## About Polegate

Polegate grew up around a railway junction just north of Eastbourne and has become largely residential, with a lot of new-build housing and its restored windmill as a landmark. The Cuckoo Trail runs through town, and many residents commute into Eastbourne or further afield. Newcomers depend on search to find tradespeople, so naming Polegate, Willingdon and Stone Cross clearly, and responding quickly to enquiries, pays off.

## Nearby

The nearest towns in the same council area are Hailsham (3 miles) and Heathfield (10 miles). Elsewhere in East Sussex, Eastbourne (4 miles), Seaford (7 miles), Newhaven (9 miles) and Bexhill-on-Sea (10 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 Polegate 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.
