Your website hides key services
Customers cannot find your MOT testing, diagnostics, tyre or air conditioning information quickly. They leave before calling, especially when a nearby garage explains its services more clearly.

People searching for an MOT, service or repair usually check several garages before calling. They look at your services, location, reviews, opening times and whether you appear trustworthy. If your website is old, slow or missing, another garage can win the job before you get a chance to speak.
A basic website is not enough for a busy workshop. Your site needs to explain what you do, show your qualifications and make it easy to request an MOT, ask about a fault or price a repair. It also needs to support your Google Business Profile and help you follow up.
The problem
Customers cannot find your MOT testing, diagnostics, tyre or air conditioning information quickly. They leave before calling, especially when a nearby garage explains its services more clearly.
The phone rings while you are inspecting a vehicle, serving someone at the desk or closing up. Without call capture, you may never know a customer wanted to book.
Vague messages leave out registration numbers, symptoms and preferred dates. You waste time asking basic questions instead of pricing suitable work and filling the diary.
What you get
Every client also takes Website Care at £59 a month. Everything else is modular.
The cost of a ringing phone

The result
Customers explain the vehicle, fault and service they need before you respond. You spend less time gathering basics and more time quoting work your workshop can handle.
Clear pages explain MOTs, servicing, diagnostics, tyres and repairs in plain English. Visitors see what you do, where you work and why they should contact you.
The AI receptionist answers in your business name, gathers job details and texts you immediately. You can follow up after the job in hand instead of losing the opportunity.
01
You are changing tyres, inspecting brakes and dealing with customers at the counter. You cannot answer every call or explain every service from scratch. Your garage website works through those jobs for you, showing customers what you offer, where you are and what they should do next.
We build the website around profitable, real-world services. That can include MOT testing, servicing, diagnostics, brakes and suspension, air conditioning, tyres and alignment, bodywork and courtesy cars. Each service gets clear information, useful reassurance and a direct route to contact you.
The site becomes the centre of your marketing. Your Google Business Profile, adverts, reviews and social posts all send people back to a page that is ready to turn interest into an enquiry. You do not need one supplier for design and another to chase everything afterwards.
Your website can also answer questions before the phone rings. Customers can see your opening hours, service area, payment options, qualifications and what information to provide. That means fewer vague messages and better-prepared conversations when they contact the workshop.
02
Most garage searches include a place or service. People type phrases such as "MOT centre near me", "car diagnostics Newcastle" or "brake repairs Gateshead". We make your website and Google Business Profile clearly match those searches, so nearby drivers can understand your services and location.
Your Google Business Profile is the listing that appears in Google Maps and local results. We help keep its services, opening times, phone number, photos and updates accurate. We also connect it properly to your website, giving Google and customers consistent information about your garage.
Our garage SEO work focuses on useful local pages, not empty blocks of repeated town names. We can build pages around MOT testing, servicing and diagnostics in the areas you cover. From Newcastle, that may include Gateshead, Sunderland, Durham, North Shields and South Shields.
We also cover Whitley Bay, Wallsend, Jarrow, Washington, Cramlington and Blyth where they fit your actual customer base. Good local search work gives people a reason to choose you after they find you, rather than simply making your name appear.
More detail
The rest of what garages & mot centres ask us, tidied away. Open what you need.
A contact box saying "send us a message" does not give you enough to price work. We build forms around the information your workshop needs. A customer can select the service, describe the issue and provide the vehicle details that help you respond properly.
For an MOT or service enquiry, the form can ask for registration, make, model, preferred date and mileage. For diagnostics, it can ask about warning lights, symptoms and when the fault began. For tyres, it can request tyre size or registration and whether fitting is needed.
The form can also request photographs for bodywork or damage estimates. You receive the details in a clear message, rather than spending time asking the same basic questions. That helps you decide which jobs fit your workshop and which need a call first.
We can add booking links, call buttons and separate forms for different services. Customers get a simple next step. You get an enquiry that is easier to assess, price and turn into a real appointment.
