Qballyhoo marketing Dorset and Somerset - Guide to Advanced Search
General Searching
- All searches are case insensitive - i.e. the case of the characters is not important.
- MARKETING YEOVIL is the same as marketing yeovil
- You can use the '*' wild card to find a broader match
-
- world - will search for "world" and find titles that contain the WORD "world" anywhere in the title
- wor* - will find titles that contain words that START with "wor" (e.g. work, world, wordt, words, etc.)
- There isn't an "ends with" search
- Common words
-
- We ignore common words and characters such as where, the, how, and other digits and letters which slow down your search without improving the results.
Boolean Searching
- 'OR' Search
- To find pages that include either of two search terms, add an OR between the terms
- For example, here's how to search for web design in either yeovil or somerset
- web design yeovil OR somerset
- 'AND' Search
- To find pages that include both search terms, add an AND between the terms
- For example, here's how to search for marketing in yeovil and somerset
- marketing yeovil AND somerset

case studies
Case Study: NHS Contraception & Sexual Health, Dorset
What they wanted:
Promotion materials to help drive traffic c to the microsite www.keeplovesweet.co.uk to promote Chlamydia awareness amongst young
adults in Dorset.
What we did:
1. we identified key market statements and campaign messages
2. we developed brand identities to target both male and female markets
3. we researched ambient resources to use at events to attract the target market
4. we developed posters and flyers that dealt with the campaign messages in a sensitive manner so that they could still be used for a young audience
5. we developed an advertising campaign where results could be measured
Case Study: Engineering Company, JSJ Solutions Ltd
What they wanted:
JSJ Solutions wanted to win more business via the web, which meant they needed to update their existing website and attract more custom, specifically focusing on their core products.
The old site had images but hardly any targeted content and was really only being used as a static brochure – just to say they had a site.
What we did:
1. Asked them key questions about their industry and listened to what products they wanted to sell the most so that we could focus their keywords and phrases on them.
2. Obtained a good understanding of how their competitors worked and what they were doing.
3. Worked successfully with their existing web team to bring the project together, suggesting ways that the web team could provide more widgets and function on the site.
4. Researched and wrote content that pulled all the keywords together and made the site more relevant to the customer.
5. Researched and provided more stylised but relevant images so that the site looked professional. Where possible we used their existing images, optimised them and resized them so that they would download at a better speed.
6. Talked to the client about the project without using techie jargon and blinding them with science – and we learnt a lot about stainless steel fabricating too!
Case Study: Local Restaurant, Taste*
What they wanted:
Taste* Restaurant in Dorchester had an existing content-managed website that already had the correct look and feel for the restaurant but was not coming up in Google as the site had not been optimised. Also different people had updated the site, so images were not in standard places and the text was in different fonts.
Taste* needed a spring-clean of the website and training to ensure that the site was Search Engine Optimised and would be used correctly in the future.
What we did:
1. Researched the local Restaurant market and looked benchmarked where Taste* was in the organic Google rankings
2. Ran a wordtracker software program to find out what real people were typing into Google to find restaurants in the area.
3. Worked with the incumbent web team to find out how to best use all the functions on the site.
4. Bought stock images for some of the pages that needed them to give a very professional look and feel to the site.
5. Went through the site and standardised the layout and the fonts etc.
6. Provided training on updating the site and on how to optimise it so that customers could find them when they were looking at eating out in Dorchester.
7. Gave training on adding them to a Google map so that the restaurant’s directions came up when customers were searching.

She conducted some on-line market research for me and helped me to interpret the results which helped me to set a new, more viable direction for my company. I value her integrity and advice.”
Kath Gigg, KmG Management Consultants Ltd
“Qballyhoo is led by Drew who is a highly motivated and energetic marketer, she analyses the market and shows you the way. I have been lucky enough to work for Drew as a photographer and to have Drew work with me on 'First Women'. Drew can see the whole picture and she understands the more spiritual aspects of a concept as well as the practicalities. She is decisive, clear headed and brilliant at picking out the pearls in your ideas and converting them into a strong marketing message aimed at the right target audience”
Anita Corbin, First Women UK LTD
"When we first met Drew from Qballyhoo, we had very little idea of what we wanted our new logo & website to look like. By virtue of inspiration, hard work & infinite patience, she winkled out what we liked and translated it into a brand & website which we truly love & I know will serve us well. We all wear our 'fig' T-shirts & aprons with pride & lap up all the compliments which strictly speaking should go to Drew. Thank you so much."
