new portfolio / web design site
April 27th, 2008
i’ve started to take my website design more seriously and brought my portfolio website bang up to date with a more business like approach to my freelancing. previously it was a bit more casual in it’s content and copy, i also didn’t do too much in the way of promoting the site – there wasn’t even any meta tags or a sitemap submission to google to my eternal shame!
so i’ve updated, pruned and rewritten everything on the site. i’m also going to invest in a little advertising, both locally in the free newspaper and with google adwords. it should be a nice experiment as the one thing i did do correctly with the site as to add google analytics so i can track the before and after statistics.
here’s the link: www.martinlucas.co.uk
along with my own site i’m trying to organise my online brand, the avatar you see on the right is a cartoon version of me, complete with headphones – this appears on my facebook, my twitter, msn instant messenger and all the forums that i contribute to, so hopefully you might see him popping up around the world wide web and know that it’s me.
