Graze Festival Announces Year Off
After 4 fantastic years of live music, fine food and family entertainment, Graze Festival is taking a break.
Founded in 2015, Graze Festival has grown into one of Hampshire’s leading family-friendly festivals. Over 10,000 festival-goers have witnessed live music performances from The Blockheads, Toyah, The Beat, Stereo MCs, Republica, From The Jam, Neville Staple, This Is The Kit and many more.
The Graze Festival Community Fund has distributed over £20,000 to local groups and charities. The annual summer event is organised entirely by volunteers and is a not-for-profit enterprise.
“Putting on a festival is a year-round commitment. We need an opportunity to refine our ideas, gather feedback from our fantastic community, and bolster our offering to local festival goers for 2020.”
“We sincerely hope that after a well-earned rest we can find a way once more to put on one of Hampshire’s finest days out for all the family to enjoy.”

Does my website have to be mobile-friendly?
As of 21st April 2015, websites without a responsive design will be de-prioritised in search results. Whilst Google haven’t stated the severity of their recent update, we know that websites are losing ground in search engine results pages (SERPs) as a consequence of not being mobile friendly.
A loss in ground (or a drop in rankings) usually equates to less visitors from search engines. This, in turn, can lead to a drop in enquiries online.

Migrating a WordPress site from http to https in 7 steps
When Google confirmed https as ranking factor back in August 2014, many digital marketers added ‘migrate website to https’ to their SEO task list.
Over the past 12 months, a number of content websites have purchased an SSL certificate and configured their secure site padlock, but the true impact of migrating from http to https is yet to be fully realised.
Regardless, if you’re writing blog content and tweaking meta titles, chances are you’re looking for some quick wins to bolster your search engine visibility. Alas, as with many technical SEO duties, there’s no such thing as a five minute job – even with super easy content managed WordPress websites.
