appropriate, adapt and evolve it to meet their needs. Are you using Mozilla Firefox right now to access the internet? Firefox is a great example of a hugely successful open source web browser.

SEO is pretty simple when you know what to do. Here are a few basic things to consider for a start:

• Research which keywords will work for your business so you can tailor your website’s meta tags (the HTML tags which search engines read when ranking your pages)
• Optimise the content on your website: relevant and keyword rich
• Build quality inbound links to your website by joining in topical online discussions and submitting articles

If you do these things right, there’s no reason why your company shouldn’t appear in the top 10 search engine results.

There are lots of ways to cheat when it comes to SEO, for example, keyword stuffing, but this will undoubtedly backfire and it’s really worth investing your time in legitimate SEO practices instead.
