Why Setting Up Your Online Presence Properly Matters
This isn’t about just getting a website live.
It’s about making sure your business can actually be found
and that everything you build supports that from the start.
Because if your business isn’t visible, your website won’t bring you enquiries.
What You Need to Set Up Your Business Online
What This Helps You Avoid
Right now, most new businesses:
Build a website too early
Choose the wrong platforms
Don’t think about how they’ll be found
End up having to redo everything later
This call helps you avoid that.
What Happens During the Chat
The call is relaxed and practical.
We talk through your business, your ideas, and where you’re at right now — so you can understand what you actually need online (and what you don’t).
You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of:
How your customers are likely to find you - Whether you need a website yet (or not) - What platforms make sense for your business - The right next step for you
There is no obligation to buy anything.
What Happens Next After Your Foundations Check
From here, you might go on to:
A full website build

Or you may simply leave with a clear plan and build things yourself
There’s no pressure — just the right next step for you.
After your New Business Online Foundations Check you receive a written Summary outlining how I recommend you start your Online Foundations correctly so that Google understands your Business and potential customers learn about your Business and become an enquiry.

Before you build anything, understand this
When you’re starting a business, it’s easy to feel like you need to do everything at once.
In reality, you just need to know what matters first.
This is something I explain in more detail in our latest blog — This is exactly what we break down in our latest blog — what actually makes the difference early on.

FAQs
-
Not always.
For some businesses, starting with platforms like social media or Etsy can work well in the early stages.
The key is understanding how people will find you.
If your customers are searching on Google, having your own website gives you much more control and visibility.
This is something I help you figure out based on your business, rather than assuming a website is always the first step.
-
There isn’t just one step.
Being found on Google usually involves a combination of:
having a clear business offering
setting up your Google Business Profile properly
having a website that Google understands
building content over time
Most importantly, everything needs to work together.
That’s what I help you set up from the beginning, so you’re not trying to fix it later.
-
This is one of the most important stages — and often the most rushed.
Before building a website, you should be clear on:
what your business offers
who your customers are
how people will find you
what your website actually needs to do
Without that clarity, it’s very easy to build something that looks good but doesn’t bring enquiries.
-
It depends on your goals.
Etsy can be a great place to start, especially for visibility within the platform.
But you don’t own that platform or your customer journey.
A website gives you:
more control
the ability to be found on Google
a place to grow your business long-term
I help you decide if and when that step makes sense for you.
-
This is for businesses that are just starting out.
The focus is on helping you decide what you need to set up and how to move forward.
A Visibility Check is for businesses that already have a website or online presence and want to understand why it isn’t performing.
-
You’ll leave with a clear understanding of what your business needs next.
That might be:
moving forward with a website
setting up your Google Business Profile
improving your visibility
or taking some time to build things yourself
There’s no pressure — just clarity on the right direction for you.
-
At the moment, yes.
As this is a new service, I’m offering a limited number of sessions free of charge while I develop it.
It’s something I plan to introduce as a paid service in the future, whereby the Price will be £90.
Part of my Support for Small Businesses is to write Blogs to help you understand how to ensure Your New Website brings you the enquiries you expect. I recommend this one to start…….
