Porthmadog

Busy all year, and searched for on phones.

Porthmadog is busy most of the year: visitors off the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland railways, people heading to Portmeirion or Black Rock Sands, and locals doing their shopping on the High Street. Most of them decide where to eat, stay or who to call on their phone.

I'm based down the coast in Barmouth, so I'm happy to come up and see you. We can go through what you need over a coffee.

Who's searching in Porthmadog.

Porthmadog is the shopping town for a big stretch of Eifionydd and the coast. The High Street runs from the harbour up towards Tremadog, and it's still mostly independent shops, cafés and pubs rather than chains. People drive in from the villages for it, so a lot of your customers already know the town and just want to check something before they come.

The visitors are the other half. Harbour Station is where the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland railways meet, Portmeirion is a few minutes away at Minffordd, and the caravan parks at Black Rock Sands fill up every summer. Those people don't know which café is good or who hires out kayaks. They search, look at the first few results and go.

Then there's the trade work: builders, plumbers, electricians and holiday let cleaners covering everywhere from Criccieth to Blaenau. For them a website mostly needs to say what they do, which villages they cover and how to get hold of them, and to show up when someone types the job and the town.

Why most Porthmadog sites don’t bring work

What should a website actually do for you?

It's 2026. Customers expect you to have a website, and they judge you by it. Yet most small businesses see theirs as a cost that never pays back. When someone lands on your site, it has three jobs, in this order.

A visitor lands From Google, a recommendation or your van. You have seconds.

Say what you fixPeople rarely want to read about a service. They want to know what problem you solve for them, in the simplest terms.

Earn their trustBefore they get in touch, people look for reviews and examples of your work. That's the cost of entry.

Make the next step obviousClear calls to action for whatever matters to you: booking an appointment, a viewing or an enquiry.

New enquiry A call, a booking or a message, landing with you.

Get these three right and your website starts bringing in work.

Every site I build is planned around your business and its goal. Not a template with your logo on.

FAQ

Questions from Porthmadog businesses.

Something else on your mind? Ask me directly.

Most of my trade is summer visitors. Is a website still worth it in winter?

Yes, because winter is when people book. Holiday lets, campsites and activity businesses round Porthmadog take most of next summer's bookings between January and April, from people planning at home. A site that's quick to book from in February matters more than one that looks good in August.

Can you add a booking or table reservation system?

I link up the booking tools that already work well, like the one your holiday let or restaurant uses now, and make sure they fit the site. I don't build custom booking systems, because the existing ones are cheaper for you and better supported.

Should my site mention Portmeirion and the railways?

If your customers come because of them, yes. Google matches what people search with what your page says, so a café two minutes from Harbour Station should say so. I write it in naturally, not as a list of keywords.

Do you work with businesses in Porthmadog?

Yes. I'm based in Barmouth and work with businesses in Porthmadog, Tremadog, Borth-y-Gest and Penrhyndeudraeth. I'll come to you.

Can you take over my existing site?

Often, yes. Send me the link and I'll tell you honestly whether it's worth keeping or starting fresh.

Danny at Wild Origines is so good that part of me wants to keep him a secret, but he deserves every bit of this review.

We’ve worked closely together to bring my company template and redevelop my current website, as well as effectively another new company website, and he’s been fantastic throughout. He’s worked all hours, taken the time to explain everything clearly, and consistently gone above and beyond. We’ve built a great relationship, and he’s been an absolute dream to work with.

What really sets Danny apart is his ability to think outside the box and create beautiful features that work brilliantly. He understands our philosophy while bringing sound business judgement, alongside expertise in AI and systems. It’s the perfect blend, and everything you could want in a web developer and far more.

Saying I wouldn’t hesitate to use Danny again doesn’t quite cover it. As long as he’s building websites, I won’t be going anywhere else. We’re already looking at other projects together, which probably says it all. I'd also recommend him to everyone and anyone who needs his services.

The website that Danny at Wild Origins has created for my business is far superior to the one I'd had before.

I'm absolutely thrilled with the design and he has showed great patience. Taking the time to understanding my vision and paying attention to all the details I wanted. He's been absolutely brilliant, and honestly can't recommend him enough. The evening my new website went live, I gained two new clients instantly!

A big thank you to Danny for making the whole process so easy and straightforward. He was friendly, helpful, and great to work with from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble, and we’re really pleased with the end result. Would definitely recommend Danny to anyone looking for a new website!
