The write-up
What a butcher's website needs to answer
The best thing a butcher can say online is where the meat comes from. Supermarkets talk about “British farms”. You can name the farm down the road, the breed, and how long the beef has been hanging. That’s the reason people walk past the chiller cabinet and come to you, and most butcher’s websites barely mention it.
So we start there. A page for the farms you buy from, with names, places and photos if the farmers are happy. A short explanation of how you hang and cut the meat. Cooking notes for the cuts people are less sure of, which also helps you sell more of the whole animal.
Christmas is the other big job. A pre-order form with turkeys, beef, gammons and the rest, plus clear collection days and a closing date, takes a great deal of pressure off December. Orders arrive in your inbox with the details you need, rather than on scraps of paper by the till. The same goes for barbecue packs in summer and meat boxes all year round. If you deliver, the site says exactly where and when.
The day-to-day details matter too. Opening hours, the half day you close, your food hygiene rating and a weekly specials list you can change by email. When someone searches “butcher near me”, fast pages, accurate structured data and a Google Business Profile that matches the site are what put you in that list.

Questions from butchers
Can customers place Christmas orders through the website?
Yes. We set up a pre-order form with collection days, closing dates and any deposit details, and orders come straight to your inbox. If you already use a payment system, we can link to it.
Can you build an online shop for meat boxes?
We don’t build online shops. We lay out your boxes clearly with what’s in them, and if you already sell through an ordering or payment system we link to it. Many butchers simply take box orders by form or phone.
Can I update the weekly specials?
Email us a line like “lamb shoulders on offer, sausages back in stock” and we’ll update the site, usually the same day. Ten changes a month are included.
Will my site show up when people search for a butcher nearby?
Every site is built with the foundations local search depends on: accurate hours and location in structured data, fast pages and clear area information. We’ll also help you keep your Google Business Profile consistent with the site.
How much does it cost?
£47 a month, including design, writing, hosting and ten changes a month. There’s no setup fee and no contract.
