Elevate Your Business’s Online Presence with Northern

Starting with a strong online foundation is absolutely crucial for any business these days. At Northern, we’re all about giving businesses in Newcastle, Sunderland, Durham, and the broader North East the edge they need to truly succeed online. Whether you’re running a bustling restaurant, a pioneering tech startup, or a dynamic local business, we’ve got the right mix of skills to boost your digital presence, turn more visitors into loyal customers, and ultimately, drive measurable growth.

Building a Robust Website

A direct and engaging website is your business’s 24/7 storefront, and we specialise in crafting sleek, conversion-focused designs that not only look fantastic but are also easy to navigate, ensuring a seamless user experience. For instance, our recent web design revamp for a local restaurant led to a 32% increase in direct bookings. By integrating platforms like SevenRooms and Design My Night, we optimised their booking process and made it simpler for customers to secure a table, thus enhancing their bottom line.

Standing Out with Branding

But how does one stand out in a sea of competitors? This is where our branding magic comes into play. We understand that a cohesive visual identity can communicate your unique value in an instant. By refreshing the branding for a Newcastle-based tech startup, we helped them secure crucial funding, thanks to a professional image that resonated with potential investors.

Maximising Digital Marketing Impact

Digital marketing is like the lifeline that keeps your business connected and visible to the right audience. At Northern, we tailor campaign strategies that make every marketing penny count. For example, we took a hospitality client’s Google Ads campaign and boosted their bookings by over 32% in just a month. Our data-driven approach ensures you’re not only reaching more people but engaging them effectively.

The Power of Visuals

What about the power of visuals? Imagine scrolling through social media and stumbling upon stunning photos or captivating videos that represent your business. Our photography and videography services do just that—they engage, inform, and pull people in. Like how our photoshoot for a Sunderland restaurant increased their social media engagement by 85%, transforming followers into regular diners.

Optimising Conversions

Now, let’s talk about conversions. Conversion Rate Optimisation (CRO) is vital to turning lookers into bookers. By pinpointing and fixing areas of friction where potential customers drop off, we overhaul the user experience online. A perfect case in point is our work for a Durham restaurant. By fixing their booking integrations and refining site imagery, we shot their online reservations up by an impressive 88%.

Improving Online Visibility

Visibility is king, and through smart SEO and PPC practices, we help businesses be easily found online. Whether it’s optimising your website for Google searches or running targeted paid campaigns, our efforts have led to substantial traffic increases, such as a remarkable 145% uplift in organic traffic for a Newcastle hospitality client, translating directly to more sales and reduced bounce rates.
