## About London

London is less one market than thirty, and a business in Walthamstow competes on entirely different terms to one in Richmond. Local search is unusually decisive here because the practical radius people will travel is small - a customer in Peckham is not calling a tradesperson in Harrow. That makes borough-level and neighbourhood-level relevance far more valuable than being broadly visible across the capital, and it is where most London small business websites are weakest.

## Nearby

Elsewhere in Greater London, Rotherhithe (4 miles), Bromley (5 miles), Willesden (5 miles) and Hornsey (6 miles) are within reach. 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 London 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.
