BBC Set To Slash its Internet Budget By Half

This announcement rocked the world yesterday. Sorry we are late posting about it. The BBC has had some budget information leaked which is very very interesting. It seems that they are going to be making huge cutbacks and their website is going to cut down in size by 50%.
How does this affect us and SEO in general. My guess is massively. It has been proven that websites can rank and rank well with only one or two quality inbound links. I for one always try and get a link on the BBC website as I consider it to be an authority within the UK and any link I do manage to obtain has always benefited my clients in terms of rankings.
I believe we will see a quite a shake up in rankings once these pages have been taken down as all those companies who have been ranking off the back of a BBC link alone with no other SEO efforts will slowly disappear.
If any of those companies would like to work with an excellent SEO Manchester company then give us a call before you start to drop as we are more than happy to help maintain and improve your rankings.
