SAN FRANCISCO PHOTO SHOOT

Photoshoot at Spa in San Francisco

The Hayes Valley, San Francisco location of Hayes Valley Medical is gorgeous.  It’s a beautiful facility, made even better by the artwork of Elizabeth Gorek.  We’ve been working with them on print and online marketing.  These shots have been posted to their web site.

MENLO PARK PHOTOSHOOT AND AD

Photo Shoot and Magazine Ad

Have you been to MenloVille?  It’s a fantastic shop on Valpariso Avenue between Alameda de las Pulgas and El Camino in Menlo Park.  It’s great for gifts and for high-end re purposed items.  We recently did a photoshoot there and then created this full-page magazine ad.  See the ad in the November issue of Gentry (we did the SkinSpirit ad too!)

LAW FIRM WEBSITE LAUNCHED

Law Firm Website Launched

(2025 – We’re thrilled this site worked well for our client for ten years – we just updated it last year to fully-responsive code.)

We recently finished this simple website for Marsten & Mosher An Association of Attorneys.  Check it out at: mmfamilylaw.com.

They elected to do a simple site with a separate mobile version.  Their goals for this site where simple: allow clients to easily find their offices for meetings and provide a resource for those looking for the lawyers’ biographies.

They do so well from word-of-mouth marketing that they asked for only basic SEO work.

Thank you for the project, Mia and Michelle!

YOU’RE GOING TO NEED TO KNOW THIS TO UNDERSTAND NEW DOMAIN NAME STRUCTURES

(2025 Doing some housekeeping to remove any outdated info. This is mostly now just funny old info.)

Available domain extensions are no longer just .com, .net, .us, .org, etc. Some recently made available include: .movie, .coupons, .soccer, .catering, .fyi, .ski, .men, .miami — more each day. 

As an internet user, don’t be confused if you see a website address written with a full–word after the dot. That familiar three–letter extension or two–letter country code extension will prevail, but websites are no longer limited to just these. 

As a business owner, you have some choices to make. This is the time to review all available domains and extensions and be aware of what will soon become available so you can grab your perfect extension. 

For example, a catering client of ours purchased a .catering domain to use on print marketing. It will forward to their main website. 

Some reasons to consider specific extensions are to: 

• help with print marketing — easier to remember, more specific website addresses, 

• prevent your competition or other businesses from owning it (yes, they are doing it to you), 

• show you are current with the times, and 

• own your business’ perfect domain in case search engines change their algorithms in the future. 

If you wish to find out what domains extensions are soon becoming available, do a search engine search for “new domain watcher” and to find out what extensions are already available, do a search engine search for “domain availability”. There are many tools out there to help. 

Let John know if you’d like us to work on a domain plan for you. We’d review all your currently registered domains and give recommendations on what to keep and what to let lapse. We’d make sure that the correct redirection was put on your domains so you are not hurting your SEO. And we’d work on a plan for getting a new domain extension(s) which will best suit your business and goals.

HELLO FROM JOHN AND RACHEL!

Hello From John and Rachel

“HELLO!”

(2025 update! This is when it started.)

Things are moving quickly these days and to help you keep up on what we (as Meta Pixel Solutions) are up to, we’ve started this blog.

We often find ourselves repeating the same answers to questions from our clients via e-mail, so figured it was about time we started posting them to a blog (which will forward to our Facebook and Twitter pages too.)
