Hello all and welcome to 2009.

2008 was a great year for Oban. We ended it with many successes, before all dispersing off to our various locations around the world – Germany, France, Portugal, Mexico. Our office on this calm first Monday back is filled with treats from around the world, including German coffee and a nice bottle of Mexican tequila

We received cards from the families for whom we purchased llamas, chickens and fruit trees through World Vision, in light of the festive season. It’s nice to be able to give back.

Brighton’s famous Argus newspaper named us the most multicultural internet company in the UK, and we are anxious to maintain our multicultural expert status in 2009.

We’ve built up a great team for this year and now it’s time to really shift into overdrive.

The world is changing – currencies are fluctuating like rollercoasters, leaders are coming and going, wars are being waged and peace being made. But some of the biggest changes are happening online. Research has shown online sales relatively unhurt by the seemingly volative credit crunch. This means those businesses quick enough to reach out to global customers through a multilingual online presence will be the ones who prosper in 2009.

Yes, we’ve said it before, and we’ll undoubtedly say it again.

Keep watch of this space for our newest research, comments, and SEO-related news for 2009.

Cheers and best of luck in this new year.
