Negative Matrimony

Is it any coincidence that as the credit crunch bites and negative equity is around us again that the divorce rate is at its lowest for 26 years?

Figures just released show the divorce rate fell to 1.19% in 2007 down from 1.22% in 2006.

Could the main reason for this being couples not being able to sell  their homes and therefore having to stay together, where as previously they would have divorced?

Is negative equity slowing down the divorce rate by creating negative matrimony ?

MyHammer.co.uk

Watching a bit of daytime television today I saw an advert for a new website MyHammer.co.uk, it was a nice advert so I went and had a look at the site.

It appears to be a site where people can post little jobs which they want doing and tradesmen can reply and quote for the work.

It’s in Beta testing at the moment and appears to be the UK version of my-hammer.de run by MY-HAMMER AG

What I find interesting is the fact it is in Beta, only has 159 jobs available in the UK, but that they are already  advertising on a main tv channel.

I can only assume the German version is very succesful and they hope it will be the same in the UK. 

One to keep an eye on http://www.myhammer.co.uk/

Mas Webdesign Directory

I was contacted by the webmaster of Mas Webdesign Directory asking me if he could use one of my old articles about my Top 10 SEO Tips on his site.

I had a quick look around his site and although it is new, so therefore not particularly content rich, I liked what I saw. He had already set me an account up so I could submit more business listings in to his directory and articles in to his articles section, so I will hopefuly be adding more soon.

It looks well worth a visit to anybody who wants to submit a business article or anybody who just wants to add a listing in to the directory.

BBC Business News Headlines

I finaly got around to setting up a feed to display the latest BBC Business News Headlines within my directory yesterday.

It is currently set up to display the latest 10 business news stories from the BBC and also displays a brief snippet from each story.

Christmas Party Venues

With the kids going back to school next week it makes you realise Christmas is just around the corner, with this in mind I have just updated the Christmas Party Venues section on a party venues website that I maintain.

What many people don’t realise is that a good christmas party venue can often be fully booked at least 12 months in advance and that finding a nice venue to hold your staff Christmas Party isn’t as simple as it sounds.

That’s where the services of a good venue finder comes in, and surprisingly, you don’t even have to pay for this service! The reason being, many venues allow for the cost of marketing in the price of the venue, and when a venue finder brings them the clients it means they haven’t had to pay any marketing costs.

Another reason for using the services of a party venue finder is the fact they often know the most suitable venue for you just from taking a brief of your requirements, this saves time searching through numerous venues which to the untrained can be like searching for a needle in a haystack.

One more reason a venue finder is a must when looking for your ideal party venue is the fact a good venue finder has strong buying power. You may phone a venue asking about availability to be told it is fully booked, a good venue finder can make that same call and miraculously that previously full booked venue suddenly has space available.

To make use of the Morris Conferencing free venue finding service contact 0870 162 4909 be quick though Christmas is just around the corner.