Drivers are handing over an important and expensive possession. They want signs that your garage is honest, qualified and careful. Reviews often decide which garage gets the call, especially when several businesses offer the same MOT, service or repair.
We help you ask for a review after each completed job. The request can be sent at the right point, when the customer has collected the vehicle and knows how the work went. It gives happy customers a quick path to share their experience on Google.
Your website can show suitable reviews beside the services they support. A comment about clear diagnostics helps a diagnostics visitor. A review about fair MOT advice helps someone comparing test centres. We can also display accreditations such as DVSA Approved Test Centre, Good Garage Scheme, IMI qualifications or Trust My Garage membership.
Proof should be specific, not just a row of five-star symbols. We show the details that reduce doubt, including the type of work, the way you communicate and the care customers receive. That gives a new visitor more confidence before they call.
A missed call can be a lost MOT booking, a brake enquiry or a customer ready to approve a repair. Our AI Receptionist answers 24/7 in your business name, including when you are under a bonnet, serving a customer or closed for the evening.
It takes the caller's details, records what they need and sorts urgency. A caller with a dangerous brake fault can be flagged differently from someone asking about a routine service. It then texts you the information immediately, so you can decide what to do next.
The AI receptionist costs £169 a month on its own. It is £199 a month when bundled with Website Care. It does not pretend to diagnose a vehicle or make promises your workshop cannot keep. It gathers useful information and helps you respond quickly.
You remain in control of the job and the customer relationship. The receptionist gives callers a helpful first response, captures the details you would otherwise miss and gives you a clear summary by text. That is particularly useful during peak MOT periods and after work hours.
Google Ads puts your garage in front of people searching for a service now. That might be an MOT booking, air conditioning repair, a new set of tyres or urgent brake work. We only recommend it when your website and follow-up process are ready.
Google Ads Management is £449 a month. This includes campaign management, bid and budget changes, advert testing, removing unhelpful search terms, landing page improvements and a monthly reporting call. Your advertising spend is paid directly to Google and is never marked up by us.
We use separate landing pages and tracked contact routes where useful. That lets us see whether a click produced a phone call, form enquiry or booking request. You can then judge campaigns by the work they create, rather than by the number of people who merely saw an advert.
Ad spend is separate from our management fee, and you choose the budget with our guidance. We explain what each campaign targets and what the reports mean. If a service or area does not produce suitable enquiries, we can adjust the work instead of hiding behind technical terms.
A new website can launch strongly, then become outdated if nobody maintains it. Our SEO and Content service costs £249 a month. It includes two useful pages or articles each month, local search work, Google Business Profile posts, local listing work, ranking checks and monthly reporting.
Content can answer the questions customers ask your team every week. We can explain when an MOT is due, what a dashboard warning light may mean, why tyres wear unevenly or what an air conditioning service includes. Clear advice builds trust without pretending to diagnose a car online.
We can also create pages for seasonal demand. Air conditioning becomes more relevant before summer. Batteries, tyres and visibility matter more during colder months. The plan follows your services, capacity and local demand, rather than publishing random articles that bring no useful customer.
Automated Social Media is an optional £99 a month. It plans, writes and posts to Facebook and Instagram, then lets you approve a month of content in one sitting. The Intelligent Marketing Coach costs £49 a month and gives you weekly marketing tasks built around your garage.
Essentials costs £1,295 and gives you a credible presence that turns visitors into enquiries. It suits a garage that needs a proper service-led website, clear contact routes and a stronger first impression. Complete costs £1,995 and is for businesses losing work because calls are missed.
Growth costs £2,495 and suits a garage ready to buy leads through Google. It gives us a stronger base for paid campaigns, tracked enquiries and landing pages. Every package is built around your workshop, services, customer areas and the jobs you want more often.
Website Care is required for every client at £59 a month. It includes hosting, security certificate, daily backups, security monitoring, software updates, uptime monitoring, up to 30 minutes of content changes each month and email support. Your site needs this care to remain safe, available and current.
