Websites for small businesses across Northumberland, from Blyth and Cramlington to Morpeth, Alnwick and up to Berwick. We’re in Newcastle, so meeting in person is easy, and every site is priced as one fixed quote before work starts.
Free first call. No obligation. A reply within one working day.
Picture a farm shop outside Alnwick. Most of the year it ticks along nicely. Then December arrives and the Christmas orders start: turkeys, beef joints, hampers, collection slots. The orders come in by phone, by email and on scraps of paper at the till. Someone types them into a spreadsheet at night, and every year at least one order goes missing.
The problem isn’t demand. It’s the gap between someone deciding to buy and the order landing somewhere sensible.
A proper order form on the website fixes most of it: products, collection dates and deposits in one place. An automation then confirms each order, adds it to the collection list and sends a reminder the day before. Get the site showing up for “farm shop Alnwick” and “Christmas turkey Northumberland”, and the busiest month gets calmer instead of harder.
How people in Northumberland search:
Customers search for Morpeth, Hexham or Alnwick rather than “Northumberland”. Name the towns you reach and show jobs you’ve done there.
The coast, Hadrian’s Wall and the National Park bring visitors who search on their phones. Accommodation, cafés and attractions need fast booking and up-to-date information.
With fewer competitors in each town, a well-built site and a complete Google Business Profile can reach the top of local searches.
If you travel to customers, set your Google service area accurately and list the towns on your website.
Our guide to website design for small businesses covers everything else a good site needs.
We also have a dedicated page for website design in Hexham.
