New Beginnings: Mcgriff WIlliams Insurance

New clients start today: Mcgriff Williams Insurance has decided to start a new campaign for online insurance quotes.

We’ll be providing a key marketing role with their new website: INSURENCY.com

They have the very latest in online quotes and are attempting to break into a heavily saturated market filled with big time players. We have our work cut out for us, that’s for sure. But we’re up to the challenge. We know we can dominate in markets across Florida – we’ve done it with plenty of other clients. The large insurance companies don’t have all the know-how you’d expect them to sometimes and because they’re so large they leave out smaller markets that don’t meet their margins – that’s our foot in the door so to speak. Once we gain a foothold then it’s only a matter of time before we start competing in larger markets such as Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, etc..

The work is daunting though.  So much to be done but we’re so glad to have them on board – and to have this opportunity to show them what Livewire can do. It’s not just great web design anymore – we are the SEO masters around here.

Leverage Browser Caching

When a webpage loads on your screen there are a lot of little pieces that have come together to create what you’re seeing. Your logo, other images, style sheets, javascript files are among some of the external resources a webpage might use to render itself on your screen.

Raven Tools

Took a look at Raven SEO tools today. Really, not all that impressed. They have a good price but it mostly looks like you’re just hooking up other services to be managed in one location. That’s valuable in and of itself, but not really what we’re looking for

HotOpponents Hack

We have seen this one a few times coming from WordPress but we have also seen it in Google Analytics code or simply in a header.php file. HotOpponents is a simple redirect script but really digs down and makes roots for itself throughout your website files and database. 

Eat More Protien

Meat in your website diet is needed – you’re probably in optimization atrophy … What is meat for your website? Content. Your site need fresh content added to it on a regular basis. Good content. Compelling content. But most of all, it need to be original content. That means
