I am sure a similar thing is happening where you are based and it might be worth you going along to give talks and sharing your experience. It will help your site get exposure to the right audience if you respectfully mention it at the beginning or end of your talk.
Some constructive points: The copy on your site could use a tweak. There are a lot of unnecessary commas and strange grammar usage.
The mouse-over nav on your blog makes my eyes bleed, especially the colour of the tag line.
Consider putting your blog under your main subdomain (http://www.makerops.com/blog) rather than a separate sub-domain (http://blog.makerops.com). We did this recently and it dramatically improved our SEO as Google started using the content on our blog to rank our whole site.
Edit: Fixing my own grammar!
