Website design in Spartanburg, SC

Spartanburg is the Hub City and the seat of its own county, and its customers search with its own name. We build websites for home service businesses that work there, then keep them running every month.

Spartanburg at a glance

A few public facts that shape how a local trade business should present itself online.

  • Its own county seat. Spartanburg is the seat of Spartanburg County, a separate market from Greenville County, with its own towns and its own daily paper, the Spartanburg Herald-Journal.
  • 38,732 people in the 2020 census, up from 37,013 in 2010, inside a county that also takes in Boiling Springs, Duncan and part of Greer.
  • A health care and college town. Spartanburg Regional is the city's largest employer, and Wofford College and Converse University sit close to downtown.
  • Big employers next door. Milliken & Company has its headquarters here, and the BMW plant near Greer is in Spartanburg County.

What that means for your site

Someone in Spartanburg with a leaking water heater types "plumber Spartanburg", not "plumber Greenville". If your site only names Greenville, it can miss them even when you would gladly make the drive.

So we name Spartanburg where it is true: on your service area list, in your Google Business Profile, and on a dedicated page if you have real work and real photos there. A page about the east side of the Upstate should read like you know it, because you do.

The rest of the plan is the same for every client. We write the copy, build the site, link Google Analytics, Search Console and your profile, then host it and make your edits every month. Launch usually takes about two weeks once we have your information.

Spartanburg website questions

You are in Greenville. Do you take on Spartanburg businesses?

Yes. Spartanburg is about 30 miles from Greenville, roughly 45 minutes by car on I-85. The plans, prices and reply time are the same as for a Greenville business. Most of the work happens by phone, email and video. When a project needs it, Kyle can meet in person in Spartanburg.

I work in both Greenville County and Spartanburg County. Do I need two sites?

No. One site can cover both counties. In the Mark out step we list every area you work, and the places where you really do jobs get their own section or page, so a search in Spartanburg finds a page that talks about Spartanburg.

Will my Spartanburg page just be my Greenville page with the name swapped?

No. Google treats copy-and-swap town pages as spam, and customers see through them. A town page should say something true about your work there: the neighborhoods you cover, how fast you can get there, photos of local jobs. If there is nothing like that yet, the town is a line on your service area list instead.

Does my Google Business Profile need to list Spartanburg?

If you take jobs there, your profile service area and your website should say the same thing. We link the profile to your site, and on Local and Growth we add a profile post every week.

What does a site cost for a Spartanburg business?

The same as anywhere: Site at $199, Local at $349 and Growth at $499 a month. No launch fee and no minimum term. See pricing for what each plan includes.
