The migglesupport system is a new tool designed to help our miggle customers request features or amends to their website, ask for help with content management or report any problems.

Simple to use, clients will log details of their query as a ticket in our system and it will be instantly assigned to the appropriate member of the miggle team to address. Clients will then receive phone and / or email updates as the issue is dealt with.

Check out the new site: migglesupport.co.uk

As of this morning, Google has another rival in the search engine stakes – Wolfram Alpha. Designed to fill the slot between Google search and Wiki online encyclopaedias, is Wolfram Alpha god’s gift to the fact checker or just another also-ran?

The miggle team have been playing around with it this morning, so now we all know that Ian has the same birthdate as miracle weight-loss child actor Josh Peck and the temperature at the time of my birth was 18C. Great, so far so very specific.

Unfortunately, when Paul asked me to find out who Newcastle will play for their last match in the Premier League of this Premier League season, Wolfram drew a blank on both ‘Newcastle FC’ and ‘Newcastle Football Club’. Founder, British-born physicist Stephen Wolfram, has admittedly gone on record as saying that data in the search engines is very US biased at the moment. Suspect he’ll be concentrating on cracking the American market, with projected usage spiralling out from there.

Very keen on the timelines provided with information about a person or an event, but it would have been good to have the capability to plot Bruce Willis’ timeline against that of his new young wife, Demi-lookalike, Emma Heming. Where’s the list of his film and television roles?

Also, what will happen when facts are disputed? One of Wolfram’s sources is listed as Wikipedia – not always the most reliable for online research. And how about the legendary? Wolframming ‘King Arthur’ just brings up a list of cast members from the 2004 flick. This search engine is obviously not one to mess with myth.

I’m enjoying a fresh experience so I’ll reserve judgement until Wolfram starts catering to a Brit audience. Looking forward to hearing everyone else’s feedback in the blogosphere.

My wife, Caroline, has spent a lot of this week up the allotment with the baby. Planting stuff. My interest in this venture will, shamefully, only start to kick in about six months time when she walks through the door with a trug of vegetables – hopefully with more parsnips this year than last!

We’ve been planting a few seeds at miggle this week as well – with the launch of our first .tel sites. We’re hoping they grow over the summer months in the same way as Caroline’s crop – but for now, do take a look at what we’ve done – even though they are just seedlings.

The most obvious one to check out is brighton.tel. We’ve listed a few of our favourite Brighton businesses on it – and we’ve also launched a new site – called miggletel.co.uk – from which Brighton businesses can sign up for a FREE or PREMIUM listing – or engage us to get their own .tel websites built. We’ve also added lettings.tel, motors.tel and jewellery.tel at the same time.

I’ve also published a few more as well – and what these show is how simply you can daisy chain .tel’s together. webdevelopment.tel links to miggle.tel links to alick.tel. Obviously, its just hyperlinking, its not rocket science – but it does mean, that providing I can keep on top of keeping alick.tel updated – then anyone who links to it will always have access to my latest info.

Web design and development for CHAIR: an effective business website with a minimum of fuss.

CHAIR founders Melissa and Sophie came to us with a plan for how they wanted their website to work. We created a simple yet elegant 5-page site, with email, hosting, contact form and an all-important photo gallery to show off their beautiful stock of chairs. Built in the miggleCMS content management system, their new site was up and running within a couple of days.

Sophie and Melissa were chuffed with the results: “We can’t thank miggle enough for their professionalism, creativity, dependability and quick turn-around. They are a cohesive, dynamic group that work together to create precisely what their client is after and we highly recommend them. When starting up a new company, it is important to make key choices financially and we feel that we invested wisely by choosing miggle and look forward to growing our online presence with them. Thanks to everyone on the miggle team!”

Our new website - web design and development, content management and online media

Today marks the launch of our new website – it also more or less coincides with our 2nd birthday as well.

In the two years since I set up miggle, the business has evolved into one which offers services in three distinct areas: website design and development, content management and editorial services and online media. Our new website has been designed to reflect this.

The new website is also less about me and my background and more about the services the team here can offer as a whole. Engaging miggle on your online project gets you access to a great and varied resource – whose ability to deliver can be seen in both our client pages and testimonials from happy clients.

What we’ve built at miggle is a real solid understanding of web audiences. You’ll get the benefit of that if you ask us to rebuild your website, take care of managing content on your existing page or drive more usage to your website – all to time and budget with no hidden costs.

Our relaunch comes at a time of great economic uncertainty. We can save on your in-house costs and make your online properties work harder for your business. And we’re a company which continues to be built on solid fundamentals – achieving growth, while remaining profitable, as we have been since day one.

The investment I’ve made in the miggle team has been the most astute that I’ve made in the last 24 months. They’ve built me a website which really describes what we’re about and have a plan to market it that I know will make the business continue to sing – so I really want to thank Jo, Ian and Paul for their efforts – and the others who’ve pitched in and helped too.

If you want your business to benefit from the same, do please get in touch with me for a chat about how we can help.
