Blantyre trades: your next customer’s at the skate park.
Toflin builds websites, runs Facebook and Instagram pages and sets up Google reviews for trades and small businesses in Blantyre, High Blantyre, Coatshill and Auchinraith.
Livingstone’s town
Blantyre’s where David Livingstone was born, and the David Livingstone Centre down by the Clyde is worth a walk round if you’ve not been in years. The town’s proud of it, and fair enough.
On a dry day, the skate park at Stonefield is full of kids on scooters and BMXs, with their mums and dads leaning on the fence scrolling their phones. That’s your customer, right there. They’re on Facebook. The question is whether your work is in front of them.
Blantyre’s a big town with a lot of older houses being done up: windows, kitchens, roughcasting, driveways. The work is there. What decides who gets it is who they find first.
Don’t lose Blantyre jobs to East Kilbride
Blantyre sits between Hamilton, East Kilbride and Glasgow, so firms from all three come up when someone searches here. If you’re based in Blantyre, that’s your edge. Say Blantyre on your website, get reviews from Blantyre customers, and post Blantyre jobs.
Local Facebook groups are busy here too. A page that posts regularly with real jobs gets tagged a lot more than one that doesn’t.

Questions from Blantyre businesses
What should I post on Facebook?
Your jobs. Before and after photos, a short line about what you did and where. Nothing fancy. I do it for you from the photos you send.
Can you help me get reviews?
Yes. I set up a simple way to ask every customer, at the right time, with a link that takes them straight to your Google review box.
How long does a website take?
Usually a couple of weeks once I’ve got your photos and details. I’ll give you a date before we start.
Can you guarantee me the top of Google?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. What I can do is sort the things Google looks at for local searches: your profile, your reviews and your website.
Ready when you are.
