Mako Digital builds WordPress websites and delivers local SEO for businesses in Leigh that need a professional online presence without the agency price tag. We help Leigh trades, service businesses and local companies get found on Google and turn visitors into enquiries.
Leigh has a strong mix of independent trades, service businesses, and high street retailers — most relying on local customers finding them through search. If your website is not pulling its weight, or you do not have one yet, that is where we come in.

We build websites that earn their keep. Every site is designed to make your Leigh business look professional and make it easy for visitors to take action.
We use WordPress for every build. It powers over 40% of the web, it is trusted, and it gives you full ownership of your site. You can log in, update your own content, and add pages as your business grows. No proprietary systems, no vendor lock-in. Your site, your data, your control.
Starting out or running a focused service? A one-page site covers everything on a single, clean page. If you have multiple services, locations, or need a blog, a multi-page setup gives each area room to rank on its own terms in Google.
Most visitors will arrive on a phone. If your site is slow or looks wrong on mobile, they leave. We design mobile-first and optimise every page for speed — because a fast site keeps people on the page and signals quality to Google. Every Leigh website we build scores well on Core Web Vitals.
Every page has a clear purpose and a clear next step. Visible phone numbers, contact forms above the fold, and calls-to-action that guide visitors toward getting in touch. The goal is always the same — turn a visitor into a lead for your Leigh business.
No jargon, no mystery. Here is exactly what happens when you work with us on a web design project in Leigh.
You tell us what you need — a new site, a redesign, SEO, or all three. We have a straightforward conversation, ask the right questions, and come back with a clear, fixed-price quote. No ballpark figures. No hourly rates that spiral. What we quote is what you pay.
We design your site around your business, your customers, and your goals. You see the design before it goes live and get the chance to shape it. We build on WordPress, optimise for mobile and speed, and set up your SEO foundations from day one — titles, schema, structured data, the lot.
Once you are happy, we push the site live. We set up Google Search Console, submit your sitemap, configure analytics, and make sure everything is indexed correctly. If you are migrating from another platform, we handle the domain transfer, email setup, SSL and redirects.
Your site does not get abandoned after launch. We provide hosting, backups, security monitoring and ongoing support. If you want monthly SEO, content updates, or new pages added as your business grows, we handle that too. You focus on running your Leigh business — we keep your website working for it.
Getting your site built is half the job. The other half is making sure the right people find it. Our local SEO services are designed to put Leigh businesses in front of customers who are actively searching.
Most people searching for a service in Leigh use Google. They type things like "electrician Leigh", "accountant near me", or "web designer Leigh" — and they pick from the first few results. If your business is not showing up in those results, you are losing work to competitors who are. That is what local SEO fixes.
SEO is not a quick fix. We are upfront about that. Expect three to six months before you see consistent improvements. But when the foundations are right and the work is sustained, the long-term return makes it one of the most cost-effective ways to generate leads for a Leigh business.
Transparent pricing with no hidden costs. What we quote is what you pay.
A single, clean page covering your business, services and contact details. Perfect for trades, start-ups and service businesses in Leigh that need a professional online presence fast.

See Full DetailsLeigh is not a suburb of Manchester. It is a town with its own identity, its own high street, and its own customer base. A web designer that understands Leigh builds your site and your SEO around that reality, not a generic template swapped out for every postcode.
We understand the kind of businesses that operate here — trades serving the local housing stock across Leigh, Atherton and Tyldesley, service companies covering the A580 corridor, hospitality venues competing for footfall on Bradshawgate and the town centre. A large share of Leigh searches are "near me" and service-led — people want someone local, fast, and reliable. That context shapes the keywords we target, the content we write, and the way we structure your site.
Being local also means the working relationship is straightforward. You deal with us directly — no account managers, no outsourced developers in a different timezone. When you ring, someone who knows your project picks up. When you need a change, it gets done.
