Local Business Website Creation in Blandford Forum and Gillingham
Blandford Forum was almost entirely destroyed by fire in 1731 and rebuilt in one go, making it one of the most complete surviving Georgian county towns in England, while nearby Gillingham was the site of a medieval royal hunting lodge visited by four English kings.
Gillingham Chamber of Commerce & Industry has supported local businesses since the 1930s, today representing a mix of high street shops, industrial estate firms and home-based digital businesses across the area. ONS recorded 18,000 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
4.3% of businesses in Dorset were classed as high-growth in 2024 (ONS). In a market changing that fast, website creation is what keeps a business visible instead of lost in the churn.
