The work, and who it is for in Woking

Woking’s base is corporate head offices out of all proportion to its size — the town has long punched above its weight for company headquarters — plus motorsport and advanced engineering around the McLaren campus, professional services, technology, and a commuter population 25 minutes from Waterloo. Most of the money is B2B or national rather than local trade.

Which means a Woking page is worth having and is not where most Woking businesses will earn. If your customers are national, the sector pages on this site are the more useful read; the town page matters mainly because a supplier search still runs through it. Both things can be true and it is worth being honest about which one applies to you.

The nearest comparable work is Vehicles 2 Lease, an FCA-authorised leasing broker in a market where everyone shows the same product at nearly the same price. The listings were restructured around a clear pricing hierarchy and the enquiry journey rebuilt with fewer fields and an obvious next step; the site answers in 0.19 seconds with zero layout shift, and the client reports form conversion moving from roughly 1% to roughly 4% — their figure, not one measured here.

Worth saying plainly rather than hoping you do not ask: I am in Manchester, not Woking. There is no local office and this page does not pretend there is one. Two builds in Northern Ireland and one in the Republic of Ireland have run entirely remotely without difficulty, and what you should insist on from any remote supplier is the same list I would insist on — the domain registered in your name, the hosting in your own account, a full working copy of the site if you ever leave, and no exit fee. All four are standard here and they are written down on the pricing page.

And before any website work at all: the Google Business Profile. It is free, it takes an afternoon, and for a local business it decides the map pack that sits above every result a website can win. That is an awkward thing to put on a web designer’s page and it is still the right first move.

What you get, and what it costs

The same three numbers as everybody else, published rather than quoted on request: from £500 for the build, from £50 a month for hosting and care, and growth blocks from £250 a month if and when the site should start earning more. No setup fee, no management fee, no percentage of ad spend, and no minimum term on anything.

• A bespoke build rather than a page-builder assembly, so the site is fast on a phone rather than fast on your laptop.
• A page for each service and each area you actually sell in, so every search has somewhere of its own to land instead of competing with the homepage.
• Editable by you, with a walkthrough at handover.
• The domain in your name and the hosting in your account, with a full working copy if you ever leave.
• Titles, structure and metadata written around the searches your customers actually run — not around a keyword dump.
