The reports were well laid out and provided a focus for ongoing web development and e-marketing.”

Julie-Anne Houldey

The benefits of purchasing the report have well outweighed the investment! Many Thanks”

  ”A big thank you for your Website Optimisation Health Check Report. It was packed with brilliant ideas on how to engage learners and employers. 

Not only did you give us a comprehensive analysis of our college’s search engine rankings and comparisons with our main competitors, you also outlined recommendations on how to make SEO and online marketing work better for us. We look forward to working with you on the Online Marketing & Employer Engagement Programme…”

Amila Moslimani
Web Services Manager

 ”FEmarketing’s Website Optimisation Report gave us an independent baseline to work from that contained benchmarking and comparisons with our competitors.

Most importantly the report showed not only what was and was not working but also the steps to take to improve matters. If you are not a website “techy” this gives you high quality evidence to take your website forward.”

Stephen Drysdale
Marketing Manager
Hopwood Hall College

“Many thanks for a very useful webinar this morning. Your comments and suggestions, particularly about how we can better compete with other colleges in our area in search engine rankings, were extremely helpful.

I now hope to be able to implement many of your recommendations as we look to redevelop our site over the coming months.

Many thanks once again.”

Lucy Mountford
Marketing & PR Manager
Newcastle under Lyme College

“Thanks for the webinar, it came at the perfect time during redevelopment of our Training 4 Business employer website.

Even in just one hour you provided lots of evidence to support our plans and recommendations, and it will hopefully help the marketing team to develop a successful strategy that can be understood and adopted by all the concerned parties.

Optimising a website can be a huge task, so your help in maintaining focus on clear and effective objectives could be a great advantage!”

 ”Thanks for your helpful telephone feedback session. It was so good to hear your perspective on our website and your advice was more than welcome.

Your common-sense approach and easy fix solutions were just what we needed, with the limited resources we have to hand.

As you know, your ‘Seven Strategies’ guide has already been translated into an urgent action plan for us and you’ve inspired us to review our webpages with fresh insight and perspective”

Sally Ann Wilkinson
Marketing & Student Services Manager
Deeside College

 ”Thank you for your help and advice yesterday during what was a very informative and enjoyable feedback session. It is always very useful to have a fresh, independent view of how the college promotes itself.

Your suggestions were extremely helpful and will enable us to develop the functionality of the site whilst at the same time being conscious of our target audiences and keeping things simple, straightforward and yet comprehensive for them.

Again, thank you for your input yesterday which was extremely constructive and has given us a focussed agenda for the development of the college’s website.”

“Dear Simon

I wanted to thank you for all the time and helpful advice you have given. If only we had been in contact months ago I could have saved a lot of time.

Another positive aspect of our discussion was that however much I use these techniques every day you were able to point out a few more ideas that I had missed! I thought I had these techniques sorted but I’m not too old to learn or too proud to admit I have implemented the further ideas you offered me.

Thanks again for your help and advice Simon
