So Summer is really here, with Wimbledon kicking off (or should that be racqueting off?!!) this week, and long evenings to enjoy. What's happened since last month, well we've had our attention caught with the new Google development, and we've been busy putting together our IRUN blended search program...you can read more about them both in this months newsletter:

Google Wave

From the official Google Blog:  A “wave” is equal parts conversation and document, where people can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

Google wave could grow into something that we can’t live without, so we’ll be watching the development very closely… in the interim there is a video you can watch which tells you everything you’ll need to know.

 

Our advice? get yourself a very big cup of tea and one and a half hours of uninterrupted time to take a look.

Go to Our Blog to find the video

Blended Search - the new way to be effective online

For years now we have been looking at the activities that it takes to be successful on-line. Having a big Google footprint is great, it might get you on the first page of Google, but actually these days its all about having multiple footprints in all of the ways that Google will present your data. (not everyone will search for text - ask a lady that's getting married and you'll know they trawl through photos and images of the best cakes and dresses...and most expensive!!...they can find) 

At IRUN we call this approach a 'blended search' as we have to keep up with the ever demanding visitor experience it is only through deploying this strategy that we think you'll maintain and grow your internet success.