We also provide ongoing hosting and support after launch. Your site stays maintained, backed up, monitored, and updated. If you want regular SEO or content work on top of that, we can do that too. We are not a build-and-disappear agency — we stick around because that is how you get results.
We have built websites for businesses across the North West — from one-page sites for local tradespeople to full multi-page builds with SEO, schema markup and Google Search Console setup.
Our case studies show the full picture — the brief, the approach, the design, and the results. From electricians and recruitment agencies to e-commerce stores and print companies, every project is documented so you can see exactly what we do and how we do it.
View All Case StudiesWe design websites for Leigh businesses across a range of sectors. If your business depends on local customers, we can help.
Plumbers, sparks, roofers, plasterers, joiners, bricklayers, fencers. Leigh has no shortage of good tradespeople — but the ones with a decent website get the calls first. We make sure yours is one of them.
Accountants, solicitors, mortgage brokers, financial planners, consultants. Your website sets the tone before a client even picks up the phone. It needs to feel trustworthy, look sharp, and be easy to navigate.
Cafes, pubs, restaurants, takeaways, hairdressers, barbers, gift shops. People check your website or Google listing before they visit. If what they see looks outdated or half-finished, they go somewhere else.
Cleaners, dog walkers, mobile valeting, personal trainers, photographers, tutors. You do not need a complex site. You need one that ranks locally, looks professional, and gets the phone ringing.
We work with businesses throughout Leigh, Atherton, Tyldesley, Astley, Lowton, Westhoughton, Hindley, and across the wider Greater Manchester area. Whether you are on the high street or working from a van, if your customers are local, we can help you reach them.
Common questions from Leigh businesses looking for web design and SEO support.
A one-page website starts from £149.99 as a one-off build. Multi-page sites with dedicated service pages and local SEO landing pages are quoted based on scope. We give you a clear, fixed price before any work begins — no vague estimates and no surprise invoices. See our full pricing at makodigital.co.uk/pricing.
A one-page site is typically live within 5-7 working days. Multi-page builds with custom design, content creation and SEO setup usually take 2-4 weeks depending on complexity. We agree a timeline upfront and stick to it.
Yes — every site we build runs on WordPress. It powers over 40% of the web, gives you full ownership of your content, and makes it straightforward to update pages, add blog posts and expand your site as your business grows. No proprietary systems, no vendor lock-in.
Realistically, three to six months before you see consistent movement. It depends on your industry, the competition in Leigh and the surrounding area, and the state of your current site. We are honest about timelines because shortcuts do not last.
Absolutely. If your current site looks tired, loads slowly, or is not bringing in enquiries, we rebuild it from scratch on WordPress. Your existing content is migrated across, and the new site is designed to actually perform. We handle migrations from Wix, Squarespace, GoDaddy and other platforms.
Yes. Our hosting packages cover SSL, daily backups, security monitoring, and minor content changes. For businesses that want regular updates, SEO work, or new functionality added over time, we offer monthly support plans as well.
If your customers search for what you do on Google — and they almost certainly do — then yes. A website without SEO is like a shop with no sign. Local SEO puts you in front of people in Leigh and the surrounding areas who are actively looking for your services right now.
Web design is how your site looks, works, and converts visitors into enquiries. SEO is how people find your site on Google in the first place. You need both — a beautiful website that nobody can find is pointless, and ranking on Google with a site that looks unprofessional loses you the lead anyway. We do both.
Yes — visit our case studies page to see recent projects we have completed for businesses across the North West. Each case study includes the brief, the approach, the design, and the results.
Yes. We are based in Wigan and work with businesses across Leigh, Atherton, Tyldesley, Bolton, Horwich, Warrington, Manchester and the wider North West. Most of our clients are within 30 minutes of us, but we also work with businesses across the UK remotely.
If your Leigh business needs a website that works harder, or you want to start showing up in local search results, drop us a message. We will have a straightforward conversation about what you need, what it costs, and how quickly we can get it done.
