How Washington searches

Washington is part of Sunderland on paper, but it behaves like a town of its own online. Web design Washington customers respond to reflects that.

The villages

Columbia, Concord, Fatfield, Oxclose, Barmston, Usworth and the rest are searched by name, often for trades, childcare and home services.

The Galleries and the town centre

Shoppers and visitors using the centre for everyday shopping and services, searching on a phone as they go.

The automotive supply chain

Suppliers around the Nissan plant and the industrial estates win work by explaining exactly what they make and the standards they meet.

Business parks

Office and industrial units full of firms buying services from each other, usually searched for by service rather than town.

Visitors and days out

Washington Old Hall and the Wetland Centre bring families and visitors who need somewhere to eat and things to do nearby.

Commuters on the A1 and A19

A central position means many residents work across Tyne and Wear, searching from work during the day and from home at night.

Common problems on Washington business websites

These come up again and again when Washington businesses ask us to take a look.

Saying Sunderland when customers say Washington

Residents search for Washington or their village. A site that only mentions Sunderland misses most of them.

Suppliers with brochure sites

Firms selling into the automotive supply chain need capability pages, quality standards and examples of work, not a single page.

No pages for the villages

Few local websites mention the villages they serve, even though those are the searches with the least competition.

A neglected Google profile

Old photos, missing services and unanswered reviews let competitors overtake you. Google's own local ranking guidance explains what Google looks at.

Web design Washington questions

Should my business say Washington or Sunderland?

Lead with Washington and the villages you serve, because that is what local people search for. Add Sunderland where you genuinely work there too.

Can you build a website for an automotive supplier?

Yes. Supplier sites need to show what you make, the quality standards you work to and who you already supply. We lay the site out so a buyer can find those in seconds.

Do I need a page for each Washington village?

Not every one, but the villages that bring you the best work. A few well written pages will outperform a long list of copied ones.

How soon could a Washington website go live?

A smaller site can be live in as little as ten days once we have your content and photos. Larger capability sites take a few weeks, and we agree the launch date up front.
