## About Rochdale

Rochdale is a former cotton town on the north-east edge of Greater Manchester, best known as the home of the modern co-operative movement. It has strong neighbourhood loyalties and a lot of older terraced housing, which keeps roofers, damp specialists, plumbers and builders in steady demand. Customers here tend to want a straight answer on price and someone who is genuinely local, so a site that is clear about which parts of the borough you serve does more than any amount of polish.

## Nearby

Heywood (3 miles) and Middleton (5 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Across the boundary into the next council area, Whitworth (3 miles), Oldham (5 miles), Bury (6 miles) and Bacup (6 miles) are also close. Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.

We are based in Exeter and work with Rochdale 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.
