BSB had a website designed by another company many years ago, however during the design process they failed to contact BSB to finalise the website.
AJ Network & Web Services was contacted to help get their website live. I recommended a redesign to the website for many reasons. The old website was plain, outdated and lacked the functions to rank well in Google.
The process took five days to redesign and two hours to relaunch the website and submit sitemaps to Google & Bing. The website had one months free SEO service.
