Dalston

Kingsland High Street, Gillett Square and two stations that share one name.

Kingsland High Street is where Dalston actually trades: boutiques, bars and cafes beside the Rio Cinema, and into Gillett Square, a purpose-built town square with ten market kiosks and the Dalston Culture House. Dalston also carries a documented nightlife history, historically a hub for 1970s and 1980s pub rock, with four or five cinemas once open within a third of a mile of each other.

What sets Dalston apart from every other name on this stretch of Hackney is that it has two separate stations carrying it. Dalston Junction opened in 1865, closed in 1986, and reopened in 2010; Dalston Kingsland has stood on the North London Line since 1983. They are a quarter of a mile apart on the same road, which means a directions request that only says 'Dalston' gives a customer a coin-flip on which end of Kingsland High Street they will actually arrive at.

That is a specific, fixable problem for a website rather than a vague one: state the actual number or stretch of Kingsland High Street you trade from, name the nearer of the two stations by its full name rather than just 'Dalston', and give the walking distance between them if both are realistic starting points. None of that comes free from having a Dalston address; it has to be written in.

If you trade on Kingsland High Street itself, the site says so specifically. If you're closer to Gillett Square or one of the two stations, it says that instead.

The search on Kingsland High Street names a station, not always a shop.

"Cafe dalston", "bar kingsland high street", "hairdresser near dalston junction": people here search around two stations and one long street. Ongoing SEO is monthly work on three agreed searches like these.

  1. 01
    “cafe Dalston

    Typed by someone stepping off either Dalston Junction or Dalston Kingsland who does not yet know which end of the High Street they need to walk.

  2. 02
    “bar Kingsland High Street

    Searched by someone already walking Kingsland High Street who wants to see what is actually open, rather than trusting a map pin that could sit at either station's end.

  3. 03
    “hairdresser near Dalston Junction

    Booked around Dalston Kingsland station specifically, because the customer is planning the walk up Kingsland High Street from it rather than heading for the postcode.

Examples only. The three searches are agreed with you around the work you want more of and what people here actually type. Nobody can promise a position, and we don't.

Two ways to start on Kingsland High Street.

Questions from Dalston businesses

Do you work with businesses on Kingsland High Street and around Gillett Square?
Yes - Kingsland High Street, Gillett Square, the Dalston Curve Garden and the streets around the CLR James Library. Everything is designed, built and managed remotely, so there is no office to visit.
Dalston has two stations. Does that actually matter for a website?
It matters more than most site copy accounts for. Dalston Junction and Dalston Kingsland are a quarter of a mile apart on the same road, so a page that only says 'near Dalston station' leaves a customer guessing. We name the actual station and, where it helps, the walk between the two.
We already have a website we like. Can you just do the SEO?
No. SEO is not sold on its own any more — it is only available as part of Website + SEO, £349.99 a month in total, and that means building you a new PrimeStart website rather than adding search work onto the one you have now. A business near Kingsland High Street would be starting from the same place as everyone else here: a new site built around the trade, with the SEO work running from day one rather than retrofitted onto what already exists. Nobody can promise rankings, and we don't.
What does a Dalston business website cost?
Website is £49.99 a month with a £0 upfront design fee, and it costs the same on Kingsland High Street as anywhere else. The first £49.99 is taken at signup, and there is an 18-month minimum term, £899.82 in total. Once that term is complete, the website is yours.
How does ongoing SEO work?
Website + SEO is £349.99 a month total, with the website included rather than charged on top. Each month we work on three agreed local searches, for example "cafe dalston" or "bar kingsland high street", alongside your Google Business Profile and the website itself. Nobody can promise rankings, and we don't.
Is this the same as the Kingsland page?
No. This page is for the trading high street - Kingsland High Street's shops, bars and cafes, Gillett Square and Dalston's two stations. The Kingsland page is written for businesses on Kingsland Road and in the Kingsland Shopping Centre, a different stretch of ground with a different problem.
Is there a PrimeStart office in Dalston?
No. We have no premises in Dalston or anywhere in Hackney. Design, build, hosting and support are all handled remotely.
