A digital agency serving Dewsbury businesses
Dewsbury is a minster and market town in Kirklees, West Yorkshire, between Wakefield and Huddersfield. Its market dates back to the fourteenth century and still trades around the Victorian market hall, and the town grew as a centre of the Heavy Woollen District.
Our base is in Wakefield and we have no office in Dewsbury. If your business is here, we can run your web design, marketing or branding project remotely by phone and video call.
The Dewsbury business landscape
Dewsbury Minster, the Minster Church of All Saints, has thirteenth-century origins, and the Victorian town hall stands in front of the old market place. The town has a diverse population and a mix of retailers, food businesses, manufacturers and local services, and Kirklees College has a centre in the town. The Dewsbury Rams rugby league club plays at its stadium on Owl Lane, built on the site of the former Shaw Cross Colliery.
Many Dewsbury firms are family-run and rely on word of mouth, but customers will usually check a business online as well before they visit or call.
Getting around Dewsbury
Dewsbury station is on the main line between Leeds, Huddersfield and Manchester, with TransPennine Express services and Northern trains on the Calder Valley line. The A638 links the town with Wakefield, and both the M62 and M1 are within easy reach. Ossett, in the Wakefield district, is immediately to the east.
What this means for your business
Your website
Customers of a service business often want to understand what happens next before they pick up the phone. Pages that walk through your process step by step can turn a hesitant visitor into an enquiry.

If your marketing budget is modest, do a few things well. Start with your Google Business Profile, your website’s key service pages and a simple way to measure enquiries, before adding paid advertising.
How we approach digital marketingYour brand
If you are launching a new business, a clear name, logo and colour palette give you a foundation for your website, shopfront and social media. A starter identity can be extended as the business grows.
How we approach branding and graphic designPractical points
- Market traders and food businesses should keep trading days and pitch locations up to date online, as customers often check before travelling.
- Fast trains bring Huddersfield and Leeds within easy reach; if you want customers from those places, mention them on your website.
- If you visit customers at home, list the parts of town you cover, such as Thornhill, Ravensthorpe and Savile Town, so that local searches match what you offer.
