Nicely done. When ever we video something like this it goes wrong but put the camera away and it goes smoothly. Sods law i guess.

Excellent work guys, well done

Helped the eyes, not sure they will help the head come morning Option 2 is probably the most future proof too considering FB do prefer everyone to be up to date with stuff. To delete someone: Settings > Banned Users (left hand side) > Click the drop down box and select 'People who like this' > click the cog and click remove! Interestingly i have just notice you can use this same cog to set page role admin too - so once you have your personal profile, like your own page and then log into the page account and use the cog too!

Ok so you have yourself a page not a profile. When i first set up mine you had to have a separate account to log into the page where as now its possible on one account - someone had a brainwave in FB hq there! You 'should be able' to navigate to someones page, like mine below, whilst logged into your page and still click like etc? You wont be able to see peoples personal profiles as a page only account though. ORRRRRRRRR If you go and set yourself up a new 'profile' for your person use. You can add yourself as page admin - while logged into your original page account - click settings - page roles - and add yourself in there? That way you can have the best of both worlds, personal profile for liking peoples stuff and personal stuff only, AND have your page which you will now be page admin for. You can keep your original page account open all the same as before. Hope this makes sense, its being written with slightly blurry eyes!

Taaadddaaaaaaa! Here i am Ok so sign up for a facebook account if you dont have one as per clown says using your personal name etc. Once you have logged in, somewhere on the left hand side of the screen will be 'Creat a page' - click it You will then be prompted with various menu's to best describe your page etc - for this use your business name! Once created you will need 25 likes or fans before you can set the short address URL as previously described. Make your content relevant and cool and people will share it, don't make it too formal as people think meeeh its too corporate. Your websites for corporate, your facebook is for coolness.

Hello again, Im assuming since your page has a short url now you have figured it out already? Looks much better and now you can say to people check us out on facebook.com/HoneyTreeSurgeonsLtd

Just one thing, with that many likes you are eligible for the short url for facebook. Go to About on your page logged in as admin and enter your desired url under Facebook Web Address so it can be http://www.facebook.com/Honey-Tree-Surgeons-Ltd instead of http://www.facebook.com/pages/Honey-Tree-Surgeons-Ltd/721807941248761

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Honey-Tree-Surgeons-Ltd/721807941248761 Correct URL for you my friend. Liked :-)

Glad you have found it all helpful :-) thats what it / we're here for! Give Trust a ring as they are straight talking. And I didnt know that Steve, but do now ! :-)

One would assume they would view it as your responsibility too? Whilst everyone is responsible for Heath and Safety in general on a site if one person is organising the job then its down to them to ensure that: All work at height is properly planned (Work At Height Regulations 2005), managed - MHSWR (Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations) and that the correct equipment is used for the job - PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations), and that their operatives are wearing PPE - (Personnel Protective Equipment Regulations). LOLER, COSHH, MHOR and noise all come into it too really. If everyone is self employed from a tax perspective, the one person who organises / plans / quotes for the job is the one responsible and as such should have employers liability cover. From my understanding there are a lot of grey areas but they are closing down on this all the time.

Another point - those quotes are only for £1m cover, most people expect £5m and further more £1m doesn't cover most possible outcomes? Depends on your target market also i guess??

Does Ariva and axa actually do arboricultural and forestry?? I used to be with Direct line before i started the tree surgery side and they couldnt take me on for covering tree surgery as it was too high risk for them. Check the small print and also work at hight limits??

If you are responsible for the workers health and safety, and you run the site then you need employers liability insurance for any labour, casual or permanent. You will if you are employing your son too as per above let alone anyone else. At the end of the day, pay for it, get it and your covered. I believe its worked out on the same percentage basis as normal liability insurance, so if you are doing 40%/30%/30% Landscaping/Fencing/Trees then the overall price will be lower than if you were doing 10%/10%/80%. Comes down to risk factors and risk profiling. Ring Trust insurance and ask for Cameron for a good price too !

I knocked one up out of 2"x2" timber front and back, simple and works. Throw a strap over to secure. A better version would be out of 2" L shapes angle iron so a ladder clamp could be added in too

Hey Tree LC Thanks for repinning a few of our pins today, i will follow you on on there later. Yes it sure is time consuming. I have recently just rebuilt our main website so will be adding more pins from that soon. It is starting to have a positive affect on the website statistics and traffic though so its worth having

I built ours from scratch using a cms called Drupal, similar to wordpress My provider is Easyspace in Scotland which are better than the ones i had previously who were affected by the floods in new orleans! Pay ya money and take ya pick when it comes to providers really

Ok so looking at the site from the front. I personally am not a fan of having to scroll to find content. The splash page may seem a good idea but its limiting on content. If you can engage a viewer instantly rather than making them click a link [services] to find out what you offer then they are more likely to get more results. Attached is a screen shot of the services page, now on that you can see a list of "What we offer" as almost a teaser so people will scroll down. On the front page there isn't anything other than a link to the [services] page to act as that teaser. Further more if the header was made smaller than the existing (See attached image which i hashed together) and made site wide including <front>, then you would display more than a teaser to the visitor, they would see proper content. Next, your links under [services] dont link to anything. To be compliant with accepted standards for world wide websites, links should go somewhere! (simple when you think about it). Links to nowhere confuse and frustrate users. Similarly links should have Alt tags, Title tags and the page they go to should be titled to the same, or similar as the link you just clicked. This all adds up to a good workflow which ranks well on google as it can see the flow without even the need of a sitemap! So, consider making your services menu available on the front page, bring the content up to the top, and make the links go somewhere with a good page for each (with pictures - people like pictures!!) then it will be rocking Theres more you can do but your head is probably hurting already!

Nice and simple site there mr B A few things i have noticed. Your gallery images are called in file names photo-33.jpg A better option would be making-trackway-with-digger.jpg as this would perform better in google image searches and images searches add towards your ranking on a normal website search also. Also the tags for the image 'title' read for photo-33.jpg reads 'photo 3' this could be also renamed 'Making trackway with digger in X' further improving the site rankings. Other than that its a good wordpress created site

Some good looking websites there chaps. Feel free to nick the FAQ's 'idea' as i found most of my competitors have them and it makes you look more pro i think, plus it avoids having to create pages for things like tpo info etc. I wrote all of the Q + A's myself. And yes i built the website too

Have updated our website this week with new improved SEO, pages, images etc Check it out at KENT Gardening & Tree Surgery | Kent Tree Surgeon | Kent Gardener

Thats a great one. I think people should do this more often, it makes something as boring as a boundary into a fun art piece. I found this brother and some other cool ones through google images.

I have a gas burner for chow and now a whistling kettle for a fresh brew, tea up

The last one with Reg was so funny my other half came through the house to look and and then looked at me funny. Glad you had a good christmas and looking forward to more vids J
