Municipality in Overijssel
Almelo is a city where the shops mostly work for the surrounding area. Customers also come from Wierden and Borne and first search on their phone for an address, opening hours and whether you have something in stock. We make sure that is on your site, and that your email comes from your own domain.
What you need
Almelo has about two employee jobs for every three residents. That fits a place where people from Wierden and Borne come to work and to shop. For your site that means: put the address and route at the top, so someone from outside the city does not have to search.
In Almelo, 13 percent of working people work for themselves. That says little about what your business needs: an existing site that has to move and a first site for a new business are both welcome.
Switch deal
Taking a yearly package while you still have up to 9 months left on your old hosting contract? Then you get your yearly invoice straight away, with those months taken off the first year. We move your site and email for free.
For new customers on a yearly package, on the package itself. Send your invoice or contract as proof of the end date. Read the terms.
Website + Mail, per year €130 €32.50
Your first yearly invoice is €32.50 instead of €130: 9 months off, 75%. You save €97.50 (excl. VAT).

Example
An example situation
In Almelo, a toy shop has been selling over the counter for years. Customers from Wierden and Borne ask more and more often whether they can order something, but online there is only an old page with an address.
Her first step is a WhatsApp message. We set up a WordPress online shop, arrange the domain and SSL and leave the old page online until the nameservers are switched. Her email then runs through her own domain.
Trades
Retail stands out most in Almelo: shops are represented one and a half times as strongly here as in the rest of the country. Advisers and designers are the second biggest group, followed by construction.
19.1% of business locations1.5 times the national average
With 1,605 locations this is the biggest group. Always keep address and opening hours up to date, public holidays included. If you also want to sell online, we host a WordPress online shop and migrate an existing shop for free.
17.0% of business locations
Someone looking for an adviser in Almelo googles the name first. Among 1,430 peers, a small site with a page per service, a short description of how you work and a contact form is enough. Let your email come from your own domain, and every quote carries your own name.
12.1% of business locations
With 1,015 building firms in Almelo, your work area is the first thing a customer wants to know. Put Wierden, Borne or Tubbergen on the site if you work there. Photos of finished work tell a customer more than long texts, and a simple quote form is enough.
