Marketing for Bath Businesses

Unfortunately, many businesses are being left behind. Why? Because many independent business owners and founders offer top-tier services but lack digital marketing knowledge or strategy.

Enter CreateTheWeb.

We started small in Bath, helping local businesses grow by creating first-rate websites for a fraction of our competitor’s rates.

Our services were affordable, simple, and most importantly, results-driven.

Before our nationwide reach, Bath was our focus, and this success allowed us to gain the experience and results to achieve our milestones today.

Keep reading to understand our story of how we helped local Bath businesses kickstart their digital marketing presence, and what your small business can learn.

Bath’s economy is BOOMING.

Those lucky enough to visit instantly think of artisan coffee shops, bakeries, tailors, high-end audio retailers, independent restaurants, and so much more.

However, there was a common pattern among these businesses. Most of them weren’t online. And if they were, they weren’t taking advantage of their channels or websites.

They were leaving money on the table.

• Websites that weren’t mobile-friendly
• Zero presence in search rankings
• Strangers to local Bath SEO
• No Google Business Profile
• Lack of confidence with digital marketing
• Small marketing budget
• No marketing tools

Our founders, Otis and Luke, started CreateTheWeb after success with YouTube channels and E-commerce stores, learn more about their story here.

They researched, read, practised, trained, strategised, implemented, and grafted tirelessly.

Aside from talent, success was born through their knowledge and passion for digital marketing, and their stores became highly successful.

So, they combined their strengths to help other businesses discover the fruits of online marketing for small businesses.

Otis roamed the streets of Bath and personally knocked on doors, talking to small business owners about digital marketing.

He offered simple advice and effective solutions. They were realistic and accessible.

That early work laid the foundation for CreateTheWeb today: helping real local businesses in Bath solve real problems with data-driven digital marketing solutions.

And eight years down the line, we still help our first clients succeed today.

Look at some of these local businesses we worked with and how we skyrocketed their growth with digital marketing.

Industry: Bespoke Mirrors

The Big Problem: Old website, no SEO, and zero online presence

Looking Glass of Bath has been creating tailored glass windows for years in Bath. It was a thriving business. But without a new website, it was nearly impossible to find online.

Their only source of business was word of mouth.

We built them a stunning mobile-friendly and SEO-focused website to show off the incredible products and services.

Every page was optimised with local keywords. We also started a blog about tips and design to bolster their SEO with quality content.

The result? A surge in traffic and enquiries.

Here is what they said:

“We have found CreateTheWeb to be very professional, helpful, and creative in setting up our website and would recommend them unreservedly to anyone wanting a new website built for them. The finished design and operation of the website has been perfect.”

Industry: Building & Construction

The Big Problem: Old website and no visibility

Taylors of Bath is a family-run business with loyal customers, but they had zero online visibility compared to competitors.

This meant they were missing out on new customers.

Our website overhaul gave them life. We built it for speed and construction focused SEO with local keywords and boosted their on-page scores.

After several months, Taylors of Bath ranked number one in local search and enquiries increased significantly.

Industry: High-end audio

The Big Problem: A niche audience and a poor website

Audience Hifi dominates Bath’s audio equipment scene but wasn’t getting the online attention it deserves.

Their website wasn’t ranking; it wasn’t converting.

We used an E-commerce SEO strategy with long-tail keywords, similar to that used on Otis’ and Luke’s online stores.

Additionally, we improved product listings and created content around high-end audio gear.

This boosted online sales, improved search rankings for local and main target keywords, and increased online traffic.

Industry: Church and Charity

The Big Problem: Zero online presence

As a charity and community church, Beechen Cliff Methodist Church wanted to promote events to raise money for the community.

Marketing for charities is hard, but it’s even harder when you don’t have a website. They relied on posters for marketing.

We created an affordable and simple charity website to update events and provide contact information, increasing engagement within the community.

CreateTheWeb makes the difference. We focus on simplicity and affordability to create results.

Here is how we helped local Bath businesses win:

We helped these businesses rank for local SEO using location-centred terms.

Optimising websites’ on-page SEO and gaining quality backlinks kickstarts true growth.

A slow, confusing website can damage your business, and you could lose customers.

Our websites are first-rate, no matter your budget. They’re built to convert, rank, and outdo your competitors.

We create quality blog posts and helpful FAQs to answer REAL questions. Many digital marketing agencies rinse and repeat content; this is a poor practice.

Our researched, helpful content drives organic traffic to your website and builds authority within your field.

We don’t just claim to know; we have experience. When CreateTheWeb handles your social media, you have two proven YouTube experts growing your business online.

We help clients revolutionise growth through social media platforms.

At CreateTheWeb, we’re all about the stats. This is what matters. It comes down to results and your ROI.

We use analytics to improve our marketing. This can result in small tweaks or changing website placements. Either way, every decision is based on data.

Are you still unsure if you should invest in digital marketing for your business?

If you’re not visible online, your competitors are stealing your business.

Well, consider these stats:

• Brightlocal reports that 98% of customers use the internet to discover local businesses.
• According to Carrie-ann Sudlow, an optimised Google profile gets 7x more clicks.
• Think with Google suggests that a one-second delay in website load time can reduce conversions by up to 20%.

We are proud that our early work contributed to the growth of Bath’s local economy and charities. Many of them were digital marketing strangers, unaware of its potential.

But we gave them accessible tools to succeed.

Eight years later, we still work with some of these businesses. That experience defines us today and shapes how we work with companies nationwide.

Don’t let the overwhelming world of digital marketing hinder your business growth. We work with businesses of all sizes across the UK, local or national.

It doesn’t have to be intimidating or complex. Let us open the door to maximise your business potential. We’re still passionate about helping all businesses as we were when we started.
