Around Hatfield.

Hatfield grew around the de Havilland aircraft works and is now dominated by the University of Hertfordshire, which occupies much of the former airfield, and by Hatfield House. That gives it a large student population and a busy rental market alongside family homes. Landlords and letting agents are a significant customer group for trades and cleaners. A site that names Old Hatfield, the Galleria area and nearby villages like Brookmans Park reaches the wider market.

Welwyn Garden City (3 miles) is the nearest in the same council area. Elsewhere in Hertfordshire, St Albans (5 miles), Hertford (7 miles), Harpenden (7 miles) and Ware (9 miles) are within reach. Across the boundary into the next council area, Chipping Barnet (8 miles) is also close. Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.

Old Hatfield, Hatfield Garden Village, Ellenbrook, Roe Green, Brookmans Park, Welham Green and South Hatfield: if you work in particular parts of Hatfield, those names belong on the site.

Hatfield addresses fall in the AL postcode area, about 160 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.

Questions

Web design in Hatfield: questions

Do you work with businesses in Hatfield?
Yes. We are based in Exeter, about 160 miles away, and build websites for businesses across the UK by phone, WhatsApp and video call. You check the design on your phone and sign it off before launch; two rounds of changes are part of the price.
Are there business figures for Hatfield on its own?
No. The ONS publishes business counts by council area, and Hatfield is part of Welwyn Hatfield, which it shares with Welwyn Garden City. The figures on this page are for the whole council area.
How far is Hatfield from you?
About 160 miles as the crow flies: Hatfield is north-east of Exeter, in the AL postcode area. Nobody needs to travel: the whole job runs by phone, WhatsApp and video call.
What if I work across Hatfield and nearby towns?
Then the site should say so. Welwyn Garden City, St Albans, Hertford and Harpenden are the closest places to Hatfield; tell us which ones you travel to and each gets named plainly.
