## About Livingston

Livingston is a post-war new town built in self-contained districts, each with its own roads, schools and local centre, and it has kept growing with private estates on its southern and western edges. Residents are largely working families who commute along the M8 and shop at the big centre in Almondvale. Because people identify with their district rather than "Livingston", a website that names Dedridge, Murieston or Eliburn reads as properly local, and new-build owners with snagging and garden work to do search online first.

## Nearby

The nearest towns in the same council area are Broxburn (4 miles), Bathgate (5 miles) and Linlithgow (7 miles). A longer drive takes in Penicuik (12 miles), Grangemouth (12 miles), Falkirk (13 miles) and Dunfermline (13 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 Livingston 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.
