Directory Spy

Tuesday, October 24th, 2006

Directory Spy is a blog that is written for people who run a directory.  The posts on it are quite informative and even educational about the whole web directory scene. The site uses a good looking template and it is quite easy to read.  The Writers style tells you that they know a thing or 2 about the subject.

With regular posts - at least  one a week and sometimes 2 or more a day, if you run a directory, or even if you do directory submissions you will find some good, up to date info on all things directory. With posts on topics such as new phpLD templates, hints on doing directory submissions and Directory Categories, anyone who owns and runs a directory will get something from this blog. Don’t just read the blog entries or you will miss some of the good resources this site has to offer - take a peek at the Directory Lists as well.

I was asked to do a review of the site and ended up spending nearly an hour reading back on all the old posts - as someone who does own a couple of small niche directories, I really appreciated the content of this blog, I will visit this one often myself.

Marcell

Sunday, October 22nd, 2006

Marcell are Professional Make-up artists who are based in Sydney Australia. Their mission is to accentuate your beauty and bring out your best. By ustilising the skills and experience of their professional team who are passionate about what they do they will deliver glamourous looks for any occasion. It does not matter if you are making a movie or Televison show or a bride wanting the best of Wedding Makeup done on your special day, Marcell can help.

The website uses a distinctive pink for the navigation. It is not a colour often seen on a website, but it works well with the site design. The site is obviously set up to help advertise and promote their business and the information presented about the products and services offered look to be complete and easy to understand. By using attractive graphics the site is not only functional but visually appealing.

A lot of websites that promote a company or business tend to only have info about the company and services and very little else. Not so with Marcell, their Makeup Tips provide information for anyone who is interested in makeup. A lot of companies don’t give much back, but this is not the case here with articles on a lot of topics.

I know that not a lot of people are interested in make-up, but maybe you run a complimentary business such as a modelling agency or photographer. They are always looking to partner with other businesses, so why not take a look.

Discount Click

Friday, October 20th, 2006

Anyone who has a website that is part of a business will want it to be recognised. Getting your site noticed can be hard work.  Discount Click is an online Marketing service that provides several services in the area of Search engine marketing.  They provide all sorts of SEO and consultancy services to help you get your site noticed. Most people will simply get their website created, submit it to a few search engines and hope for the best.  If this is your strategey, then your competition who uses a range of techniques - like those provided by Discount click will be the ones on the front page of the search results, while your site is nowhere to be seen. 

The services they can provide even extend to Mailing List management to send out your newsletter and marketing information to your opt-in email list of your clients. One of my pet peeves is looking online for something and not seeing any sort of prices. I was pleasantly surprised to see a price list of their services listed.

I can hear you ask “why should I trust these people to market my website”.  Well, Let me tell you this, I asked myself the same question and did a couple of searches on Search engines. I was pretty impressed, using a few different searches, I was easily able to find their site on the front page of the search engine results for some very competitive searches. If they can do this for their own website, then they can probably do the same thing for anyone else - including you.

Miley Cyrus

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

Everyone has heard of Billy Ray Cyrus and his “Achy, Breaky Heart” but not everyone would be aware that he has an attractive and talented Daughter - Miley Cyrus.  Miley has followed in her Father’s footsteps into the entertainment industry.  She is the star of the Disney channel action comedy “Hanna Montana”.

 Destiny Hope “Miley” Cyrus, is not just an actress, but a talented singer who already has a record deal for 4 albums.  It will be a case of who is opening for who when the Cyrus Family goes on tour!

If you want all the latest news and photos or just want to chat in the Forums with other Miley fans then look no further than the Fansite.  The website is quite attractive and easy to navigate and the integrated photo gallery looks great as well.  If you already love her, or even if you have never heard of her this site will have something for you.
