When we started to work with Andy Haddleton at GIG, our website had a single entry in Google way down on page 18.  On top of that, the copy on the pages was a bit dry.

Since he has done the SEO for our site, we are on Page 1 for many keywords and our copy now has a bright, relaxed but professional tone – something that reflects how we like to do business.

On top of that, he keeps us informed about the frequent changes in Internet marketing and explains things in plain English so I understand what needs to be done.

He is more than just SEO and provides us with a broad range of online marketing ideas and encourages us, in his easy –going style, to be more confident about marketing especially on the Web.

I would thoroughly recommend Andy at GIG to anyone that wants to improve their marketing especially their online presence.  Any small business can benefit from talking to Andy.

I am a technically challenged person with extremely limited computer skills who recently entered the professional arena. I chose a new profession that one day will be totally dominated by websites and other social media.

I felt the need to get up to speed not only with my understanding of computers, but with as many aspects of high profile advertising as possible.

I was fortunate enough to meet Andrew who specialises in Internet strategy and optimising site positioning on Google. Andrew built a website for me that not only has a point of difference but is easy to navigate around.

Andrew has been extremely informative and patient with me; he has been more than generous with his time explaining “how and why” and encouraging me to get to know my site in order to have complete control. He has made it clear to me he is only a phone call away for any SOS I might have.

Thank you Andrew you have been a pleasure to work with, a wonderful teacher and you are extremely competent at what you do.

After hearing from very satisfied clients who had engaged Andy’s services I decided it was time I found out more.

I was pleased with the design of my website which I had used effectively as a reference point for prospective and existing clients. To date however I had only had one “hit” of enquiry from it in 12 months.

Andy took me through his easy to follow audit process then presented me with some options to enhance my marketing message and get me to page 1 of GOOGLE.

It was an effortless process for me then , as once I had chosen my options  Andy liaised with my website “hostess” to implement the changes, all done within the week. So it was seatback in the upright position and on with business.

The results were immediate with 2 new hits in as many weeks who were prospects looking for my specific services in sales coaching; both saying they found me at the top of page 1 on GOOGLE.

The value for me then was that converting the leads into business was quicker and easier as the prospects had already found their solution and for them it was just about meeting me to discuss how we would work together.

I would highly recommend Andy’s services to anyone who is similarly challenged in the marketing and technology arenas and are looking to optimise their website’s capability.

His service and delivery are efficient and effective and…he’s a really nice bloke!

“As the importance of Local Search in the weird & wonderful world of SEO grows, Andrew is a talented specialist and a “BS-Free Zone”. He clearly knows what he is talking about and I would not hesitate to recommend any web owner or developer to talk to him if Local Search matters to them (and it should)”

Finally -  thank you, thank you, thank you, to Andrew Haddleton for making our website slowly start to get some amazing traffic and for fine tuning our content to increase search engine rankings.  For the technologically illiterate such as myself, it’s wonderful to finally meet a great geek who actually speaks English as well as html code.
