The BBC operates several TV channels in the UK, including BBC One for general programming, BBC Two for documentaries and older audiences, and channels dedicated to news, politics, children's programming, and more. Channel 4 is publicly owned but funded through advertising rather than public funds or licenses. It has a remit to be innovative and distinctive in its programming across TV, film, and digital media. Commercial TV channels are funded through advertising sales, while public service TV is funded

From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.

2. WHAT IS UK TV BROADCASTING?
Television broadcasting in the UK, was introduced as an extension of
radio broadcasting. Its development was the responsibility of the BBC.
The BBC was set up as the British Broadcasting Company in 1922 by a
group of manufacturers of wireless equipment – an early attempt by
hardware manufacturers to create software and a distribution system.
The BBC is a private sector organisation was the world’s first ‘national
broadcaster’ but during the General Strike of 1926, On 1st January
1927, the British Broadcasting Corporation was founded with a Royal
Charter and granted a licence to broadcast. The new corporation had
a measure of independence from the state.

3. THE MULTI-CHANNEL ENVIRONMENT, 1990 ONWARD
In 1990 and 1996, the Broadcasting Act legislated ‘ independent television’ where digital broadcasting would provide more variety in
channels along side computer services. This meant that after 35 years, BBC, Channel Four and ITV would share their audience with
other broadcasters.
THE BEGINNINGS OF PLURALISM 1982–90
In 1982, Channel Four was established. This meant that it was not under the BBC and therefore could raise a diverse audience.

1964. In 1967 the ‘switchover’ to colour transmissions began and the final ‘switchover was made in 1985. T.V broadcasting companies
such as BBBC and ITV were closely controlled but the IBA
THE EARLY YEARS 1936–55
In the early years T.V was only for the metropolitan middle class. For short time during1939-1946 all broadcasting was disrupted
because of the war. Back then the BBC only had one channel and could only be received by 81 percentage of the population. Viewers
were required to have a radio and T.V license. In 1955 only four and a half million people had a T.V License.

12. The BBC does not carry out any advertising or sponsorship on its
public services.They do this because they want to remain
independent of commercial interests and ensure they can be run
purely to serve the general public interest.
If airtime was sold either wholly or partially, advertisers and
other commercial pressures would be able to have their say on
when the programme is filmed and schedule priorities.Which
deceases theThere revenue for broadcasters.

The BBC have ensured that the whole
of the UK has access to their
channels. They have established
channels in Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland which means that
that these channels can cater to the
region they are shown. For example,
in Northern Ireland they have their
own regional news channels and can
have different scheduling for
different shows. I think this is an
unique idea because it means that
different regions can take
ownership of their own BBC channel

P1- C- Operation Model-Modes of Delivery
The BBC broadcast its channels to a
tower which then broadcasts the
programmes out to any T.V set that
has freeview, BT Vision and Youview.
This mean that no matter what T.V you
have you will have access to the BBC.
All BBC channels have the BBC red
Button attached to them. This allows
people to access a shortlist of channels
and get update while watching BBC.
For example, they can pick and choose
which match they want to watch at
Wimbledon.
21. P1- C- Operation Model-Modes of Delivery
All the BBC channels are uplinked to a satellite. This
allows the programmes to be shown on SKY and
Freesat.
Also, all channels can be uploaded to a cable head-
end delivery which means that people who have
VIRGIN TV have access to all BBC channels.
BBC IPlayer plays a huge part in people being able to
access the channels on their phones, tablets or
computers. This means that the channels can be
accessed at anytime, anywhere that has an internet
connection.
I believe that BBC’s modes of delivery are very
accessible for the UK public. In every household there
is an easy solution to access BBC which means that
the BBC is the largest and most population
broadcaster in the UK. ITV have followed in their
footsteps by provide their own IPLAYER and out
letting their channels to SKY etc.
22. P1- E- Operation Model-Production Process- Eastenders
EastEnders is filmed at BBC Elstree
Centre in Borehamwood,
Hertfordshire. Each day the
production team film between,
adding up to approximately 13
minutes of screen time. This
compares to five or six minutes shot
per day on a normal TV drama.
Episodes are produced in "quartets" of
four episodes, each of which starts
filming on a Tuesday and takes nine
days to record. he episodes are
usually filmed about six to eight
weeks in advance of broadcast.
During the winter months, filming is
done twelve weeks in advance, due to
less daylight for outdoor filming.
Filming
• EastEnders is normally recorded using four
cameras.
Edit number one
• When a quartet is completed, it is edited by the
director, videotape editor and script supervisor.
Edit Number two
• The producer then reviews the edits and decides if
anything needs to be re-edited, which the director
will do
Technically review
•A week later, sound is added to the episodes and
they are technically reviewed, and are ready for
transmission if they are deemed of acceptable quality.

23. P1- E- Operation Model-Production Process- Live T.V
On 15 September 2009, the BBC announced plans to broadcast the first ever live episode of EastEnders, to celebrate the show's
25th anniversary.
Rehearsals
• The EastEnders cast and crew had two weeks to rehearse the episode
• The script was issued on the afternoon of 5 February 2010
• The actor playing the killer would be informed of their actions at 7:30 pm on 19 February, 30 minutes
before the episode's transmission
Directing
• Direction of the episode differed from typical episodes of EastEnders, whereby actors briefly run through their lines,
block the scene to be filmed, then begin shooting with the director on the studio floor.
• Once technical rehearsals began and cameras were added in, Ashdown moved from the studio floor to an outside
broadcast truck. All cameras on set were cabled to the truck, allowing Ashdown to oversee the entire episode
remotely
Filming
• In case of any serious problems during transmission, a rehearsal for the episode was filmed, including each version
of the reveal scene.
• The live broadcast took 400 camera shots to film, and 36 camera operators.
Broadcasting
• "EastEnders Live" was watched by a cumulative audience of 19.9 million viewers. Its original screening averaged
16.41 million viewers, attaining a 57% audience share.
24. P1- F- Operation Model-Distribution UK and Europe
The BBC is required but the BBC Agreement to ensure
that audiences are able to access the UK Public Services
that are intended for them. The overall cost of
maintaining the distributing content is significant - some
£210m, or 6% of the licence fee.
The distribution policy was reviewed and updated in 2012.
The reason for this was that there had been considerable
change in the technology world. Now the majority had
smartphones so they could access all the programmes if
they had the correct app. This resulted in the broadcasting
and IP environments were blurring into one.
The Distribution framework covers the distribution of TV,
Radio and Online services (including BBC iPlayer and Red
Button services) to any device used to access them
including TVs, radios, personal and tablet computers,
games platforms, set top boxes, and mobile phones. To
oversee all off this the BBC set up their own Executive
Board to manage that the principals of the BBC Trust are
fulfilled.

stating that the BBC Trust should be replaced by OFCOM.
Sir David Clementi, who led the independent review, said
there was a need for "fundamental reform". His main
concerns with BBC Trust is "It conflates governance and

have a unitary Board charged with responsibility for
meeting the obligations placed on it under the Royal