If you want to start without the upfront build payment, the no upfront option is £199 a month on a 24 month term. There is no setup fee. It includes a template site built for your trade, hosting, care and the AI receptionist. All prices exclude VAT.
The honest comparison
It is a fair question, and it deserves a straight answer rather than a sales pitch.
If you simply need a basic online presence, a low-cost website builder may be enough. Somewhere to point people who already know your name. If that is genuinely all you need, do that and spend the money elsewhere. We would rather tell you that than take a fee for something you will not use.
Our websites are designed for established businesses that want Google traffic to turn into calls, enquiries and customers. Copy, tracking, conversion setup and ongoing management are built in. That is a different product solving a different problem, and it is priced accordingly.
A £199 builder site
Fine for a basic presence. Not built to win work.
A Look North website
Built so search traffic becomes booked jobs.
Who writes the words
A £199 builder site
You do, usually at 11pm, into a blank box.
A Look North website
We do. Copywriting for every page is included, written around the jobs you actually want.
Whether it shows up on Google
A £199 builder site
It will rank for your business name. Not much else.
A Look North website
A page for every service and every town you cover, structured so each one can rank.
What happens to an enquiry
A £199 builder site
A contact form emails you. If you miss it, you miss it.
A Look North website
Quote forms written for your trade, instant SMS and email alerts, and every enquiry stored so none are lost.
When the phone rings and you are on a job
A £199 builder site
It goes to voicemail. Most callers hang up and ring the next business.
A Look North website
Our AI receptionist answers 24/7 in your business name, takes the details and texts you straight away.
Knowing what is working
A £199 builder site
A visitor counter, if that.
A Look North website
Call tracking, conversion tracking and call attribution, so you know which clicks became real jobs.
Getting reviews
A £199 builder site
You remember to ask, sometimes.
A Look North website
Review generation set up so a request goes out after every job, with the results shown on your site.
What happens after launch
A £199 builder site
Nothing. It sits there until you cancel the subscription.
A Look North website
The Marketing Coach gives you a plan broken into weekly jobs, so the site keeps earning its keep.
Who owns it
A £199 builder site
The platform. Stop paying and it disappears.
A Look North website
You do. The code, the domain, the hosting account and the content are yours.
Speed on a phone
A £199 builder site
Template bloat, often slow, which costs you rankings and visitors.
A Look North website
Built mobile first, because that is where almost every local search happens.
When something breaks
A £199 builder site
A help centre article and a support queue.
A Look North website
Website Care at £59 a month: monitoring, backups, updates, and a person who answers.
If the upfront cost is the blocker rather than the quality, we do a no upfront option at £199 a month on a 24 month term. That is not a builder subscription. It is a real site built for your trade, with hosting, Website Care and the AI receptionist included, live in 5 working days. The difference between that and a £199 builder site is the difference between renting a van and renting a parking space.
What the difference buys
Not features. The things that change how much work comes in.
A missed call is a customer ringing your competitor. The AI receptionist picks up 24/7, qualifies the job and texts you. Most trades win back more than the cost of the whole website in the first few months.
One page cannot rank for eight services across twelve towns. We build a page for each, so you show up for the specific job someone is searching for right now.
Not "how much for a bathroom?" but property type, scale, access, timing and photos. You quote accurately, first, without a site visit.
A review request after every job. In a year you have the review count competitors cannot catch up with, and reviews are the last thing a customer checks before calling.
Copywriting for every page is included. No blank boxes, no writing your own service descriptions at 11pm, no page that sounds like everyone else.
Call tracking and conversion tracking show which clicks turned into jobs. You stop guessing which half of the marketing worked.
The Marketing Coach turns a strategy into weekly jobs small enough to actually finish. That is why our sites are still growing a year later.
Code, domain, hosting, content and your Google Business Profile. Nothing switches off if you leave, because nothing was rented to you.
If a basic presence is all you need, a builder is the sensible choice and we will say so. If you want the phone to ring more often, that is what we build. Get a fixed price.
