I build websites for businesses in and around Lostock, the consultants, clinics, childminders and trades that work from home or a small unit rather than a shopfront. With no real high street here, Google is your shop window. Fixed prices from £295, words written for you, free mockup first.
Based in Bolton, minutes from Lostock. You deal with me directly.
Lostock is nearly all homes: quiet commuter streets around the railway station, with trains into Manchester and Middlebrook on the doorstep. What it does not have is a high street. There is no parade for a passer-by to wander down, which means a Lostock business is found online, or through people it already knows, and that is the whole list.
That shapes who works here. Lostock businesses tend to run from a home office, a van or a small unit: consultants and freelancers, tutors, physios and clinics, childminders, and the trades that look after the area's houses and gardens. For all of them, the website does the job a shopfront does elsewhere. It is the difference between "found you on Google, you looked proper" and never getting the call.
The other side of the coin: Lostock households are exactly the customers local trades want, and when they need a gardener, a decorator or a cleaner they search like everyone else. If you are a trade that covers Lostock, Ladybridge and Chew Moor, saying so on a proper website is how you reach them. Nearer the retail park? There is a separate page for web design in Horwich.
Recent work includes a Bolton building firm, a Greater Manchester cleaning company and a consultant's personal site, each built to turn visitors into enquiries rather than to win design awards. See them, with full pricing, on the portfolio and pricing page.
Free ideas pages for the kinds of businesses that work in and around Lostock, what your site should include, what to skip, and why:
Yes. I am based in Bolton, minutes from Lostock, and I work with businesses here in person or remotely, whichever suits. That includes coming to you at home if that is where the business runs from, which in Lostock it usually is.
Fixed prices, the same everywhere I work: £295 for a one-page Launch site, £595 for a custom Starter site, and £895 for a done-for-you multi-page site with all the copywriting handled. First year of hosting is free, there is no lock-in contract, and you see a free mockup before you commit to anything.
For a home-based business it matters more, not less. With no premises to walk past, your website is the only place a stranger can size you up before calling. It also does not have to show your home address; a proper site can list the areas you cover without telling anyone where you live.
This page is about Lostock on the west side of Bolton, between Heaton and Horwich, with Middlebrook on its doorstep. If you are in Lostock Hall, Lostock Gralam or another Lostock entirely, I can still build your site, almost all of the work happens remotely anyway.
Yes. Ladybridge, Chew Moor, Markland Hill, Deane and the Middlebrook side of Horwich are all a few minutes from Lostock and all covered, in person and remotely.
Everything about how I work, pricing and what is included is on the main web design in Bolton page, and there is a neighbouring page for web design in Heaton.
Tell me a bit about your Lostock business and I will put together a free mockup so you can see what your site could look like, no cost and no obligation. Or just message me and we will have a chat.
