SEO James is even more of a digital marketing agency these days with all of us working from home. Like you, we’re all doing our best to stay safe – and stay sane.
If you were to ask us what we’ve been searching for online (when we’re not busy trying to help our clients navigate these unchartered waters, that is) you might get answers like, “barbecue takeout near me,” “jigsaw puzzles” and “cocktail recipes using apple juice.”
The world of online searches, SEO and internet marketing has definitely changed.
