— The local picture

Websites for a market town on the edge of Dartmoor

Tavistock's market charter dates from 1105, and the Pannier Market still opens Tuesday to Saturday, with antiques on Tuesdays, crafts midweek and local produce at the Friday charter market. The town, 12,675 people at the 2021 census, sits on the edge of Dartmoor, so its customers come from two directions: people who shop here every week, and people passing through.

Trade arrives in bursts and in a steady trickle. The Goose Fair each October and the fortnightly farmers' market bring crowds on fixed days, while Whitchurch, Lamerton, Mary Tavy, Peter Tavy and Horrabridge keep things ticking over the rest of the year. People there search as though Tavistock is their town, because it is, so a good site looks after the regular first.

What I'd build for a Tavistock business

For a stallholder or independent shop, I'd show which market days you trade and where to find you, with photos that match what someone sees when they walk in. For a café or guest house, seasonal hours and a booking link go near the top. For a trade, each village gets named, and Plymouth, roughly fifteen miles down the A386, if you work there too.

— Common questions

Asked by Tavistock businesses

I sell at the Pannier Market. Do I need a website as well as a stall?

A stall only sells on the days you're behind it. A simple site lets someone who bought from you on a Friday find you again and order in between. You pay nothing for the design, and the home page comes to you on a private link first.

Can a Devon business use a web designer based in Cornwall?

Of course. I'm in Saltash, just across the Tamar, and happy to meet in Tavistock. What matters more is that your site speaks to people searching from Tavistock and its villages, and that has nothing to do with which side of the river the designer lives on.

How do I get found by visitors as well as locals?

Largely through your Google Business Profile, which visitors see first on a phone. Accurate hours and good photos there often matter as much as the site itself. Managing that profile is part of the Growth and Dominate plans, £99 and £199 a month plus VAT.
