The area around Forfar.
Forfar is the county town of Angus, famous for its bridies and set in the fertile farmland of Strathmore beside its loch. It functions as a market and service centre for the surrounding farms and villages, from Glamis to Letham, and many residents commute to Dundee. Rural customers rely heavily on Google Maps and on businesses with clear coverage areas, so a Forfar firm should list the villages it serves and keep its Business Profile complete with hours and contact details.
Inside Angus, the closest places are Arbroath (13 miles) and Montrose (17 miles). Further out, Dundee (13 miles), St Andrews (21 miles), Cupar (23 miles) and Perth (27 miles) are within commuting distance. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.
Within Forfar itself, we build for businesses in Kirriemuir, Letham, Glamis, Lunanhead, Padanaram and Inverarity.
From our base in Exeter, Forfar is about 410 miles to the north. Its postcodes start DD.
