So we’re the new kids on the block. Well, mature kids in a new suit. Inevitably our competitors have been checking out the style and colour of our new underwear (mine are M&S boxers, dark blue spots on pale blue background).
But I wasn’t prepared for the analytics report this morning that served up a list of more than 20 agencies that have spent more than 15 minutes grazing the Speed site.

Oooh get you….people staying too long on your site eh? tsk….stop pouring over the analytics dashboard and get some work done
[...] But what about natural search rankings? Isn’t this good news for Speed Communications whose page currently ranks number one? (or rather, the old Rainier home page URL – this now asks browsers to click through to the new Speed home page).
