Coffee Plantation Cottages

“By the way the reason Polly (Sunday Independent journalist) was so interested in doing the story is that she found the website & sold the idea to the newspaper with the site – so being ‘Hotel of the Week’ is down to your brilliant site!! Thanks.”

The small can be great if findable

Lime Tree Farm offers luxury environmentally friendly holiday accommodation on their family run coffee farm in the Blue Mountains, Jamaica. Like many they began their web life in 2003 with a flash site – this looked fantastic, as awe inspiring as their setting and cottages, but sadly no potential clients could find them when searching for holiday accommodation in Jamaica, and those that had been referred to their site were being put off through being unable to book online.

They came to Sam Dunham with a  very small web marketing budget and  their first brief of  just making sure they could be found online to  increase their number of guests. We decided to get back to basics and simplify the website  for starters and built their first search engine friendly site…

Three years later we built a CMS and integrated a WordPress blog into the site so that the owners would be easily able to email and update their latest news – there is no ADSL or landlines in the Blue Mountains !  We re-wrote their website copy so that it was optimised for both visitors and the search engines for their very niche market. It’s working and they are still our client on an ongoing basis.
