The importance of content strategy for your website
For all too long websites were designed and developed solely around what looked "good" and little thought was given to anything beyond the design. For a time this didn't seem to matter to anyone, the .com years were still young and Internet accessibility to the average person browsing the net at home was still largely limited. 12 Dec 2011 Read more

Lima Bean's word-class web solutions
A little over five years ago, Lima Bean was created, the brainchild of three top performing UCT Business Science Information Systems Honours graduates. For the first few years, and to great success, the company's main focus was on developing world-class e-commerce, CMS and custom developed websites. As Lima Bean expanded, so too did their clients' requirements and the company subsequently chose to branch out into internet marketing and mobile web design, both services proving to be a natural extension of what they were already offering on an exceptional level. 30 Aug 2011 Read more

Social Media ROI - How can it be measured?
There is no disputing the fact that social media, with its numerous platforms, has enabled companies and brands the ideal opportunity with which to engage and interact more with clients and potential customers. To then be able to gather information that is garnered from these sites and use it to effectively target them with content, products and specials that they actually want, is a massive bonus and one that needs to be carefully considered. 4 Aug 2011 Read more

The importance of a high quality website
Years ago, website design, an intuitive user experience, conversion optimisation, quality content and search engine ranking weren't given as much consideration as they are today. Back then, if you even had a website, it was good enough marketing leverage. Today however, it's no longer that simple. 20 Jul 2011 Read more

E-marketing that really delivers
E-marketing (a.k.a. online or internet marketing) is essentially the marketing and promotion of products and services over the internet. It incorporates a number of different strategies which, in a nutshell, are aimed to increase and generate business and traffic to your site. Such strategies include search engine optimisation (SEO), social media management, digital advertising, Web PR, online reputation management and mobile and email marketing. 19 May 2011 Read more

Top web development company Lima Bean has been hard at work the last few months with the international and local versions of the Mail Blaze website. The international version was developed and launched two months ago and makes use of PayPal's highly sophisticated API that minimises human intervention when signing up and making account payments. The local version, which was completely re-created to keep in line with the international version, went live last week. Paypal was not an option for the local site though, as it does not yet allow users to be charged in South African rands. 10 Dec 2010 Read more
