Penalty Points - Which Sector Has the Most? 23rd August, 2010

Researchers have delved into the world of penalty points in a bid to see which business sector picks up the most.  The statistics released make for interesting, yet some may say predictable, reading.

Vansdirect get the Meerkat Treatment 28th May, 2010

Voila - A Van!

We would like to take this opportunity to sympathise with Alexander Meerkat, as we at Vansdirect do occasionally get mistaken for the supplier of a branded footwear.

We would like to take this opportunity, as has Mr Meerkat on a number of occasions, to point out the difference.

Vansdirect Limited sell new vans, and cheap vans at that!

We do not sell trainers, daps or footwear!

Why would you want to buy trainers to run around the place, when a new van can get you there quicker!

Voila - A Van!

Marketing cheap vans for sale starts with Blue Sky thinking

Round and round we go, where it stops nobody knows!  Or at least that’s how this Credit Crunch feels for car and van makers across the world.  Ford announces a 20% increase in sales since April yet cheap vans maker LDV slip back into administration - the Credit Crunch is certainly a story of extremes.

Van SEO 2nd June, 2009

Vansdirect - out to dominate Google

Vansdirect - out to dominate Google

I’m not a natural marketeer - but then who is?!  However, the world of Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is fascinating even for an outsider.  The lengths websites will go to to attract a customer and more importantly attract a customer before anyone else.

For some sites it’s probably a byproduct of what the site does - eBay’s content changes daily through user interaction and with obvious corporate input for example - for someone like Vansdirect it’s a little bit more complicated.
