Kingston upon Hull and the places nearby.
Hull is a port city on the Humber with a fishing heritage, a growing offshore wind industry and a fiercely independent local identity. It feels somewhat apart from the rest of Yorkshire, and customers are loyal to businesses that are clearly from Hull. The city also shades into East Riding suburbs such as Cottingham and Anlaby, which are separate authorities but part of the same everyday market, so naming both on your site widens reach cheaply.
Across the boundary into the next council area, Hessle (4 miles), Hedon (5 miles), Barton-upon-Humber (6 miles) and Beverley (8 miles) are also close. A longer drive takes in Immingham (10 miles), South Cave (11 miles), Winterton (12 miles) and Hornsea (13 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Within Kingston upon Hull itself, we build for businesses in The Avenues, Old Town, Hessle Road, Sutton-on-Hull, Anlaby and Cottingham.
From our base in Exeter, Kingston upon Hull is about 249 miles to the north-east. Its postcodes start HU.
