Image and Photograph names are important.

Nowadays there are many techniques and resources to spread the word about your product and services. The new changes by Google mean that even more care should be taken when preparing and using a website for business.

If you open Google and type your company name, click on the image menu and now you will see all the images associated with the name. What is important is that all images is now clickable, so this provides another link to your site if people are searching for images. You will notice the name of the image is important, with the right name, more quality links.

P32745-4577.jpg really does nothing to boost your links, business-marketing-ideas.jpg will have a far greater impact, especially if your business is called "Marketing Ideas" Type in your name for example john + smith and be amazed at the results, all link to the point where the image is located. So be careful what names are used privately anf for your business.

Need Business Networking ideas? the link is worth your effort.

Windows 8, is it really ready?

There has been much said about the new Windows 8 operating system. With Microsoft offering an early upgrade offer, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Using Windows 7 for two years, I have got everything working just fine, so thought, lets do a compatibility check first to see if there would be any problems. Everything seem ok, so I downloaded and installed. A perfect upgrade.

It took a while to get used to how the system worked, but I found I always went to the desktop module to do all my work. Loved the weather App. All programs are now called Apps, a point to remember.

I had a problem with a program, and found access was locked, then found my Norton 360 could not shut down and my email program Thunderbird was frozen. Thank goodness I had made a full backup first with a system image, which means a full copy of the C drive.

I shut down two or three times the pc, but the programs would not respond. OK then do a refresh, this is where things started to go wrong. The refresh removes all non Microsoft Apps, remember programs = Apps, so doing the re-fresh solved the problem, but removed all of my programs.

Microsoft need to look at this area because programs like Thunderbird store access data in the program, so I lost all of my emails. OK, lets do a back-up re-install.

Unfortunately the back-up would not load. Posting to the Microsoft Community did not produce a single reply. In the end I contact Microsoft support and got onto the Chat line, this is covered by their 90 day support. After 5 hours of remote access by Microsoft they could not come up with a solution. The back-up had the system image but it would not install. Shame that Symantec Norton still did not have a Windows 8 version of Ghost ready yet.

On the third day I decided to re-install Windows 7 and then use a Norton Ghost copy I had from two weeks earlier. Everything is back apart from some missing emails and some passwords added to my memory folder.

A phone call to Microsoft, and the refund was underway. I signed the Letter of Destruction" online. All very professional, pity about my Windows 8 installation.

Windows 8 Gadgets, do you need them back?

 Windows 8 upgrade

I very recently upgraded from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 8 Pro. I was not happy, so much to learn, my main area of work is the Desktop, which was set-up just perfect. What no Gadgets?, Nobody mention that at the start. Maybe I should have done more research, before accepting Microsoft's offer to upgrade.

I really missed the Gadgets and have found a method to get them back.

No point in covering all the same ground of a post I made on the Web Consultant site, which shows exactly how to bring them back.

Windows 8 Start and Shutdown

There is also a solution to add a Start and Shutdown to the Desktop Taskbar. Maybe of interest to you?

Munich City Guide

Everybody is either buying or selling something. But the new Munich City Guide is just a resource of Munich information, whether you are planning on relocation, looking for a hotel, or just want to know what is the Munich Oktoberfest.
There are some advertising marketing opportunities, but these will always be limited as the site is my hobby.
Do you have a local guide for your town or city?
