Working with Dan at Crouch Consulting has been a fantastic experience. As an automotive enthusiast and a web specialist, he understands what makes my inventory unique and how to position my content accordingly on search engines. The increases in traffic to my site speak for themselves. I would not hesitate to recommend Crouch Consulting to any other small business if they want affordable, understandable, and effective results. -Clayton Boss, owner Boss Autos

Thanks for the kind words Clayton! I’m looking forward to achieving even greater success with you this year!

In 2008, I’d like to add more clients in the automotive and motorsports industries to my list of successful partnerships. If results like these appeal to you, please feel free to email me about how I can work with your team to dramatically increase your presence and conversions on the web.

But in all seriousness, as we begin 2008, I have many people to thank for what has been a most successful 2007 at Crouch Consulting:

+ At Oregon State University, the Office of Enrollment Management and the Office of Admissions; my boss and my main clients. I am really fortunate to work with a truly dedicated team of professionals that are striving to do the best job they can. I’m inspired all the time by their efforts and I look forward to successfully completing even greater projects with them in the coming year!

+ The professional organizations of PACRAO and PNACAC, as well as Academic Impressions for inviting me back again for another year to speak at your conferences and workshops. It is always rewarding to communicate with other professionals in our field and continue our growth together.

+ To Pacwest Engineering LLC in Albany, Oregon, for being a great friend and resource to Crouch Consulting.

+ Stephanie at ATI Wah Chang for the opportunity to chew the fat with the big boys once and a while.

+ I have been fortunate enough to work with BossAutos for 2 years and I’m grateful for the work and exposure Clayton!

+ To Mark and Laura, owners of Calapooia Brewing who give me far more latitude than I deserve!

+ No thank you posting would be complete without a big thank you to Millholland Conrad for continuing to trust me with their business for over 7 years!

+ And to the new relationships made this year with the following clients: Albany Massage Center, Mark Stevens Photography in Denver, and WornBy in London. I have enjoyed working with all of you and look forward to our work together in the coming year!

Here’s to our success in 2008 and I pledge to make this blog active and useful moving forward!

The content can reference static HTML content or the list items can be created dynamically on-the-fly (with or without Ajax).

The script was easy to use and is very flexible with it’s numerous configuration options.

March was my best month ever, nearly cracking 10,000 unique hits in a month without any paid placement or banner advertising to drive traffic. Almost 99% of that traffic is a result of organic search results.

Like those results? Interested in increasing traffic to your site from organic search results? Contact me for a consultation!

BossAutos.com was well overdue for a facelift, and we recently updated it with a fresh WordPress template called Hemmingway. The two column layout really suits the site much better, displaying the most current vehicles in inventory up front.

Mark and Laura are full steam ahead with their recently purchased microbrewery and naturally we had to make sure they had a great website up as well. With a complete custom website underway, we are temporarily using a great WordPress template from Thomas Silkjlr as we work on getting their new site up later this year.

Stop by Calapooia Brewing and say hi to Mark and Laura, and enjoy some great microbrew in the Willamette Valley!
