Job Title: Marketing and Online PR Executive
Furniture Village is a leading furniture retailer, with stores all over the UK and a strong TV and web presence (www.furniturevillage.co.uk). We've been managing their SEO since 2006, improving their natural positions for key terms such as beds. Our extensive online PR work has gained them some strong links and further improved these positions.
The work you've (Stella) done with our Park Lane TV bed is fantastic. You've really helped push one of our key products which has the wow-factor and secured some great coverage. In fact, it's become our best selling bed which I'm sure has been aided by all your work. Not only did you secure coverage on some key target market websites, but I'm also delighted with the significant jumps we've made as a result in Google for 'beds' - exactly what we wanted.
