Newcastle & Tyneside

Loyal customers, tight-knit neighbourhoods, and a search before every call.

Newcastle runs on relationships. People stay with the same hairdresser in Gosforth for years, recommend the same electrician across Heaton and Byker, and drink in the same pub in Ouseburn. That loyalty is a strength, but it starts somewhere, and increasingly it starts with a search on a phone and a quick look at a website. The businesses that win new customers here are the ones whose sites confirm, in a few seconds, that they are real, local and easy to deal with.

The city and its neighbours are distinct places with their own names in a search: Jesmond, Gosforth and Kenton to the north, Heaton, Walker and Byker to the east, Fenham and Newburn to the west, Gateshead across the river, and the coast at North Shields, Tynemouth and Whitley Bay. We build the site around the areas you genuinely cover, written the way people here say them, so a locksmith who works Jesmond and Sandyford does not end up fielding calls from Cramlington.

Tyneside's housing keeps property people busy: Tyneside flats and terraces from Heaton to Benwell, the larger houses of Gosforth and Jesmond, newer estates in Great Park and Newcastle Great Park. A property maintenance firm, a decorator or a locksmith with a site that shows the work, names the areas and puts the phone number where a thumb can reach it will be chosen over one that does not. That is what we build, with no design bill at the start.

Two ways to start in Newcastle.

A professional website, or that website with ongoing SEO from the start. The same standard of work whichever you need.

The price is the same in Newcastle as everywhere else in the UK. Not sure which fits? Talk to someone first or see the full pricing details.

Tyneside is searching for the work you do. We work on the searches that fit your business.

Locked out of a flat in Jesmond, a leaking gutter in Gosforth, a family photographer for a christening in Tynemouth: each starts with a search on a phone. SEO is ongoing monthly work on three agreed searches like these, so more of those customers have the chance to find you.

  1. 01
    “locksmith Jesmond

    An urgent search from a doorstep, decided in seconds. The business that looks local, reachable and reputable gets the call; everything else on the page is secondary.

  2. 02
    “property maintenance Newcastle

    Landlords and letting agents with a list of jobs. They want to see the range of work, the areas covered and a sense that you turn up when booked.

  3. 03
    “photographer Tynemouth

    Chosen on the portfolio and the feel of the site. Galleries have to load fast on a phone and lead to a simple date check.

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

Newcastle industries

Built around the trade first, then around Tyneside.

A locksmith in Heaton and a beauty salon in Gosforth are found and chosen in different ways. Each site starts from how its customers decide, then adds the areas it serves.

How it works

Your part is short.

Choose a plan, tell us about the business, review the draft. We do everything in between, and nothing is published until you approve it.

See the full process, start to finish

  1. 1

    Choose your plan

    Pick Website or Website + SEO. Your first monthly payment is taken at signup.

  2. 2

    Tell us about the business

    A short onboarding in your Client Platform: services, areas, anything you want highlighted, your logo, any photos and the number you want calls to go to.

  3. 3

    Ready to Build

    We check we have what we need. If something's missing we'll say exactly what, and work with what you have where we can.

  4. 4

    First draft

    You see a working draft of your site, on desktop and phone, and tell us what to change.

  5. 5

    Approve and launch

    Reasonable in-scope revisions, then you approve it. Nothing goes live until you say so.

Timing, stated properly

We aim to have your first website draft ready within 5 working days once PrimeStart has everything needed and confirms your project is Ready to Build. Payment alone doesn’t start the clock; missing details, revisions or domain delays can extend it.

Before you approve

You review the draft and request reasonable in-scope changes. If there’s a genuine problem we can’t put right within scope after reasonable attempts, we can cancel the agreement and refund Website subscription payments made, subject to any disclosed non-recoverable third-party costs.

Questions from Newcastle businesses

Do you cover Gateshead, the coast and the rest of the North East?
Yes. PrimeStart works with businesses across Newcastle and the whole of Tyneside, including Gateshead, Wallsend, North Shields, Tynemouth and Whitley Bay, as well as Sunderland, Durham, Cramlington and the rest of the UK. The website is built and managed remotely, so there is no local office and nothing to visit.
What does a website cost for a Newcastle business?
£49.99 a month for Website, with a £0 upfront website design fee. Your first monthly payment is taken at signup and the Website has an 18-month minimum term, £899.82 in total. Complete that term and the website is yours. The price is the same in Newcastle as it is everywhere else.
I run a pub or a salon. Does the plan work for that kind of business?
Yes. Website suits most local businesses, not only trades. For a pub, bar or salon the site leads with photographs, opening hours, what is on and the easiest possible way to book or get in touch. We build it around how your customers choose, then host it and keep it working, with small updates such as new opening hours handled under fair use.
Can the site show the areas I cover in the way locals describe them?
Yes, and it should. Customers search for Jesmond, Gosforth, Heaton or Whitley Bay far more often than they search for a postcode, so the site names the areas you genuinely work in, in those words. A site that matches what people type is easier to find and more convincing when they land on it.
How does SEO work for a business in Newcastle?
Website + SEO is £349.99 a month total, with the website included rather than added on top. Each month we work on three agreed local searches, for example "locksmith jesmond", alongside your Google Business Profile and the site itself, and report on what was done. It is designed to create more opportunities for the right customers to find you. Nobody can promise rankings, and we don't.
What happens after the 18-month term?
The website is yours. Stay with PrimeStart at £49.99 a month on a rolling basis with no new minimum term, or move the website to hosting of your own. Transfer is subject to the third-party licences any website relies on, such as WordPress, plugins, fonts and stock photography.
