Wigan has a strong pub culture — and the pubs thriving online are those that have made it easy for customers to find out what is on, book a table, and hire a function room without having to call. A properly built pub website with an events calendar, food menu, and function room hire section converts local searches into visits and bookings that a Facebook page alone will never generate.
Mako Digital builds bespoke WordPress websites for pubs and bars in Wigan — events calendars, food and drinks menus, function room hire pages, sports fixtures sections, real ale and craft beer showcases, and local SEO that puts your pub in front of Wigan residents searching for somewhere to eat, drink, or celebrate.
The digital landscape for pubs and bars in Wigan is full of opportunity — and most of it is going untapped.
Pub events — quiz nights, live music, themed evenings — generate far more interest and advance bookings when they are listed on a properly structured events page than when posted on Facebook alone.
Private function hire is one of the highest-value bookings a pub can generate. Without a dedicated function room page that ranks for party venue Wigan and function room hire Wigan, those bookings go to venues that have made it easier to find and enquire.
A pub that serves food needs its food menu to look as good as a restaurant's. A poorly presented food section loses dining customers to restaurants that showcase their menu better.
Built into every site as standard — not extras charged separately.
Live events calendar for quiz nights, live music, themed evenings, and sports screenings. Customers can see what is on and book or register interest directly.
Dedicated private hire section with capacity, layout options, catering packages, and an enquiry form. Captures birthday parties, wakes, work dos, and any other private events.
Full food and drinks menu including real ales, craft beers, wine, and cocktails if applicable. Presented as well as any restaurant menu — because the food offer deserves the same presentation.
Upcoming sports fixtures page showing what major matches are being screened. Drives footfall for sports fans planning their viewing.
We build pub websites around the events programme and function hire offer — the two highest-value content areas for converting online searches into visits and bookings.
A five-page pub website from £500. Sites with full events calendar and booking integration priced on scope. Fixed before work starts.
Party venue Wigan, function room hire Wigan, and wake venue Wigan are consistently searched. A dedicated function hire page targeting these terms captures high-value private bookings year-round.
Based in Wigan. Direct contact, real people. Your project is handled by the same team from brief to launch.
The majority of pubs and bars in Wigan are either invisible online or operating with a website that is actively letting them down. A slow, template-built site that does not rank does not sit quietly in the background — it loses you work to competitors before the conversation has even started.
Pub searches in Wigan range from broad terms like pub Wigan and bar near me to specific intent searches like pub with live music Wigan, sports bar Wigan, quiz night Wigan, and Sunday roast Wigan. Function-related searches — party venue Wigan, function room hire near me, and wake venue Wigan — are also consistently searched and represent the highest-value bookings any pub can win through its website. A well-structured site captures all of these.
Sunday lunch Wigan and Sunday roast near me are among the most consistently searched food-related terms in Wigan, generating high-intent bookings from families, couples, and groups planning a weekly tradition. A dedicated Sunday lunch page — with the menu, pricing, booking instructions, and a strong gallery of the roast — consistently outperforms a general food menu page for these searches and converts those visits into weekly regulars. Most Wigan pub websites do not have a dedicated Sunday lunch page. It is one of the simplest and highest-return content additions available.
