SMART Sites

A SMART Site from Thomson Local is a single page website that’s packed full of features. And due to their relatively small size, they are also extremely easy to get up and running, sometimes in as little as 24 hours.

This makes them ideal for:

  • New businesses, startups and sole traders on tight budgets.
  • Businesses that only need a basic presence online or need to get online fast.
  • Local businesses that need a web address on their business cards, vehicles or letterheads for customers to get in touch.

If this sounds like you then a SMART Site from Thomson Local might be the smartest choice for you and your business.

To find out more, call us on 03330 145 045. Lines are open between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday. Or alternatively, drop us a quick email at info@thomsonlocal.com.

Mobile first design

Due to the increasing number of people browsing the internet from their smartphones, Google now operates from a “mobile first” standpoint. Essentially this means that your website will be assessed by Google on how well it caters to users visiting from their mobile phones.

Thankfully, your Thomson Local Smart Site has been built from the ground up for mobile devices. This responsive design means that your Smart Site can adapt to all screen sizes and device types to ensure that everyone gets the same high-quality browsing experience.

All things being equal, a website that offers a high-end experience for smartphone users can enjoy a boost in search engine rankings over a website that doesn’t.

We never used to receive this traffic and practically since signing up this has given us a large amount of business.
