## About Shrewsbury

Shrewsbury is the county town of Shropshire, with a medieval centre wrapped in a loop of the Severn and a large number of timber-framed and listed buildings. It is the commercial centre for a wide rural area reaching towards the Welsh border, so local businesses commonly travel a long way. Period-property skills are genuinely valuable here, and the river makes flood-related work a recurring local need. A website that states the rural coverage clearly and shows care with older buildings fits what local customers look for.

## Nearby

Inside Shropshire, the closest places are Wem (10 miles), Much Wenlock (11 miles), Church Stretton (12 miles) and Broseley (13 miles). Further out, Dawley (12 miles), Oakengates (13 miles) and Telford (13 miles) are within commuting distance. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.

We are based in Exeter and work with Shrewsbury 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.
