Google Reviews

Posted on by studio

A Google review is an online review left by your clients that relate to a service you provided them or simply because they like you Ahhh :). A Google review allows any prospective customer to understand a little more about your company by reading the feedback of others.

Are Google Reviews Important? Hell yeah!

Google reviews are important because generally, a potential client will choose a business with reviews over a business with none. In addition, the little stars next to your business name look fab!

Google is now incorporating Facebook, Yell, Yelp and other reviews to a companies business listing. This allows potential clients to see what people have said across multiple platforms.

CSS and the headache that is Absolute Positioning

Posted on by admin

We’ve all had that moment where we think we know where the absolute positioned div will end up, hit the F5 key and it’s disappeared and it’s somewhere that seems completely nonsensical. Absolute position can be a great tool for those speciality elements that need to overlay another image (think of a “On Sale” stamp).

“Cheating” your way to fitness

Posted on by admin

After reading the “Can you cheat your way to fitness?” Article on the BBC this morning, it sparked a bit of a reaction in my head. Summed up the article is saying that you are supposed to get in around 150 minutes of exercise a week and from there you can get around 110 minutes from doing chores around the house. My first reaction was a little bit of anger in regards to saying its fine for people not to get out and exercise and try a healthier lifestyle.

Google AdWords to Ban Toy Guns.

Posted on by admin

This is a first for me really, having my hobbies and interests cross into my work life. Being a Web developer it’s my job to keep up to date with the latest industry news and events; while this isn’t breaking news it is something that i’ve been thinking about for a few weeks now to see how I sit with the situation. I am an avid airsfoter; what is “airsoft” I hear you say, well in very simple terms it is essentially paintballing but instead of paintballs you fire plastic BBs. It is a sport of honour as obviously you won’t have massive sploges of paint all over you. Now with this sport you are using Real Imitation Firearms (RIFs) and for obvious reasons there are certain regulations and laws. You can’t just walk in off the street and buy a RIF, you have to have valid defence to purchase such a gun unless it is coloured 51% in a bright colour (normally orange or green).

Our web and graphic designer Rob has just recently got married to his long time partner in crime Micheala; this saw the entire Juice Creative and Ebstar crew fly down the M56 to Anglessey in Wales for a weekend of celebrating and good times. Rob is always spouting about how beautiful Anglessey is but until you actually go there and see the views you can never really appreciate it.

Local Ski group gets a website renovation.

Posted on by admin

Our web developer Ross is a keen skiing enthusiast and he takes his holidays with a local group of around 80 people. As you can imagine organizing a group of that many and trying to get all the information around to everyone can be a nightmare, previously they had a very primitive free website from one of those generic website builders. In short, it wasn’t very good; but it served its purpose.
