Third Thursday

Previous Newsletters

We are a company of digital enthusiasts and not many days go by without someone discovering something new or exciting. We like to talk too, but the thing is, talking to yourself is not much fun. That is why we tweet, we blog and we have started to send out a monthly newsletter. We call it Third Thursday (I'm sure you can guess why) and it is the product of the Discoverer and the Chatterbox in us here at Codegent Towers.

It's the Third Thursday of the month :)

It's been a strange month: the sun is out and the skies over Codegent London have been surreally empty. It's almost time for shorts in the office and lunch on the Common. But we've been busy bees, especially Luke who has been pimping our wares to the Great and the Good at the Chirp Twitter Conference in San Francisco, successfully selling our Twitbooth App to Brizzly.

And in this month's bumper-packed "Third Thursday" as Rupert Murdoch announces that you're going to have to pay if you want to read his newspapers? content online, we ask where the money's really going to come from?

We also give you some handy tips for analysing your competitors and implore everyone to consider that your homepage is often not the first page that people arrive at your site on.

Finally, don't miss our Five Must-Know Google Analytics Tips. You'll be amazed how you can make this free tool work even harder for you.

See you in May?
