North Staffordshire County Site Best In The UK!

The Royal British Legion in North Staffordshire web site is considered to be the best of its type in the UK. It is actively promoted by several members of The Board of Trustees to other counties, as an example of best practice and the way forward. We have received enquiries to date from  several counties including Lincolnshire, and South Staffordshire.

The site benefits from having a visibility rating (search engine ranking /positioning) second to none of 95.64% across the Top 4 (99.78% Google.com/ Google.co.uk respectively, 99.44% MSN and 84.44% Yahoo) UK search engines and directories. This translates as 58 of our keyword phrases are ranked NUMBER ONE out 60! The visibility rating is the major contributing factor in the increase of visitors to our site from 647 in February to 29,962 in June.

Living Document

As our site is a living document about The Royal British Legion in North Staffordshire, we need your support as part of The Team in making our site a continuing success.

Firstly we need more stories about your branch, new or old (old stories for our branches archive), branch histories, old photographs of past events, items of Legion Memorabilia (Major John Bamford has lent his 1949-1953 British Legion Associate Card and 3 monthly receipts for inclusion on the site). There is also a continuing need for photographs of your branch officials and committee members to go with their contact details (feedback visitors: they like to see faces), so don’t be shy.

 Legion In The Community Links Initiative

Secondly the Legion In The Community Links Initiative is bringing your branch and or club closer ties in web terms to your local community as part of "Legion In Your Community" and the "County Public Awareness Campaign". For instance Cheddleton Branch & Club, have a link to Cheddleton Net, Kings Bromley are linked to UKVillages (Kings Bromley Society’s & Clubs), and Gnosall is linked to their Gnosall Village web site. These links are all contributing factors in the success of our top visited branches. If you are aware of any web site you wish to be added to your “Legion In The Community Links”, please let the Web Manager know.
