There’s a philosophy called “pay it forward”. It’s something we should all do if we can, in any way that we can. At its simplest, it means doing a good deed for another person and only asking in return that they do a good deed for someone else. So, Media Mojo exists to help others, and in doing so, hopefully encourage others to pass it on.

Why web design and search engine optimisation? Because it’s something we can do and it’s something that can help small businesses and other small organisations compete in the current economic climate.

The internet revolution has dramatically changed how we find information and how we view the world. Large organisations have large budgets and money makes money, but those large budgets can mean that the smaller organisations just can’t compete as they can’t afford to buy the expertise to create a useful web presence.

A professionally designed and supported website can cost many hundreds or thousands of £s. Search engine optimisation the same again. But that’s paying commercial rates and much of the cost is paying for the time and skills that go into it. Take that out and it becomes affordable to practically everyone.

Commercial web design and SEO companies have their place and of course deserve to charge handsomely for what they do and make a good living doing it. Media Mojo is for people and organisations that simply can’t afford to buy those skills.
