Digital Marketing
in Flintshire
Flintshire is the busiest corner of North Wales: factories and engineering firms on Deeside, market towns like Mold and Holywell, and Chester just over the border pulling customers both ways. I help Flintshire businesses win enquiries with Google Ads, websites and SEO, without paying for an agency's overheads. From Abergele, Holywell is about 25 minutes along the A55.

A Different Kind of North Wales County
Flintshire doesn't run on tourism the way the coast further west does. It's North Wales's manufacturing heartland. Airbus builds aircraft wings at Broughton, Toyota makes engines on Deeside, and Deeside Industrial Park is full of manufacturers, distributors and the firms that supply them.
Then there are the market towns. Mold, the county town, has a street market every Wednesday and Saturday. Holywell, Flint and Buckley have high streets full of independents. And along the Dee coast at Talacre and Mostyn there's a holiday trade of its own.
Most people here speak English day to day. 11.6% speak Welsh, according to the 2021 Census, so a bilingual site is a nice touch in Flintshire rather than a must. That changes quickly the further west you go.

Who I Help in Flintshire
Manufacturers and B2B Suppliers
You're not selling to the public, you're selling to buyers searching for a part, a process or a supplier. Google Ads on the right technical terms, and a website that answers a buyer's questions, will do more than any amount of social media.
Trades on Both Sides of the Border
Builders, electricians, plumbers and installers on Deeside often work in Chester too. Ads and Business Profiles can cover both, with the areas you want switched on and the ones you don't switched off.
Market Town Independents
Shops, cafés and salons in Mold, Holywell, Flint and Buckley. Reviews, a sharp Business Profile and a few well-aimed Facebook and Instagram ads usually make the difference.
Parks and Attractions on the Coast
Talacre and the Dee coast pull visitors from Merseyside and Cheshire. Same story as the rest of the coast: get the bookings in early, then ease off. More on holiday park marketing.

The Chester Problem (and Opportunity)
Flintshire postcodes start with CH, same as Chester's. CH5 is Deeside, CH6 is Flint, CH7 is Mold and Buckley, CH8 is Holywell. Directories, and some ad settings, happily lump you in with Cheshire, and plenty of your customers drive into Chester to work or shop.
That cuts both ways. If you only want Welsh customers, your ads need fencing in properly or you'll pay for clicks from Ellesmere Port. If you'd happily take Chester work, target it on purpose and give it its own page. Either way it should be a decision, not an accident.

Meeting Up
Flintshire is a straight run east along the A55 from Abergele, so meeting in person is easy. With manufacturers especially, I'd rather see the factory floor once than guess from a brochure. After that it's calls, email and a monthly report that says what the money did, in plain English.
One person does the work, start to finish. That's me. No contracts either: if I'm not getting you results, you can leave.

Questions People Ask
Do you work with manufacturers on Deeside?
Yes, happily. B2B marketing is mostly Google Ads, SEO and a website that answers technical questions properly. I'll also tell you honestly if your buyers don't search online much, because some don't, and then ads are a waste of money.
Can you stop my Google Ads showing in Chester?
Yes. Location targeting can include or exclude areas by postcode district or radius. It's also worth checking the setting that decides whether Google shows ads to people who are only interested in an area, not actually in it. Get that wrong and you pay for clicks from people who'll never visit.
Do you do SEO in Flintshire?
Yes. My SEO in Flint and Flintshire page goes into the detail. Short version: fix the website, sort the Business Profile, write the pages people are actually searching for, and give it months, not days.
Do I need a bilingual website in Flintshire?
Not usually. Most of your customers will search in English. If you work with the council or public bodies, or you want to show you're a Welsh business, a Welsh version is a good touch, and I'll work with you or your translator on the Welsh text.
How much does a website cost?
One-page sites start from £600, business sites from £1,500 and online shops from £3,000. You get a fixed quote before I start, with no hourly surprises.

Fancy a Chat?
Tell me what you sell and who buys it. I'll tell you honestly whether Google Ads, SEO or a better website would make the most difference, and if it's none of them, I'll say so.
