And with SEO a core component of everyone’s marketing and business strategy, having a mobile friendly responsive design website is essential.

Responsive Design is a way to ensure regardless of the device that people are using to view your website, they are getting the best browser experience. It’s one URL, one website, one backend CMS to deliver content in the ideal browsing format regardless of your screen size – smartphone, tablet or notebook and PC.

Advantages of Responsive design website:


Accessibility and User Experience - Your website is accessible and easy to navigate regardless of the screen that is browsing it.
Managing your site is easier – One website means there is one backend database to manage – no more sub domains, updating content in different CMS program.
No Duplicated Content - Since in the responsive design only single URL is going to viewable in all devices so don't need two URL’s with the same content. Duplicated content can be a major source of SEO problems. When duplicate content is present, site owners suffer rankings and traffic losses, and search engines provide less relevant results.

What is paid, earned, shared and owned media?

By Erica Williams • February 8, 2023
Media is complex. Much more than it used to be. Since the dawn of the internet and rise of social media, the number of media options has exploded. For a marketing manager, they are like pieces of a puzzle, interconnecting and working together. So, how does a marketing manager make the pieces form a nice, big, beautiful picture, to successfully stand out not only amongst the competition but above the vast array of media noise? American digital marketing expert, Gini Dietrich, identified four types of media: Paid, Earned, Shared and Owned. She called it the PESO model . Here we look at the four types of media. We describe and analyse each one and discuss how they all fit together.

Icon celebrates 20 years in business

By Joe Papadatos • February 5, 2023
When we launched in 2003, the trend in agencies was to provide a specialist service, like creative or media buying. But we saw the opportunity to offer full-service marketing to our clients, taking the pain away from managing multiple agencies with multiple processes. We’ve chosen to continue to base ourselves in the Macarthur region, moving to Campbelltown in our current office nearly six years ago.  This has enabled us to build strong working relationships with many companies in our region including property developers, builders, manufacturers, local Councils, venues, and many more. We’ve also worked with loads of companies outside the region which is becoming so much easier with the aid of technology. We’re not just suppliers, but genuine business partners. I’d like to thank the many clients I’ve worked alongside in the past 20 years and look forward to continuing many of those relationships.
