- Platform: WordPress
- Focus: Clear navigation, customer-friendly layout, mobile usability
- Designed for: Local visitors searching on mobile and looking for quick answers
Summary
- Goal: Make it easier for customers to find key information and get in touch
- Work: WordPress design, mobile-first layout, improved structure and calls to action
- Outcome: A clearer, more modern website that supports local visibility and enquiries
Challenge
Garden centres and plant nurseries often have a lot of information customers want quickly — opening hours, location, seasonal highlights, product ranges and contact details.
The challenge was to create a website that:
- Works smoothly on mobile (where most customers browse)
- Makes key information easy to find without scrolling endlessly
- Supports local searches and “near me” discovery
- Encourages visitors to call, visit or message
Solution
1) Customer-friendly navigation
The website was structured so customers can quickly find what they need — whether that’s opening times, location, seasonal information or product categories.
2) Mobile-first layout and readability
The layout uses clear spacing, readable text and thumb-friendly buttons so customers can browse easily on phones — especially when they’re out and about.
3) Clear calls to action
Contact routes were made obvious across the site so customers can call, message or visit with confidence. For local retail, the “next step” needs to be simple and visible.
4) Local SEO foundations
The content and structure were aligned to support local search performance, including clear page focus, tidy on-page SEO, internal links and image optimisation.
If you already have a website but it feels busy or outdated, explore website redesign options. If you want your site kept secure and updated, see WordPress maintenance plans.
Results
- Easier to use: clearer navigation and improved mobile experience
- Stronger local visibility: better foundations for local search and discovery
- More customer actions: clearer calls to contact, visit or enquire
- More professional look: stronger trust from first impression
