The second website is for Simply Maternal, who are experiencing an unusually long delay is seeing their website listed by Google.

This is where this blog post comes in – I want to investigate how much value Google places in my website by linking to these sites and monitoring what effect it has on search rankings. I’ll report back with the results in a few weeks.

What our
customers say

"I travel the world with my job as a public speaker, I teach businesses all about effective marketing. Whenever I'm asked for a recommendation on a good website designer I always refer them to MB Web Design. So far MB have catered to over FIFTY of my clients, and every one of them has been pleased."

Gareth Owen, marketing consultant, London

"For less than half the annual cost of my Yellow Pages advert, MB Web Design made me a website and arranged search engine marketing that brings me new customers every week. The website had paid for itself within the first month!"

Mark Richards, tradesman, Llanelli

"We commissioned a new website from MB Web Design several years ago and we're blown away at our performance in the search engines, which allows us to make most of our sales online. We are a family company but our website ranks better than major national chains for our target market."

Richard Price, Quality Carpets Direct
