Free Site Review & Local SEO Check-up for Small Businesses in the Five Valleys

I’m Justin, a freelance web designer and SEO consultant based in King’s Stanley. This free site review and local SEO check-up is for micro and small businesses across the Stroud District who want more from their website and Google presence but aren’t sure where to start. No jargon, no hard sell; just honest feedback and a prioritised list of next steps. During the review process I’ll typically look at:

Your website basics: Clarity of message, calls-to-action, navigation and how easy it is to contact you.

Local SEO signals: Your Google Business Profile, local citations, reviews and how consistently your details appear.

Search visibility: Are you showing up for the terms your buyers actually use in Stroud and the surrounding villages?

Speed & performance: Whether slow loading or technical issues could be costing you enquiries, especially on mobile.

Conversion opportunities: Quick changes that make it easier for visitors to call, email or request a quote.

I’ll review your website, Google Business Profile and local visibility, then note down 2–3 priority improvements plus some medium-term ideas.

Answering Your FAQs

Do I have to be based in Stroud?

You don’t have to be in Stroud town itself, but you do need to be based in the Stroud District. I prioritise businesses in Stroud, Stonehouse, King’s & Leonard Stanley, Painswick and nearby villages.

Is there any obligation to work with you afterwards?

You don’t have to work with me afterwards. The clinic is designed to give you clarity first. If you’d like help implementing the plan, we can talk about that separately.

What if I don’t have a website yet?

That’s fine. We can use the free review to decide whether you need a simple starter site, something more substantial, or a different approach entirely.

Is your advice guaranteed to get me results?

My suggestions in this free review are based on my professional experience and what I consider to be best practices. This is a general overview, not a detailed technical audit. The responsibility for implementing any changes (and the results of those changes) ultimately rests with you.

Are there any businesses you don’t review?

This free offer aims to support the local micro and small businesses I care about. To be fair with my time, I reserve the right to politely decline any review. In particular I will likely not review a large corporation, a competitor, or a business outside the Stroud District. I’ll be sure to let you know if I feel I’m not the right fit.

Why is this review free?

That’s a fair question. There are two parts to the answer: First: I really want to support other local businesses in the Stroud District. Second: It’s a great way for me to show what I know. Lots of businesses have faced issues with poor SEO. This review gives you genuine value right away. If you find it helpful and want more support, that’s great! If not, you’ll still get a free, useful plan.
