Aperture Design

Ending the week with two more photographers now enjoying the benefits of our managed hosting!
Shaving 6 seconds off one's Fully Loaded Time, and a massive 11 seconds off another!
With an average Time To First Byte (the time it takes your webserver to start sending data) of under 100ms as well as an inbuilt global Content Delivery Network, our platform is incredibly fast compared to shared hosting.

Today has partly been spent drawing geometric arrows..

Lots going on here at the moment! New sites for several people from digitalab's residency ticking away in the background, can't wait to show some of these off!
More people benefiting from our super-fast hosting, and meetings with a few local businesses about improving their online presence.
We are now fully booked for custom website builds until after the Summer, as we're taking some time off with the family too. But will be fitting in some smaller pieces of work and hosting migrations will still be available if you are looking for a faster webhost!

This years Residency organised by digitalab was fab, fantastic mix of speakers aimed at helping photographers advance their knowledge of both photography and the business/marketing side of things. As well as The Glass Narrator's fabulous talk about the importance of personal projects.
Karah is speaking again next year, and early bird tickets are on sale now. Incredible value for money considering how much knowledge there is to draw on at these events.
Get yourself booked on now!

Back at the desk after a fantastic few days sharing some knowledge of SEO, facebook marketing and landing pages that convert!
Huge thanks to digitalab for having me at The Residency. Was fantastic to meet so many amazing people and photographers.
Perfect mix of business related advice as well as photography and editing workshops.
... Great to catch up with Nina Mace Photography Training & Mentoring and Art Of The Portrait and I know they both shared a huge amount of knowledge in their classes.
And to finally meet the lovely The Glass Narrator, who after her first talk, I'm expecting big things of in the future!

Absolutely beautiful location for the Residency of the North, currently sitting outside with an amazing view getting ready for my talk this afternoon.
Fantastic to meet so many like-minded professionals, catch up with old friends and make some new ones!
Today I'm covering "landing pages that convert".
