Web design in East Kilbride
East Kilbride was Scotland's first new town, and it still works like one: homes in the villages and neighbourhoods, and a lot of the work in the business parks and the town centre.
Who I build for in East Kilbride
Plenty of East Kilbride businesses are not on a high street at all. They are units at Kelvin, College Milton, Peel Park or Nerston, and their customers find them by searching, not by walking past. For a business like that, the website and the Google listing are the shop front.
People also search by the part of town they live in. Somebody in Stewartfield, Calderwood, Greenhills or Westwood looking for a trade often types their own area, or just near me, and Google answers from your listing and your site.
What an East Kilbride site needs to do
- Your site and your Google listing saying exactly where you are and which parts of town you cover, so a unit on an estate still turns up in local searches.
- Directions and opening times that are easy to find, because a unit off a business park road is not found by accident.
- Pages for Hamilton, Blantyre and the other places you take work from, if you do.
How it works from 10 miles away
I am in Glasgow, about 10 miles from East Kilbride. You send the business name and anything you already have, I build your homepage and send you the link, usually the same day, and nothing is agreed until you have seen it. If you like it, the rest of the site is live within a week.
Questions from East Kilbride businesses
We are in a unit, not a shop. Does local search matter?
More, not less. Nobody walks past a unit on a business park, so the search result is how people find you, and your Google listing is the first thing they see.
How far are you from East Kilbride?
About ten miles, in Glasgow. Most of the work is done on the phone and on a link you can open, so the distance makes no difference to how quickly it gets done.
