February 5, 2021 Spectacular spelling mistake on the blog.

On top of that, it took me a month to fix, but at least I guess I made someone laugh!

So there is an article on our blog about hot desking, what is means, what its use is etc.

It is rather a serious article, I mean at least in its tone, I could not be so self imbued as to think of anything I write as serious in any other sense.

And in the fourth line, as pointed out by a very kind reader of the post, there was well, a mistake.

The word in question, which I misspelled, was "shift", and one letter was missing. I'll let you guess which one. The only clue I'll give, is that it is the one that would lead to the most embarrassing result.

I mean for crying out loud, I put quite some effort in this post, in how it looks, and all that, and what do I get to find out, and only due to a kind soul that took the time to tell me about it?

This basic mistake, which really put me to shame.

I know there is not much that I can expect of myself in terms of perfection, but this, really? Come on!

Anyways, now it's fixed at least, but who knows what there remains to be found in my masterpieces.

I'm quite happy that someone took the time to email me about it. How can someone be so kind.

I'll make sure to return the favor!

Cheers,

David

May 20, 2020 Updated the website with Structured Data. Results?

So I added Rich Snippets / Rich Results / Structured Data (or however you want to call them) to The Other WorkSpace's Website.

I linked the landing page, but you can take a look at the source code of the other pages, I added them in quite a few of them (and will soon add them to other pages too).

Based on my understanding these should help with the CTR and the referencing of my website, but I'm not sure what the effect will be.

I added a set of snippets to certain types of pages and I'll be adding another set of different snippets to other pages, based on the content of course.

The purpose is to improve the SEO, that is get the information through to crawlers on what is what, not just randomly post stuff on the pages and hoping for good results.

That I, basically posting:

  • the "main" data about the Organisation and Local Business on most of the pages, but with edits based on the language of the page (the site runs both in Hungarian and English)
  • I'll add product information based in the structured data too once I wrap the script up
  • and last but not least, add article data for the blog posts, to recap them and provide more info, in the format of (you guessed it) structured data script

Will that impact the SEO? Will it change the visibility in search results? Will it affect the CTR and the conversion rate?

There is a ton of this I have no clue on.

I'm also wondering how different is this from SEO optimisation in terms of adding metafields such as description of social profiles? So if you know something, say something, to recycle the Bush administration's slogan.

And well, fingers crossed. Also if you need help with setting it up, or you have a question, feel free to drop me an email!

Cheers,

David

    yes, the rich snippet will definitely help you with the SEO. Do you have a team for SEO, social media, and web content/blogs? How are you managing all these things?

      Well took me quite a while to reply, sorry for that @cyntheta!

      I do hope it does help for sure, but I'm not sure about the actual amount of times the rich results show up, plus it takes quite some time (and that's a euphemism) for google to actually take them into account it seems to me.

      No team at all, which I hope explains the lag in my reaction to your comment, I'm all alone, with this any my myriad of other projects haha :)

      Cheers, and have a great day!

November 20, 2019 Wrapped up a new version of the website!

After buying the domain and making an initial shot at a design of the website "just to be online", I wanted to get the page to become (at least a bit) better looking and more user friendly.

So I got down to it and in a bit more than 10 days I managed to get The Other WorkSpace's website up and running.

It was a thrill, and a bit of a pain to get it done too. Now I know there is a hell of a lot more things to get done, but this is a start too I guess.

Pay us a virtual visit if you want, and send me some feedback, that's always welcome! :)

Cheers,

David

August 1, 2019 Came up with the idea.

It wasn't hard, not like I'm inventing how to make a lasagna, I'm just trying to make a small and self-sustaining coworking space in the era of overpriced WeWork-s .

After a bunch of travelling around and living a kind of nomadic life, I decided to settle in Budapest and to open a coworking space that corresponds to what I was craving for during my travelling around.

I tried quite a few (to be a bit euphemistic) coworking spaces. There sure were good ones, but the majority was just..., well not really pleasant, just basically too crowded, too noisy, too expensive.

So I am basically trying to offer all that is the opposite of what I mostly found, and I may be wrong in assuming that I am not the only one that wants a space where you can work in peace and quiet, where you have actual office chairs that don't hurt your butt, or some other similar things, but I hope not! :)

So I'm basically trying to do my best to give all the comfort, calm, services, and support to create the best possible conditions in The Other WorkSpace in Budapest.

Have you ever been to a coworking space? We have. To a lot of them. And it is not always pleasant. Coworking spaces can be crowded, noisy, and quite pricey.
