Gateshead runs on two economies at once: one of the biggest trading estates in Europe, and a cultural quarter on the Quays that pulls visitors in from everywhere. The websites those two need have almost nothing in common.
Credible sites for firms on the trading estate.
Pages that catch people heading for the Quays.
Get found before customers set off to shop.
One fixed figure, in writing.
Most of the business activity in Gateshead sits in a handful of very distinct places, and knowing which one you are in changes what the website has to do.
Around 700 businesses and 20,000 people on one estate. Overwhelmingly B2B, where buyers want specification, capability and lead times rather than a hero image.
Independent retailers here compete against one of the largest shopping centres in Europe, so the site has to sell what it cannot: specialism, knowledge and people.
Culture, hospitality and creative businesses serving visitors who have travelled in for an event and are deciding on a phone an hour beforehand.
Industrial and trade units, logistics and service businesses working across the region rather than for local footfall.
Established residential high streets with independent shops, salons and professional services serving a loyal local catchment.
Trades and service businesses covering out towards the Tyne Valley, where the service area matters more than the address.
Our free health check shows how your site performs for Gateshead searches.
Then it tells you exactly what would move you up.
Gateshead calls tend to come from one of two places: a trade business invisible outside its own town, or a B2B firm whose site gives buyers nothing to evaluate.
People cross the bridge without noticing which side they are on. If you only target Gateshead terms you are invisible to a large share of people who would happily use you.
Team Valley buyers want capability, accreditation, tolerances and lead times. A site built around lifestyle photography gives them nothing to evaluate.
Competing on range or price is a losing game. Sites that win here sell expertise, provenance and a reason to deal with a person.
Blaydon, Whickham, Felling, Low Fell, Birtley and Dunston are separate searches. One page listing them all ranks for none of them.
Local knowledge is not a line on a web page. It changes what goes on the site.
Our Gateshead SEO page covers ranking for Gateshead and Newcastle searches without faking an address.
The same four steps for a Team Valley manufacturer and a Low Fell salon, though what gets built looks very different.
Thirty minutes on your business, your buyers and whether you are selling to consumers or to other businesses. The answer changes everything after it.
A written proposal with the page list, the timeline and a fixed price. For B2B builds this includes which capability and spec pages to write.
Built on a private staging link. Industrial clients usually need a round of technical review, which we build into the timeline.
Go live with everything in your name, then a care plan or ongoing SEO depending on how fast you want to grow.

Each area has a page of its own, written for that area rather than duplicated. Already have a site and need it found? See SEO in Gateshead.
Three recent builds for businesses working across Gateshead and the wider Tyne and Wear area.
A showroom competing with national suppliers, so the site leans hard on local fitting and aftercare.
A professional firm that needed to look established before the first phone call.
Stripped back and rebuilt around speaking enquiries and the book.
B2B and manufacturing builds often need more technical content, so they tend to need more than a standard brochure site.
A fast, mobile first site with the pages you need, hosting and emails set up. Paid monthly, keeping cash in the business for everything else.
The build and the monthly local SEO together. The site makes you credible, the SEO gets you found. On a 12 month minimum term.
Hosting, security, daily backups, updates and your content changes handled for you.

Yes, a good share of our work is B2B. Those sites are built around capability, specification and credibility rather than impulse, with enquiry routes that suit a longer buying decision.
The whole borough. That includes the town centre and Gateshead Quays, Team Valley and the Metrocentre, Low Fell, Saltwell and Bensham, and out to Felling, Whickham, Blaydon, Ryton and Birtley. Most are under half an hour from our North Shields office.
It helps if you use it. Team Valley is searched by name, so it belongs in your content, your Google profile and your schema rather than being left as an address in the footer.
Almost certainly. Your customers cross the river without thinking about it, so your keyword strategy should too. That usually means separate pages rather than one page mentioning both.
Not on range or price, but you are not trying to. Independent retailers win on specialism, knowledge and service, and the site needs to lead with those rather than a product grid.
Yes. Expect spec led content, capability pages, accreditation logos placed where buyers look, and a quote process that matches how you actually price work.
One for each town you genuinely want work from. For most Gateshead trades that is five or six, written properly rather than duplicated.
Tell us what you are planning and we will come back within one working day with honest advice and a guide price. No tech speak, no sales pitch.
Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm. Based at North Tyneside Business Centre, North Shields.
