I stumbled across a great little plugin that takes advantage of the Google Maps API. The best part is you do not need to worry about any coding. Just install the plugin and add your points of interest (via address) and hey presto you have a functional map on your site, with the added feature of directions. It integrated very nicely in to our B&B web site.

It gives you the ability to add a map to either a page of a post. In my example we have added a few maps to some of the posts we have in the Attractions section.

So go take a look: MapPress Google Map Plugin

If your in your WordPress plugins section just search for “MapPress”.

Jim Stewart is an old mate of mine from my dot com days. An honest, trustworthy fellow with a lot of integrity.

His company specializes in SEO. He is very good at it, and in this video show you how easy it is. Like I say it is not rocket science, but it is a little more difficult to do well and consistently. Hence the existence of companies such as StewArt Media.

So if you are trying to do SEO yourself have a watch of this. If you need a little help and are a client of mine, ask. If you need a lot of help, or want someone to do it for you, ask me for a quote or ask Jim!

I was mindlessly surfing around and came across this WordPress template. At $75 it is a great theme for a small cafe or coffee shop. A little tweaking could customize it a little more for a particular business.

I really liked the different elements. The daily specials, pertinent info like opening times and contact details.

So check it out!
