Improving Website Content “Share-ability”

People these days have a very short attention span, especially when it comes to reading on the web.  You may have spent hours writing that 2,000 words for your "About Us" page on your website only to discover that the page has an average visit time of 15 seconds.  Hmmm, that’s not quite enough time to have read until the end.

You need to create content that is both interesting and easy to share in order to survive in the wonderful world of the web.  Here’s how…

The website design

The web design concept follows the style of their branding and stationery. The layout is clean and simple with an emphasis on product images and special listings from the shopping cart. Central is the main content area with room for an intro followed by the specials/product listings. Below this is the news area and shopping cart information.

Merry Christmas from Nutwork Web Design

Nutwork Christmas

2010 has been an amazing year for Nutwork.

Despite being only our second year of existence (under the Nutwork banner that is), we have now clearly established ourselves as one of the premier web companies in WA. We're immensely proud of this. During the year, we moved from a drab Subiaco office to our great modern open plan studio in Claremont. Our clients have told us they love the casual atmosphere and our high tech gadgets!

In 2010 we delivered almost 100 websites and generated millions of page views via our specialist SEO and online marketing services. You don't need to be a web technician to realise that quantity of page views generates some serious sales numbers for our clients.

Something we're particularly proud of is that we have been selected by several large industry associations to be the trusted web company of choice for their members. Tourism Council WA (TCWA), Association of Mining and Exploration Companies (AMEC), Engineering and Automotive Training Council (EATC) and the Small Bar Association (SBA) are all happy customers of ours.

Our year, however, would not have been such a success without the help, trust and loyalty of our great clients, business partners and friends. We'd like to thank you all and wish you a brilliant Christmas and New Year and look forward to seeing you all again in 2011.

Please note that we’re closing over XMAS but our studio will re-open on January 10th 2011.

Adam, Steve, Darrell, Colleen, Alex, Oli and of course, Coby the Nut
