A website can rank beautifully for a phrase that has never crossed the mind of an actual customer. It can sit proudly near the top of Google, polished and technically impeccable, while receiving roughly the same level of attention as a laminated fire-drill notice in an empty office. This happens because businesses often describe their

A camera can be remarkably unforgiving about a hotel’s little secrets. Guests may happily overlook the extension lead creeping beneath a table, the mysterious brown armchair parked beside an emergency exit or the sign directing everyone to “Conference Suite B,” but photographs have an irritating habit of preserving such details forever.
