What actually works in Blackpool

Blackpool’s economy is dominated by the visitor trade — hospitality, attractions, accommodation and an enormous seasonal swing — plus a large public sector, a growing energy and offshore services presence on the Fylde, and the retail and services for 140,000 residents. For the hospitality half, the single highest-value thing is not the website: it is the Google Business Profile, the photographs in it, the review count and the opening hours. A visitor choosing where to eat is choosing from a map and will never reach your homepage.

Where the website does earn is accommodation — winning the direct booking back off the platform that took fifteen per cent of it — and anything with dates, party sizes and add-ons attached. The nearest comparable work is Roch Sweets, where standard e-commerce could not model how the product was actually bought, so the buying journey was written rather than configured.

What you get, and what it costs

Growth blocks from £250 a month, spent on whatever moves the needle rather than a fixed checklist. No percentage of ad spend, no management fee and no minimum term — if it stops being worth it, you stop.

• The Google Business Profile done properly first, because for most local searches the map sits above everything a website can win.
• A page for each service you genuinely offer, so every search has somewhere of its own to land instead of competing with the homepage.
• The technical work that decides whether Google can read the site at all — speed, structure, internal links, and the markup that puts you in the right results.
• Content written around the questions your customers actually ask, not a keyword list.
• Monthly reporting of what changed and what it earned, including the phone calls, which is where most local enquiries arrive and almost nobody counts them.
