I'm Laurence, and I'm based in Ramsbottom. Haslingden is about fifteen minutes away, over toward the Rossendale side of the valley. Close enough that I know the area well, and close enough that if something needs sorting in person, I can be there quickly.
Haslingden has a solid mix of independent businesses along the high street and beyond. Shops, trades, professional services. Plenty have been running successfully for years on reputation alone. But when someone new to the area pulls out their phone and searches for what you do, you need to be there. A good website makes that happen.
I build websites from scratch. No templates, no WordPress, no drag-and-drop builders. Every site is hand-coded, fast, mobile-friendly and built to rank on Google. From £499 as a one-off build, or from £30 a month fully managed, which covers hosting, SSL, updates and ongoing support. You don't have to worry about any of the technical side.
I also set up business email on your own domain from £8 a month. Proper Microsoft Exchange or 365, not a cheap forwarder. For local SEO, I make sure your business shows up when people search for your trade in Haslingden or across East Lancashire. That's £199 setup plus £20 a month to keep things moving.
IT support is available too. Remote help from £65 an hour, onsite from £85 for the first hour. And if you want your website working for you around the clock, I build AI chatbots that handle enquiries even when you're busy. From £199 setup plus £20 a month.
