7 Social Media Icons That Look Cute

Website for every business is a must. Whether you run a one-man show or a full fledge industry, you can’t ignore the effect of Internet on your business. There are only few good firms that dominate the London web design scenario. 

So when you get your London web design company work on the backend programming of your site, don’t forget to ask them to make your pages social media active by including these icons -

The Latte Feel

Remember Twitter and Facebook signs in a coffee cup? The current latte selection is supported by only four sites – Digg and Stumbleon are the rest two, and really look good on a food blog or website.

The Ancient Look

Vintage is always in. You can’t deny the attractiveness of these textures that draws the eye. They’d make a great fit for an automobile site or blog.

Go Green

Yeah! I like the ‘green’ social media icons too as these save the hassle of declaring separately on the blog that I love nature and its plants. Try the grass icons of Twitter, Facebook and Digg. If you don’t know how to put them, a London web design company can perhaps help.

Use Vectors

Good to use if you plan to insert more than 5 social media icons on your blog or web page. They’re simple but very clean, and with the slightly raised look add a fine dose of texture.

Solve the mystery

Have you seen the ‘puzzle pieces’ of common social icons? If your site is all about mysteries or puzzles, it makes sense to use them.

Cushion to make you comfortable

How about snuggling up with Facebook? /nah! Not a very good idea but the cushion social media icons do look good if your site is about home furnishing and you wouldn’t find many web design companies in London which can embed it with elegance on your site.

Let Picasso share his magic

Had Digg been a Spanish invention, you would have seen Picasso’s effect on its logo long before. Well, Facebook and LinkedIn have Picasso’s effect too and offer special icons that can be used by sites dealing in paintings or other artefacts.

Indigo SEO: A successful case study

SEO or search engine optimisation is a tricky business. Typically it targets different types of search, which includes local search, phrase specific search, image search, and industry-specific vertical search. It is the tool that ensures a good website presence of a web site.

As the latest Internet marketing strategy, it takes into consideration the methodology that search engines follow to index web pages according to the keywords people use to search something particular. Optimizing web pages mainly involve editing the text on it and sometimes modifying the HTML coding associated with it. This increases the relevance of specific keywords and pushes the indexing activities of search engines for that particular page or site.

With the kind of traffic it can get to your site, many companies have started making the budget for this kind of marketing as well. The optimization projects are carried by SEO firms on behalf of their clients and if the company is big, it may hire full time professionals to perform on-house SEO services. It in itself has become an industry and organisations that got into it initially are reaping huge benefits out of it.

Many companies offer improved search engine rankings but choosing the one which can give you the best return on investment and delivers on promises is difficult. Therefore there are very few authentic success stories on search engine optimization on the web and here is one that I have researched and really liked:

> North London Motorcycle Training
www.northlondon-mct.co.uk

· SEO done by: www.indigoideas.co.uk

· Business Challenge
North London Motorcycle Training offers tuition from CBT to Advanced Rider Training. The company had a website but was unable to tap the complete market. Like other websites, their content was also focused on everything under the sun and had no keyword specific text. The visibility with the search engines such as Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ask was poor and the site failed to register itself within the first few pages.

· Solution offered
Indigo deployed its people to rewrite the text in a search engine friendly tone and uploaded new pages to the site. Apart than that it worked continuously on selected phrases and optimised them to get best results. Appropriate keyword tags were used across each webpage which increased keyword links throughout the website. The site currently ranks 1 for the chosen keywords, one of which is CBT London North.
