Why Hand On Web is the Right Marketing Partner for Macclesfield
There are two kinds of marketing supplier most Macclesfield businesses end up with. The freelancer who does “a bit of everything” but disappears for weeks at a time — or the big Manchester agency that bills four figures a month, hands you to a junior account manager, and locks you into a twelve-month contract before you've seen a single result. Neither is built around your return on investment.
We built Hand On Web to be the third option. We're a real, founder-led team with a real office at the Riverside Innovation Centre in Chester — about 45 minutes from Macclesfield. You work directly with three named humans, not a call centre. Pricing is fixed and transparent from £499/mo with Google Ads management included, so you always know what you're paying. And there's no lock-in — retainers run month to month, backed by a 30-day guarantee.
The thing that ties it together is proof. Every month you get a plain-English report that maps spend to results — rankings, traffic, cost-per-lead, enquiries and sales — so the marketing has to earn its keep. It's the accountability of a serious agency, without the agency price tag. Start with a free, no-obligation strategy call and we'll show you where your quickest wins are.
Marketing for Macclesfield trades, clinics and B2B firms
Different Macclesfield businesses need a different mix of channels, and we tailor the retainer to match. Local trades and home-services — builders, electricians, landscapers, installers — usually get the fastest return from Google Ads and local SEO: show up the moment someone in Macclesfield searches, with the phone number front and centre. Clinics and consumer practices — dental, aesthetics, physio, salons — tend to lean on local SEO plus social media, where Google Business Profile reviews and a steady Instagram feed do the heavy lifting.
The B2B firms around the town and the Hurdsfield and Lyme Green business areas — engineering, professional services, software — get more from content marketing and SEO that builds authority and feeds longer sales cycles, often paired with a targeted Google Ads account for the high-intent searches. Whatever the mix, we start from your goals and your margins, not a one-size template, and we only recommend the channels we genuinely think will return.
Areas around Macclesfield we cover
We work with businesses across Macclesfield and the wider Cheshire East area. That includes the village businesses of Prestbury and Bollington, the commuter towns of Poynton and Wilmslow, and the premium independents of Alderley Edge. Wherever you're based, the process is the same: a free strategy call first, a clear plan with fixed pricing, and a monthly report that proves where your money went and what it brought back.

Macclesfield Digital Marketing FAQs
Common questions from Macclesfield business owners.
How much does digital marketing cost in Macclesfield?▾
Marketing retainers start at £499/mo and Google Ads management is included in the retainer — you don't pay a separate fee on top. The £499 plan suits a single channel done well (local SEO or a focused Google Ads account). Multi-channel retainers covering SEO, PPC, social and content typically run £750-£1,500/mo. Every quote is fixed and transparent — no hidden fees, no surprise invoices, and no minimum 12-month contract.
Do you manage Google Ads / PPC for Macclesfield businesses?▾
Yes. Google Ads and PPC management is included in our retainers, not charged as a separate percentage of spend on top. We build and run tightly themed campaigns, write the ad copy, set up conversion tracking properly, mine search terms for waste, and report on cost-per-lead every month. You keep full ownership of your ad account — if you ever leave, the campaigns stay with you.
Where are you based and do you cover Macclesfield?▾
Our office is at the Riverside Innovation Centre in Chester — about 45 minutes from Macclesfield. We cover Macclesfield and the surrounding Cheshire East towns: Prestbury, Bollington, Poynton, Wilmslow and Alderley Edge. Most of the work is done remotely with monthly review calls, and we're happy to meet face-to-face in Macclesfield or at our Chester office when a project needs it.
Why choose Hand On Web over a bigger Manchester agency?▾
You get the same channels — SEO, Google Ads, social, content — without the big-agency price tag or the account-handler layers. We're founder-led and you work directly with three named humans, not a rotating junior. Pricing is fixed and transparent, reporting is monthly and tied to ROI, and there's no lock-in. We'd rather earn your renewal every month than trap you in a contract.
Is there a contract or lock-in?▾
No long lock-in. Retainers run month to month after an initial short setup period, so you can scale up, scale down or stop with 30 days' notice. We also back the first month with a 30-day guarantee — if you're not happy with how we've started, you're not tied in.
How do you prove the marketing is actually working?▾
Every retainer includes a plain-English monthly report that ties spend to results: rankings and organic traffic for SEO, cost-per-lead and conversions for Google Ads, reach and engagement for social. We focus on the numbers that matter to your bottom line — enquiries, calls and sales — not vanity metrics. You'll always know exactly what you're paying for and what it returned.
What does the free strategy call involve?▾
It's a no-obligation 30-minute call where we look at your current marketing, your competitors in and around Macclesfield, and where the quickest wins are. You leave with a clear view of which channels are worth investing in — whether or not you decide to work with us. There's no pressure and no charge.
