Water your Plants
How often do you water your plants? How often do you update your website?
If you aren’t updating your website at least once a week then you are killing your search engine ranking.
Search engine ranking feeds off of fresh, frequently updated content. Static, unchanged content will make your rank wither away.
So feed your site some fresh content so it can thrive and if you need help devising a plan or making the updates, give slographicarts a call.

I thought I’d share this resource for royalty-free images, Fotolia. This is a great source and program for my graphic and web design friends. They offer a free subscription for us design bloggers.
jamba what?
Anyone notice what is going on at Jamba Juice?
New offerings in the form of Hot beverages like tea and coffee, mini pizzas (flatbread). What happened to the juice? I suppose they are trying to keep business flowing in the Winter months but this form of line extension is likely to fail. How many of us go there for the unappetizing pretzels and other baked goods? They should know by now that their baked goods offerings are a loss. They are known for fruit juice smoothies, not coffee.
I am a big fan of Jamba Juice for what it is known for, smoothies. And unless Jamba Juice is going to change it’s name to Jamba, it should drop the coffee, the tea, the baked goods and flatbreads, the pre-made sandwiches, the non-juice products, etc. etc. and go back to it’s roots, Juice.
In the Winter months, instead of non-juice items like coffee and tea, offer just juice instead of frozen smoothies. Why not introduce juice concoctions from vegetables? or spirulina or other superfood juice blends?
Jamba, please bring back the Juice.
Photo Editing
I recently modified a wedding photo in Adobe Lightroom converting the photo to black & white as well as some exposure, contrast, saturation and brightness edits then edited the photo again in Photoshop to retain color in the flower bouquet.
This is a pretty subtle, basic sample of my skills but I thought I’d share it to illustrate the beauty in simplicity. Give me a call if you have photos you need to edit whether it’s separating people or objects from backgrounds or color, sepia, black & white modifications.
