Around Ashford.
Ashford in Kent has grown quickly around its international station and high-speed link to London, with large new housing developments, a designer outlet and a steady stream of people moving in from further afield. Newcomers do not have a trusted local plumber or hairdresser yet, so they search. That rewards businesses with a clean website, recent reviews and clear coverage of the new neighbourhoods and surrounding villages, and it means the town is still an open market for firms willing to put the work into local search.
The nearest town in the same council area is Tenterden (10 miles). Elsewhere in Kent, Hythe (11 miles), Faversham (12 miles), New Romney (12 miles) and Canterbury (13 miles) are within reach. If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.
Inside Ashford, the site can name areas such as Kennington, Willesborough, Singleton, Kingsnorth and Great Chart.
From our base in Exeter, Ashford is about 194 miles to the east. Its postcodes start TN.
