Escape the ‘Blue Monday’ Blues and Head to the Sunshine State

After the festive holiday celebrations end, looking forward to starting a New Year in January can seem a dim prospect. In fact, Monday, 21 January is scientifically proven to be the unhappiest day of the year for the majority of Brits and has been aptly dubbed ‘Blue Monday’.

But as the festive cheer wanes, sunny prospects await. With year-round sunshine, all new attractions and abundant deals throughout the destination, there’s no better time to plan a holiday to Orlando, the World Capital of Smiles. In addition, Visit Orlando has launched a brand new Orlando Holiday Planning Tool, helping Blue Monday daydreams turn from a fantasy to reality.

The website, orlandoholidayplanning.com, offers a wealth of ‘need to know before you go’ planning tips for visitors.

Glasgow-Based UK SEO Agency Expands Into USA

In the midst of all the doom and gloom during the current economic downturn, it’s unusual to hear about a local company going against the grain. Micrositez are a Glasgow-based Digital Marketing Agency specialising in SEO, Web Design, Link Building and PPC and were established in 2004.

In the UK, the award-winning SEO company is based in Glasgow’s Digital Media Quarter in The Hub complex (opposite BBC Scotland) with a London regional office at One Canada Square in Canary Wharf. The ambitious team at Micrositez currently manage SEO, Pay Per Click and Website Design Campaigns for a growing portfolio of UK based big brand names, mid-sized and start-up companies.

In early 2011, Micrositez decided to expand into the US market where they had already won clients in recent years from both Glasgow and London, creating 40 new jobs. “Expansion into the USA allows us to better service our current US clients and actually having a state of the art office space in the heart of Orlando’s Hi-Tech Corridor will allow us to scale up our new US client wins,” says Micrositez CEO Scot Crone.

While most small businesses which are being hit hard by the current economic conditions are laying off staff and or closing branches (or at least maintaining a safer holding pattern), Micrositez seem determined to blaze their own trail. In the emerging Digital Marketing Agency space Micrositez have emerged in recent years as one of the key players in Search Engine Optimisation (SEO UK) and are one of those businesses worth keeping an eye on.
