Another way to check out what I am up to here at Derrykyle is via my own website

Nowadays I just have a select few customers and it is mainly a hobby for me, however the fact that I am not churning out dozens of sites means your project will get all my attention and I can provide my expertise and advice at a really competitive price.

I have been busy taking photo's for, co-authoring and publishing a book for a local musician and composer called Marcus Hernon.
The book is called Sioscarnach Mhuintir Fhínse: Feenish Murmurings and is a recent history of the families that lived on the now uninhabited island of Feenish or Finis if you are looking on Google Maps.
The book is for sale on Amazon in the UK and Ireland, for £16 with free post and packaging and otherwise in your countries own Amazon bookstore.

Voice Search and SEO.
According to statistics half of all internet searches next year will be via voice using assistants like Siri, Google, and Alexa. These assistants only return the top featured snippet, or whatever answer falls in “position zero.”
Voice search queries tend to be longer, and use natural language, for example, someone using their mobile device to search for a nearby cafe might ask "What are the best-rated cafes near me" instead of traditionaly typing "best coffee shops in Galway" Voice search queries tend to be longer-form (also known as long-tail), and often include the 5 Ws and H: who, what, when, where, why, and how. To improve your chances of landing the feature snippet in search results, start including these words and phrases into your SEO keywords.

I added an embedded blog to Elaine Conneely's website www.connemaraoilpaintings.com which is a better way for her to showcase the art class paintings than her page as the previous posts are easily accessed by a vistor.

I would like to wish all my customers a very Happy Christmas, everyone who used my website design or bought chainsaw carvings or art or toys or provided part-time employment that helps me stay in a wonderful part of the world.
