Website Marketing and Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Gone are the days when you could just throw a website online, stuff it with "meta tags" and the masses would come a-knockin'. Nowadays everyone and their grandmother's mule has a website, and with that kind of competition you'll need to give a bit of thought to marketing your site.
But forget obsolete methods such as meta tag stuffing and scams such as submitting your site to "millions of search engines".
Our Google ranking...has shot up recently and is now at #4 for 'British Commonwealth Stamps' and #1 for 'British Philatelists'...That's great news for us, and I look forward to the possibility that the #4 ranking will go even higher in the next few weeks or months.

Success Stories
For highly competitive keywords, ongoing work is required. Using a combination of constant content addition through a blog, an aggressive link-building campaign with relevant websites, and search engine optimization, Crunch42 got the rankings for the word codex up to number three out of 15 million competing pages for healthfreedomusa.org. This is a huge improvement over its previous ranking in the 100s, and is notable as it's a one-word keyphrase. But it took a year of time and effort, and was helped greatly by the fact that the site owner is a prolific content creator.
For less competitive keywords, Crunch42 can routinely get top 10 rankings relatively quickly and with relatively little effort, especially if the keyphrases are location based. The examples below were all for keyphrases and variations requested by the clients and did not require ongoing work beyond the initial search engine optimization (rankings as of early 2008).
