What we do for businesses in Merseyside
Merseyside isn’t just Liverpool. The county sweeps from Southport in the north down through the Wirral, takes in St Helens to the east, and includes Knowsley and Halton too. Each part has its own character. We’ve worked with clients across most of it – mostly Liverpool city centre and Southport, but also out toward the Wirral and St Helens.
Merseyside is a bigger market than its individual parts suggest. Liverpool city centre’s the obvious draw – the docks, the creative quarter, the growing fintech and life-sciences clusters. But the surrounding towns matter too. Southport’s resort and retail economy. The Wirral’s affluent commuter belt. St Helens and Knowsley’s industrial and logistics base.
We’re a small Cheshire team that’s an hour down the road. Properly built websites that don’t slow under heavy product catalogues. Local SEO that actually gets your Google Business Profile showing up for searches in your specific town. Ad campaigns built around what brings real enquiries.

Local SEO matters more across Merseyside than people realise. The county’s full of search demand that’s still only half-served by the agencies fighting for it. “Plumber Liverpool”, “hairdresser Southport”, “accountant Wirral” – thousands of local searches a month each, and most of the local pack results are sitting at three reviews from 2019.
What consistently works: a properly maintained Google Business Profile with current photos and regular posts. Accurate citations across the directories that actually matter. Location-specific landing pages that aren’t just town-name find-and-replace. A steady drip of fresh reviews from real clients.
None of it is glamorous. All of it compounds.

Frequently asked questions
Are you actually based in Merseyside?
No, we’re in Cheshire – around an hour down the M62 in Northwich. We work with Merseyside clients regularly across Liverpool, Southport and the surrounding areas. Most prefer the lower overhead more than they need an office on Bold Street.
Which parts of Merseyside do you cover?
All of it. Liverpool city centre and the inner suburbs are our most common patch. Southport in the north – we have a dedicated page for that. The Wirral is straightforward to reach. St Helens, Knowsley and Halton are all within easy distance for kickoff meetings.
Do you understand the Liverpool market specifically?
Yes. We have a dedicated Liverpool page that goes into the city specifically – the creative quarter, fintech and life sciences, hospitality, professional services. The Liverpool market has its own rhythms that are different from the wider county.
How often will we speak?
As often as the work needs it. A regular reporting call as standard, plus whatever else crops up in between. All over video, so booking a slot takes a minute and nobody loses a morning to travel.
What's the smallest budget you'll work with?
Web design starts in the low thousands. Ongoing services start at a few hundred a month. We’ll tell you straight on the first call whether your budget fits.

Who you'll actually be working with
We founded Cheshire Cat Marketing in 2016 after watching too many small businesses burn through agency budgets and end up with a slow site and a stack of invoices.
We work with businesses across the UK and into Finland and Sweden, and every bit of it is done in-house. Whoever you speak to first is the person doing the work, and they stay with you. Nobody is passing your messages to a separate team.
- Five-star rated, every review 54 reviews across Google and Facebook. Not one of them below five stars.
- Award-winning Shortlisted more times than we can neatly list, and we've taken a good few home.
- Everything done in-house No freelancers, no white-label, nobody you've never met touching your account.
- Outspoken, honest support We'll tell you when something won't work, even when it'd be easier to take the money.
What our clients say about us
Five-star rated on Google and Facebook. No filtering, no pay-to-play, just honest reviews from real clients.
I’ve just phoned and spoken to Rhi, who has been absolutely incredible! I phoned to cheekily ask for some advice, as I am fundraising for a charity event. She was incredible, offering advice, guidance and ideas. The support was truly incredible and has allowed me now to hopefully generate more publicity and support for the event I am supporting.I am in awe of her friendly disposition and her generosity of her experience.Her entire demeanour was approachable and supportive and offered a true unique perspective, whilst being situational and economically aware.So pleased, and touched to have had such a wonderful and postive interaction and would encourage anyone to use their services again.
The Cheshire Cat team are fantastic. They really care about understanding your business and doing a great job. Each time they send me some posts to approve I'm always thrilled with the results - and with 20+ years marketing experience, I'm not an easy person to please! We've seen our followers steadily grow whilst we've been working with them - recommended!
