NO NONSENSE.
JUST ANSWERS.
You’ve got questions about how to grow your business online, and I’ve got the answers. No technical fluff, no hidden agency costs—just clear advice for Lancashire brands ready to evolve.
Web Design & Building
What is the difference between a HTML and a WordPress website?
Think of a HTML site as a custom-built high-performance engine. It’s incredibly fast, very secure, and built specifically for your business. It’s perfect if you want a set-and-forget “flagship” look. WordPress is more like a modular showroom; it allows you to easily log in and change your own text or photos. I build both using custom code to ensure they aren’t bloated like typical agency sites. If you aren’t sure which one you need, contact me for a quick chat and I’ll help you decide.
How long does it take to build a professional website?
I value your time. A high-quality local trade site usually takes 2-3 weeks. More complex builds for dealerships or sports clubs can take 4-6 weeks. I keep the process simple: we chat, I build, we refine, and we launch. No endless meetings, just results.
Will my website work on mobile phones?
Absolutely. Over 80% of local Lancashire searches happen on a phone. Every site I build is mobile-first, meaning it looks sharp and works flawlessly whether someone is on an iPhone in Blackburn or a laptop in Clitheroe.
Local SEO & GMB
How do I get my business into the Google “Map Pack”?
This is all about Google My Business (GMB). Google looks at your location, your reviews, and how well your profile is “engineered.” I technicality optimize your profile to ensure you show up in those top 3 local results. If you aren’t there, you’re losing leads to your competitors every single day. I can perform a free local SEO check for you to see why you’re being outranked.
Do I really need SEO if I’m a local trade or showroom?
Yes. When someone in the Ribble Valley needs a “joiner near me” or a “motorcycle service,” they go to Google. If your site isn’t built with the right technical signals, you don’t exist in their world. I build those signals into the very foundation of your site.
Social Media & PR
What platforms should my business be on?
You don’t need to be everywhere; you just need to be where your customers are. For local Lancashire trades, Facebook is king. For visual brands and dealerships, Instagram and TikTok are vital. I help you focus on the channels that actually generate enquiries rather than just “vanity likes.”
Can you manage my social media for me?
I certainly can. I provide a “Pride” mentality—managing your PR and community engagement so you can focus on running your business. I create professional graphics, tell your brand’s story, and handle the interaction. Drop me an email at info@lzwdigital.co.uk to discuss a monthly management plan.
Pricing & Support
How much does a bespoke website cost?
I don’t have a “one size fits all” price because every business has different needs. However, I pride myself on being affordable for Lancashire businesses. I offer fixed, upfront quotes with no hidden fees. You get flagship quality without the city-centre agency price tag. For a tailored number, request a personalised quote here.
Do I own my website and domain name?
100% yes. Some agencies try to “handcuff” you to their platform. I don’t. You own your site, your domain, and your data. I am here to help you grow, not to trap you.
