Company’s blog launched

The company blog has been launched without much fanfare – we need to see how it will help us connect with our clients better. You are welcome to vsit the blog here [ LINK REMOVED ]. Why I say “without fanfare” is because most Indian corporates still have no idea how important a blog is – I’m glad that at least I have a free hand to decide that this might be a good decision for this particular company.

[ IMAGE AND LINK REMOVED ]

To-do list for post-blog tasks:

  • List it on the major blog directories and search engines
  • Create a proper META tag to allow indexing
  • Populate the blogroll with companies that support this company and create a client blogroll as well
  • Put links to the blog from all my three blogs on design, business networking and marketing
  • Find a way to add the link to the blog in everyone’s company e-mail signatures
  • Send a company-wide e-mail to our national offices to inform them about the latest developments and to invite interested people to contribute to the blog
  • Create departmental categories and figure out useful keywords and tags for each

There will be more, and I will figure it out slowly.

Company’s website re-design

The name servers have been changed and I’ve made the switch from Network Solutions to Dreamhost [ Yay! ] But for some reason, the DNS has not been refreshed at my end – everyone outside the company network can see the new one-page website [ LINK REMOVED ] but neither of the computers within the company network show the new website – I still see the old setup – have been calling up friends to check with them whether the new page looks ok and whether it matches the screenshot that I have sent to them [ from my Dreamweaver preview icon smile Companys website re design asidebrands Brand naming & Logo design by Naina ].

It’s still a one-page website where people can download the company’s corporate brochure, the company’s one-page profile and the design studio portfolio and can get in touch with me via e-mail. It uses one main graphic from the brochure to create an identity consistency and uses minimal copy.

I also intend to get the blog started asap!
