New Look IBD Home Page
The new look IBD Home Page is now up and running, we hope you like it. We have also revamped most of the links pages and added a clickable map. Some areas, such as the Highland region of Scotland, we have had to break down into Counties, and you can still search by Country, then County then Town as usual.
We have also added the Google search engine specific to IBD in response to customer feedback. Although not perfect, it works really well so thanks to Google for that. People landing on the IBD Home Page can now search for say - Aga cookers - returning 1 result, or say - bed and breakfast which returns four Pages! You can also narrow your search by searching for say bed and breakfast Cambridgeshire which produces four results instead of four pages.
We welcome all feedback whether positive or negative. What do you think about the new look County pages of Bedfordshire and Cheshire? Although the task ahead is quite daunting, we will roll out this new look over the coming months and extend it to the Towns as well.
Internet Advertising Spend to Grow Hugeley
Internet Advertising spend is set to climb by 85 per cent over the 2006 to 2009 period, ClickZ reports.
According to ZenithOptimedia figures, online video and local search will be the primary drivers for this growth. Until 2009, the company expects an annual growth rate in internet advertising of 23 per cent.
Jonathan Barnard, ZenithOptimedia's head of publications, said that it was impossible to predict what may happen in the online sector.
He noted that advertisers who only have a small market in which they sell can also benefit from online advertising. This clearly shows that smaller businesses would be fools not to get into online advertising.
