Text’s Business Development Manager, Graeme Hastings commented: “Unlike other internet marketing agencies, Text Internet Marketing does not believe in shrouding services such as web design, SEO and pay-per-click campaigns in mystery,” adding “there are no dark arts involved, it’s common sense and hard work.”

The Free Express Web Test enables webmasters to review their sites instantly to gauge their effectiveness in search engine rankings, enabling the reviewer to ascertain areas within the site that need to be addressed.

Manchester based Text is at the forefront of internet marketing, specialising in content based web design, PPC campaigns, banner advertising, link building, online PR and much more with clients ranging from Haydock Park, to Baines and Ernst and Donington Park (a list of Texts web design clients can be found on Text’s portfolio page).

Good bye and thanks for all the fish…

Tongue in cheek or a genuine gesture?

“Developers,” a VP at Electronic Arts once told me, explaining why there were so many me-too Windows applications, “will walk through the desert in their socks to get to an installed base.”

True enough. But it doesn’t quite explain the results of a survey issued last week by Evans Data Corp. The headline was that most developers are still not targeting Windows Vista when they write new apps. Only 8% of the 380 developers surveyed were writing for Vista; 49% were still targeting Windows XP.

I welcome any increase in development of non Windows Software, even if it is mainly an increase for a Macs (which I dislike only slightly less than Windowz).

As a Linux user and LAMP developer I have been very happy to see an increase in software dedicated to the linux environment. Up until the last few years Linux desktop users have had to put up with ported versions of windows software that often requires quite an advanced knowledge of wine to get working, but now dedicated LInux software is emergine that not only competes with Windows based software, now quite often outperforms it on both a funcationality and an efficiency front.

I still think Macs are far to slow to be any real competition to windows though…

During the last couple of years, hundreds of people have received letters from lawyers demanding compensation for the alleged uploading of copyright works. Their demands state that if you don’t pay up, you will be taken to court and dealt with severely. However, when people refuse to pay - nothing happens.

It’s thought that around 40% to 50% of people who received letters have paid up, and maybe that’s enough for the operation to be profitable for Davenport. Taking people to court in the UK for such a small infringement is definitely unprofitable. Maybe this is the greatest indicator as to where these cases are going to end up when the defiant, penniless and innocent refuse to pay.

The reason these cases aren’t going to court is because the organisations handing out the threats simply can’t prove that the accused has done anything wrong!
