Sticking to what we know best...

About us

Gecko. An agency you’ll want to stick with. We’re not called ‘Gecko’ for nothing—sticking to things is something that we naturally do. Year in, year out clients have stuck with Gecko—the first certified Umbraco Partner in Scotland. But that’s probably not the main reason why 91% of our clients stay with us for five years or more. It’s probably because we get stuck deep into their projects as if they were our very own. With a team that thrives on solving digital challenges. If you work with us, you’ll soon notice we treat your goals and growth pains as though they were ours. With us it’s not ‘you’ and ‘us’—it’s simply ‘we.’ At the heart of Gecko is a focus on delivering measurable results and demonstrable ROI for our clients. We have a huge breadth of knowledge and expertise and we bring creativity and innovative technology together to deliver results. And by specialising purely in online media we can integrate with the conception, planning, execution and measurement phases of marketing teams. In early 2015, we opened up a second office in Chester.

    Woof! Baxter here, your trusty Barketing Manager, and today I'm here to share six simple steps to help you craft compelling content for better engagement! 1. Know Your Audience's Favorite Treats First things first—know who you’re writing for! Just like I know my favorite treats, you should know what your audience loves. Research their interests, preferences, and pain points. Use this knowledge to craft content that speaks directly to their needs. Think of it like fetching their favorite toy—give them what they want, and they’ll come running! 2. Craft a Headline That Stands Out Your headline is like the scent of a juicy bone—it needs to grab attention! Make sure your headlines are catchy and compelling. Use strong action words, pose questions, or promise valuable insights. A great headline is your first chance to make a strong impression, so make it count! 3. Fetch Their Attention with Engaging Introductions Once you've caught their eye with a great headline, reel them in with an engaging introduction. Use storytelling, intriguing facts, or relatable scenarios to pull them into your content. Just like how I’m quick to follow a new scent, your readers should be eager to dive deeper into what you have to say. 4. Offer Value with Every Fetch Content without value is like a bone with no meat—it's not very appealing! Make sure every piece of content you create offers something valuable to your audience. This could be useful tips, actionable advice, or insightful data. 5. Include Calls-to-Action That Make Them Sit and Stay Don’t forget to include strong calls-to-action (CTAs) in your content! Whether you want your readers to subscribe to your newsletter, download a resource, or get in touch, make sure your CTAs are clear and compelling. It’s like asking your pup to sit and stay—make it easy and rewarding! 6. Keep their Tail Wagging with Visuals Last but not least, add some visual appeal to your content. Use images, infographics, and videos to break up text and make your content more engaging. Just like how I love a good game of fetch, your readers will appreciate visuals that make your content more enjoyable and easier to understand.

    Woof woof! Baxter here, your favourite Barketing Manager, and today, I'm ready to fetch you some tips on how to optimise images for top-notch web performance. Let's make sure your website zooms faster than I chase squirrels! Step 1: Choose the Right Image Format: Start on the right paw by picking the best image format. Go for JPEG for colourful pics, PNG for clear text, and GIFs for fun animations. Just keep an eye on those file sizes! Step 2: Resize Images for Web: Like I adjust my collar for walks, resize your images to fit your website. Don't upload a big woof when only a small bark is needed. Use tools to scale them down before uploading. Step 3: Compress, Compress, Compress: Compression is key! Reduce image sizes without losing quality. Use tools or plugins to compress images before adding them to your site. Your visitors will wag their tails for the quick load! Step 4: Lazy Load Your Images Keep your site zooming with lazy loading. Images only load when needed, like when a visitor scrolls to see them. It's like saving energy for a squirrel chase! Step 5: Optimise Alt Text for SEO Give your images a voice with alt text. Describe what's happening using keywords. This helps search engines understand your content and helps all users, including those using screen readers. Step 6: Use Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) Fetch those images faster with CDNs. Store them on servers closer to your visitors for quick loading. It's like having multiple dog parks nearby—it's all about location, location, location! There you have it—six wag-worthy tips to optimise your website's images! Good Luck!
