## About Cambridge

Cambridge has an exceptionally high concentration of technical and academic customers, which shifts expectations: this is an audience that notices a slow website and reads detail properly. There is also a substantial rental and college-related market, and property values mean domestic trades routinely work on higher-value projects than the city's size alone would suggest.

## Nearby

Elsewhere in Cambridgeshire, Soham (13 miles), Ely (15 miles), Godmanchester (15 miles) and Huntingdon (16 miles) are within reach. A longer drive takes in Royston (12 miles), Newmarket (12 miles), Saffron Walden (14 miles) and Potton (15 miles). If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.

We are based in Exeter and work with Cambridge businesses remotely.

## Questions

### Do you actually work with businesses in this area?

Yes. We are based in Exeter and build websites for businesses right across the UK. The work is done remotely, by phone, WhatsApp and video call, and we will not pretend to have an office down the road from you.

### Does it matter that you are not local to me?

For building and looking after a website, no. Everything is done by phone, WhatsApp and video call, and you approve the design on your own phone before anything goes live. What does matter is local search visibility, and that depends on the site and your Google Business Profile being set up for your area, not on where we sit.

### How do I compete with bigger businesses in my area locally?

By being specific. A large regional firm usually has one page that covers everywhere; you can have a page about what you do in your town, naming the areas you cover and the jobs you do. Add a fast site and a fully completed Google Business Profile, and you are giving local searchers a clearer answer than a page written for the whole region.
