			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a title="Bed and Breakfast Lockerbie" href="http://www.tarrasbandb.co.uk" target="_blank">Tarras Guest House, Lockerbie</a></strong></p>
<p>Owner John Yarker contacted me shortly after I completed the <a href="http://www.riversidemill-lockerbie.co.uk" target="_blank">Riverside Mill bed and breakfast near Lockerbie</a> and I set about creating a new design that showcased this lovely Dumfries and Galloway Guest House.</p>
<p>The new site has been developed from scratch using<a href="http://www.joomla.org/" target="_blank"> Joomla!</a> and is now on the front page of all the major search engines. I am planning to get Tarras and Riverside near to the top of Google for all the most popular searches during Autum 2009.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://www.riversidemill-lockerbie.co.uk" target="_blank">Riverside Mill Bed and Breakfast near Lockerbie, Dumfries and Galloway.</a></strong></p>
<p>What makes this bed and breakfast really special is the abundance of local wildlife including Red Squirrels, Otters, Swans and Kingfishers that can often be enjoyed from within the grounds. (4.5 acres).</p>
<p>Simple promotional website for Riverside Mill Bed and Breakfast.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="320" height="265" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/o1yy9_sswus&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="320" height="265" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/o1yy9_sswus&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><em><strong>Simple promotional video for Riverside Mill Bed and Breakfast.</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em><strong><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1yy9_sswus">also available on youtube</a><br />
</strong></em></p>
<p>I was really pleased to be asked to develop and market their bed and breakfast new website and the work has paid off. Riverside Mill is now receiving regular bookings and really positive comments for their website.</p>
<p>The design introduced our <a href="http://www.riversidemill-lockerbie.co.uk/river-wildlife/wildlife-watch">wildlife watch</a> that allows all guests to register any wildlife they spot during their stay. Owners Heather and Martin will be adding to it too.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.theguestcompany.co.uk/contact/">Contact me</a> if you would like to discuss how I can help you beat the competition.</p>
