Around Verwood.
Verwood sits on the Dorset side of the Hampshire border, on heathland at the edge of the New Forest, and was once known for its pottery before growing into a sizeable modern commuter town for Bournemouth and Ringwood. Most of the housing is relatively recent, bungalows and family homes on quiet estates, with a lot of retired households. Those customers tend to research carefully and prefer a named local person, so a website with a real face, local reviews and clear coverage of the nearby villages tends to perform well.
Ferndown (6 miles), Wimborne Minster (7 miles) and Blandford Forum (13 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Across the boundary into the next council area, Ringwood (5 miles) and Fordingbridge (5 miles) are also close. A longer drive takes in Christchurch (11 miles), Bournemouth (11 miles) and Poole (12 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Inside Verwood, the site can name areas such as Three Legged Cross, Ebblake, Woodlands, Edmondsham, St Leonards and Alderholt.
Verwood addresses fall in the BH postcode area, about 73 miles east of Exeter, where we are based.
