Children 1st - 120 years of helping children
CHILDREN 1ST is one of Scotland's leading child
welfare charities. For
more than 120 years it has been working to give
every child in Scotland
a safe and secure childhood. Children 1st support
families under stress, protect
children from harm and neglect, help them recover
from abuse and promote
children's rights and interests.
This year Spear Connect were happy to donate a
website development prize for Children 1st's May Ball

Inverclyde Biologicals new site (see first item on
right).
If you or your company is looking to participate in a
worthy cause, look no further than Children 1st.

Inverclyde Biologicals provide a range of
specialist
fluid reagents for use in blood banks, hospitals and
universities all over the world from their base in

They are supporters of the Children 1st

Edinburgh

Their new site is now a search engine friendly,
standards compliant, accessible platform that

| The keyword misconception |
| |
Recently a lot have people have asked us about
keywords and their importance to search
engines.
Keywords phrases are important. They are
the
phrases that you should identify as those that your
potential customers might type into a search engine.
It's important to get those phrases in the 'copy' used
on your web-site in the right proportion - not too
much and not too little. It's also important to get
the phrases used in links that point to your
website.
The misconception about keywords is that
they can
be stuffed or hidden in 'meta' tags or invisible text as
a magical way to get high search engine rankings.
This will not help on the important engines these
days and could even get your site banned if a search
engine thinks you are trying to cheat!
So give up ideas of quick fix shortcuts when it comes
to keywords and
- Write good copy for your pages with keywords in
them
- Get links pointing to your site that use your
preferred keywords

We are members of BNI, the most
successful business networking group in the world.
Our group meet once a week to exchange business
leads between the members. The thing is that
although we do business between the members,
most of the leads come from other people and
businesses that the members know - so we all get
business and expand our circle of contacts at the
same time.
It doesn't work for every business but it's certainly
worked
for us. Our group is currently looking to recruit new
members for a range of cateories.
If you'd like to meet like-minded business people
each week and get more business leads, come along
and visit our group to see what it's like.
Just give us a call at 0131 478 2606 for more details.
