## About Pontardawe

Pontardawe is a Swansea Valley town with an industrial past in tinplate, a tall church spire and a well-used arts centre. It is largely residential now, with many residents commuting to Swansea and Neath, and terraced housing climbing the hillsides. Local trades benefit from naming nearby villages such as Alltwen, Rhyd-y-fro and Trebanos, since residents think of these as part of the same community.

## 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.
