Website Updates...

I've been updating my website recently, and (perhaps naively) I'd hoped that this might make everything ship-shape for a while...

...In reality, all I've succeeded in doing is finding more things that need updating! (Are websites ever really finished?) 

So I guess I'll continue to call it a work in progress for a little whilst longer, but at least for now I'm a lot happier with the updates I've been able to make these last few weeks. In case you haven't visited recently (or noticed them if you have), here's a little rundown of some of the things I've had the chance to update and refresh so far:

* First and foremost I've updated the category structure to make things so much easier to find - now you can look for things by product, range, or occasion. Hooray! And I've added a link to this blog on the main navigation bar too, so you're never too far away from my ramblings. I've also removed the image carousel from the top of the homepage as I felt it made everything too cluttered, and now it's all far tidier and I'm much happier with how it looks heading into the Christmas period. 

* When it comes to products, I've added some new ones and updated some photographs of older ones to better show everything off (photography being another thing that's never really finished - it's a good job I enjoy it!), and I've added the little blue Facebook 'Recommend' button to each product page too so whenever you find something you like, you can let everyone know about it!

* And, finally behind the scenes I've done lots of the boring stuff I'm not a fan of - I've tweaked SEO details, sorted out some meta data, and fixed some broken internal links and tags to help make the whole website work faster and make it easier to find online. Phew!

But of course there's so much more to do! I've a big list of updates to make, and there are a few really significant changes I'd like to make too (exciting!), but realistically it might be the new year before I get the chance to work on those things. I'll see how much time I have these next few months.

So that's where things are for now, but if there's anything in particular you'd like to see more of (or less of!) on the site please do let me know, and I'll add it in to my 'Neverending Big List of Website Tasks'.
