Training

At Noisy Little Monkey, we’re an honest and open web design agency that is genuinely interested in making the web work for you. We know that, in order for the formula to be effective, you need to be continually evaluating your website’s success and making tweaks when and where appropriate.

Although we are more than happy to manage this ongoing process for you, we also accept that you may wish to bring this in house for strategic or budgetary reasons. On that basis, we provide training on all of the following to allow you the tools and knowhow to manage it yourselves.

SEO Training

You don’t have to be a technical wizard to understand the concept of SEO, so, after our training, you should be able to manage the process yourself, as long as you have the time!

You’ll learn:

• How search engines work
• How you can make them work for you
• Examples of search engine friendly sites
• The top ten checks and changes your site needs.

Social Networking

Social Networking is still a relatively new phenomenon so we know that many of you will be slightly baffled and nervous about using it. Don’t be! We’ll talk you through the processes, and you’ll soon be in the swing of things.

You’ll learn:

• The importance of link building
• How to measure your site's Google Page Rank
• How to set up and use a business Blog
• How to set up and use a Twitter profile
• How to set up and use a Facebook profile
• How to set up and use discussion forums.

Google Adwords

Google Adwords play a key role in driving traffic to your site and, ultimately, generating more sales/enquiries. Ideally, you’ll have a good understanding of Search Engine Optimisation before you get to grips with this, but that’s no problem, we’ll just do the SEO training first!

You’ll learn:

• How Google AdWords work
• How to set up an optimised campaign
• How to monitor and improve your campaign

We’ll also provide you with explanations of common technical terms and what they mean to you, such as 'click through rates', 'impressions' and ‘conversions'.

Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a free service that shows you how many people have visited your site, how they found it, what they looked at, where they live, where they exited your site and how long they stayed there. It’s got lots of pretty graphs and maps and not unlike Wigan, there are also a lot of bars and pies. Unlike Wigan, the bars and pies in Google Analytics are charts, not breakfast, lunch and tea.

Good stuff. However, there is a knack to finding the useful info and using it to identify what works and what needs improving or removing on your website.

You’ll learn:

• How to use the main reports
• How to manipulate them so they tell you what you want to know
• How to use Google Analytics to improve the performance of your website

What a jolly decent bunch we are! Not only will we do a fantastic job for you (however large or small), we’ll also provide you with comprehensive training. Now, that’s got to be worth picking up the phone and calling us now!
