Websites For Tradeys
When someone’s looking for a local Wigan trade, they’re probably going to search for it on Google, right?
That means if you don’t have a website, they’re unlikely to ever find you. It doesn’t matter how good you are at your job; if a customer can’t find you online, they’ll never even know your name.
Here at Knights Digital, we can remedy that situation.

Making a Good Impression
Sure, you might have a good reputation among your Wigan customers, and that might generate some decent leads by word of mouth. You might plug your services on your Facebook or Twitter accounts, or you could even have set up a dedicated Facebook page for your business.
Plenty of trades have entries in local online directories or are listed on trade review sites like Checkatrade. You might think that’s enough, but it’s not.
Let’s say someone hears about you from a friend or spots your Facebook page in their feed. However much they trust their buddy (or Mark Zuckerberg’s algorithm, for that matter), the first thing they’re going to do is search for your business online. If your website doesn’t show up in the search results, you can be sure some other Wigan business will, which instantly makes them more appealing to your would-be customer.
Takeaway Points
- Your reputation is great
- Show it off online
- No Website = Rubbish Search Visibility
Getting Seen
To make the most of your local business, you need to make yourself as visible as possible. We know what you’re thinking—websites are for big companies with dozens of staff and a massive advertising budget.
The thing is, they don’t have to be.
With the right team behind you, you can get your own website that’s effective and affordable at the same time.
Takeaway Points
- You don't need a big budget for a website
- You can compete with the big companies online
Northern Boys Love Tradespeople
Being based in Atherton, we know the sheer abundance of local grafters working across Wigan and the surrounding areas.
As a region, we have our pick of talented and dedicated tradespeople covering every sector, from odd jobs and minor repairs to extensions, conversions, and major construction projects. Of course, with so many trades to choose from, it’s even more important that you stand out from the crowd.
For years, we ran an agency in the city centre, and we dealt with several large clients that benefited from the tailored web development and SEO packages that we offered. We soon realised that this put us out of reach of the microbusinesses and local tradespeople in and around Wigan, and that felt wrong to us.
We believed that a smaller budget for web design and development shouldn’t mean a less effective online presence, and we set out to prove ourselves right!
Takeaway Points
- We're based in Atherton, where there's loads of local tradespeople
- We can work with businesses of any size
- We don't think a small budget should mean a rubbish website
Here for You, However Large or Small
With our lean, mean web development team, we found a way to deliver the quality, skill, and strategy benefits of a large agency while keeping within the budget of our smaller local clients. We wanted to prove that the online world is a level playing field where even the smallest businesses can compete with the big boys, and we’ve done exactly that.
Our clients love our work, too, as we build bespoke websites carefully tailored to meet the needs of local Wigan businesses. We don’t use AI or cut-and-pasted text. Every site is developed and built from scratch, as unique as each of our clients.
You get an incredible site for an incredible price, one that offers a great return on investment and makes you more visible to your customers.
Takeaway Points
- We've got a great, lean, web team
- A battle tested process for trades
- We hand craft everything, no cut and pasted AI rubbish
