You know you need SEO when:


  • Your competitors have never heard of you.
  • Your boss thinks a search engine is a mountain rescue helicopter.
  • The majority of your clients communicate with you by post.
  • Your corporate website includes the legend “.angelfire”.
  • Your marketing budget is entirely spent on printing coupons on the back of bus tickets.
  • You have no clients in their twenties, thirties or even forties.
  • Your IT worker leaves for a job in McDonalds because they want more of a challenge.
  • Your marketing executive has taken to drink.
  • Your sales figures resemble a graph plotting Gordon Brown’s popularity.
  • You think the word blog is something to do with the Flower Pot Men.
