Website, Google visibility and digital presence reviews for independent businesses across Shropshire.
For a small fee we'll assess your website, Google visibility and digital presence — providing practical recommendations, prioritised improvements and clear next steps.
Before suggesting anything, we carry out what we call a Riverside Review — an honest, independent assessment of where your business actually stands online.
You'll receive a prioritised report showing exactly what we'd improve — and why. No fluff, no filler.

Everything about what the review covers and how it works
The Riverside Local Review is a four-page digital presence audit designed for local businesses. We manually assess your website, Google Business Profile, local search visibility and how you compare against competitors — then deliver a clear, prioritised report with practical recommendations.
It's designed for small and medium-sized businesses in Shropshire and the surrounding area who want an honest, expert view of their online presence — without paying for a lengthy agency engagement. If you've ever wondered why you're not showing up on Google or why your website isn't generating enquiries, this is for you.
Every review is manually prepared by us — there's no automated tool churning out a generic report. We spend time looking at your website, your Google presence and your local competitors before writing up our findings and recommendations by hand.
You'll receive a clear, four-page PDF report covering four areas: website and conversion, Google and local search visibility, competitor comparison, and prioritised recommendations. It's written in plain English — no jargon, no fluff.
We aim to deliver every Local Review within 3–5 working days of receiving your order. If you have a specific deadline in mind, get in touch before ordering and we'll let you know what's possible.
No preparation needed. Just place your order and we'll take it from there. The more context you can give us about your business and goals, the more tailored your recommendations will be — but even without that, we'll produce a thorough review.
What to expect when you work with Riverside
We're based in Shropshire. We work primarily with local businesses across Shropshire and the surrounding areas, though we're happy to work with businesses further afield where it's a good fit.
You're under no obligation to do anything further — the review is a standalone product. But if you'd like support putting the recommendations into action, we offer a free discovery call to talk through your results and explore whether ongoing support would be a good fit.
Yes. Implementing recommendations is exactly what we do beyond the review. Whether that's improving your website, optimising your Google Business Profile, or building a longer-term digital strategy — we can help with all of it.
Yes. For businesses that want continued support, we offer growth plans tailored to your situation and goals. These typically follow a discovery call where we understand what you're working with and what you're trying to achieve.
You can reach us through the contact page on this website. Whether you have a question before ordering, want to discuss your results, or just want a conversation about your digital presence — we're always happy to talk.
Costs, payment and what happens when you order
The Riverside Local Review is £95, fixed. There are no hidden costs, no upsells baked into the report, and no obligation to use us for anything further afterwards. If you go ahead with any work within 60 days, the full £95 is deducted from your first invoice.
Payment is taken securely at the point of ordering. We accept all major credit and debit cards. Work begins once payment is confirmed.
We're confident in the quality of every review we produce, but if you feel yours hasn't hit the mark, get in touch and we'll make it right. We'd rather have an honest conversation than leave you disappointed.
Ongoing support is scoped and priced based on what you actually need — we don't have one-size-fits-all retainers. After a discovery call we'll put together a proposal that reflects your goals and budget.
Common questions about Google, websites and online visibility
There are usually a few common reasons: an incomplete or unoptimised Google Business Profile, a website that search engines struggle to read, low local authority, or strong competition in your area. The Local Review looks at all of these and explains what's likely holding you back.
Looking good and converting visitors are two different things. Common issues include unclear calls to action, a lack of trust signals, a poor mobile experience, or simply not enough visitors in the first place. We assess all of this as part of the review. You can also read our free article Why Your Website Isn't Getting Enquiries for a detailed breakdown.
A Google Business Profile is the listing that appears when someone searches for your business or a service in your area — showing your location, opening hours, reviews and contact details. If you serve local customers, it's one of the most valuable free tools available, and most businesses aren't using it to its full potential.
Very. Reviews influence both how prominently you appear in local search results and whether potential customers choose you over a competitor. The volume, recency and quality of your reviews all matter. Read our free article Online Reviews: How to Get More Without Being Annoying About It for practical guidance.
Not at all. Many of the most impactful improvements — particularly around your Google Business Profile and website basics — cost little or nothing to implement. A clear picture of what to focus on is usually more valuable than a big budget spent in the wrong direction.
