Wigtown book festival accommodation

Wigtown book festival is an annual event around the end of September/start of October with a rich programme of events over a ten day period.

10 minutes drive away is some self catering cottage accommodation on the old Stewart clan estate, which was sold by the Earl of Galloway in the early 20th century and is now run as an organic dairy farm and Galloway coast holiday venue.

The estate is at Garlieston village, between Whithorn (first Christian settlement in Scotland founded by St. Ninian) and Wigtown. Check out the cottage availability calendar...

Holiday accommodation in Cyprus

Callisti is now working with The Villa Group alongside Goldminedesign to assist in SEO for one of the Cyprus villa booking websites.

Cyprus is a popular island resort in the Mediterranean for Western European and Russian holiday-makers so has a wide appeal. It is also a hotly contested online market for traffic and bookings so a multi-channel SEO strategy is the way forward.

Art events in Dumfries and Galloway

Callisti is pleased to have teamed up with Weesleekit to design and build the new Dumfries and Galloway Arts Festival website to be ready for the 2010 calendar of events.

The Arts Festival has been running annually in the region for 30 years and is established in the last week in May. Theatre, comedy, classical and folk music, children's events and film are all part of the events running throughout the region at this time.

The site is still in development so more news will follow...

Sledges

Callisti's sojourn into the world of DotNetNuke was precipitated by a transfer by a former Dodgy Till client and we are happy to take on board the Aviemore-based outdoor shop.

The client has a number of skis, snowboards and sledges websites to server customers in the UK and Europe. Traffic to the sites peak generally in January/February with steady traffic in the winter months and a lower average usage during the summer. Not rocket surgery, really...

We have chosen a US hosting company who specialise in DNN hosting and their support team has been very proactive in servicing us as a new client.
