Welcome to my Blog!

  Hi! My name is Ciaran Kavanagh and this is my first ever blog post, its all very unusual to me. A few things to know about me are I am from Borris in Co.Carlow. I am twenty one years old and I am currently in my fourth and final year of Bachelor of Business in SETU. I love attending college so this year will be strange to me as I am nervous to graduate! I chose the accounting stream last year and this year will be similar to last year, hard and very exam based. My favourite hobbies is sports! I love watching, talking about and playing sports. My favourite sport is soccer. My favourite team is Chelsea, even though they haven't been very good recently 😂                                                             The module I am writing this blog for is Digital Economy and from what I've grasped so far is we will be learning abou...

E-Commerce & Internet Technologies

Hi Everyone, in this weeks blog, I will be reviewing online platforms that can be integrated into a website to elevate a business's engagement in E- Commerce. After reviewing these platforms, I will be recommending online platforms for three different business, A gym, a new clothing boutique and a Cafe. These recommendations are intended to increase the businesses growth and software.🖧

A New Gym          

I would recommend https://www.vagaro.com/ to a start up gym. They are a web based solution for fitness centres to promote their services and connect to their customers through their website. As its a start-up gym, they can avail of Vagaro's email marketing feature to bulk promote their services. They can also make a personalised website hosted by Vagaro and customize it with their service menu, pricing etc. 💪


A New Clothing Boutique            

For a new clothing boutique, I would recommend https://www.opencart.com/. It is the cheapest E-Commerce Software that is popular in the fashion industry. It creates a administer dashboard and tracks all the statistics a new store needs. You can also manage multiple stores from one admin interface. It allows customers to shop in any currency and create personalised filters for customers. 


A Cafe             

For a Cafe, 
I would recommend https://www.shopify.com/ as they are excellent for small businesses. They offer free trials so the business can see how it fits and decide to look elsewhere if they are not impressed. Using Shopify, the cafe can track all their orders on a dashboard that displays analytics. Shopify also helps businesses deal with finances, refunds, pricing and customer feedback.



That is all from me today, have any of you tried these apps or know any other good options? Let me know in the comments. Thanks

Search Engine Optimization

Hi Guys, Welcome back to another blog. This week, I will be telling you my ideas on how to optimize web traffic from search engines such as Google or Bing. Increasing Visibility on search engines and the web traffic from the search engine could make or break a business who does not have a huge budget for marketing! 😀 My Tips 1. Write Quality, Original Content ✌ If a reader finds your website and enjoys what they see, finds new original sources, they will return to your site. This will increase your websites traffic and lead to your site being recommended to people who make similar searchers as the original reader.  2. Create Snippets 📍 If someone is searching a question, they don't want to read through page after page of results to find the answer. Creating snippets such as bullet-point lists with simplistic writing could drive your website to the top of the search page leading to more clicks on your website.  3: Organise your Title and Description 📝 Your title and website ...

It's All About Engagement!

Hi Guys, Another blog from me today, this week I'm going to be looking at how to engage my audience with my posts, hopefully its not to late 😉. Grabbing and keeping an audience's attention is critical to successful communication so I will be explaining some ideas I used to keep you engaged with my posts.                                                                 Firstly, I identified my target audience, being college students. It's no secret that no student has the time or willpower to read page after page of my posts, so I like to keep my posts short and to the point instead of writing pages for the sake of it. I feel like my posts being short and efficient is a good way to capture my audiences attention.📢 I also didn't want my posts just to be a white background with a load of black text, so I add images and emojis ...
