Year-end website audit: a checklist before 2027

• Thursday, 5th November 2026 •

 

Year-end is when most companies review sales, costs and plans. One thing is almost always forgotten: the website. It works “well enough”, so nobody checks it, yet it is the first place a customer looks after they Google your name. We suggest a simple ritual: once a year, ideally in November or…

What on earth is MCP, and why should I care?

• Thursday, 29th October 2026 •

 

If you’ve been reading about AI lately you may have spotted three letters cropping up everywhere: MCP.

Is my website ready for AI search?

• Thursday, 15th October 2026 •

 

Not so long ago, getting found online meant climbing a list of ten blue links. These days a growing number of people ask an AI assistant instead and read a summary of the answer. If your website is going to be part of that answer, it needs to be easy for machines to understand as well as pleasant…

Website Speed and Core Web Vitals: Why a Slow Site Loses Customers

• Wednesday, 26th August 2026 •

 

The behaviour of a user who lands on a local business’s website is brutally simple.

A portfolio on a service business website: how to show your work

• Sunday, 23rd August 2026 •

 

Owners of service businesses often put a lot of energy into describing what they do: extensive texts about the offer, lists of services, assurances of quality. Meanwhile, a customer who lands on the site, before reading anything, is looking for an answer to one simple question: show me what you…
