We spoke to Daily.co.uk web hosting customer Jane Bell of Sussex Travel Clinic, an independent clinic that specialises in providing health advice and vaccinations for UK travellers venturing abroad. Established in 2007 by Jane and fellow travel health advisor Helen Thorpe, Sussex Travel Clinic is a great example of trained professionals taking their extensive experience and building an independent business with the help of the internet.
Yours is an existing company which was taken online – what have been the benefits in having an internet presence?
Every business needs a website these days – it’s an essential route to market. We have found our trade via the internet is increasing month on month.
Can you talk us through the evolution of your website?
We intially purchased an Instant Website from Daily, which proved a really cheap and easy way to get us out there. After a while, we felt we wanted a more flexible professional look, so we upgraded to a web hosting account and our new website was designed this year by a professional web design company.
What was the biggest challenge you faced in getting www.sussextravelclinic.com to where it is now?
Getting listed in Google. Lots of hard work adding ourselves to local directories and ensuring the right keywords were in place. It doesn’t stop there, though – we aim to continue to promote our site and maintain our strong listings in order to continue to increase the amount of business driven by our website.
What attracted you to Daily.co.uk?
The price and ease of use with all the products on offer. We have found all the staff very helpful at Daily. The products on offer are very reasonable and are great for people like us who had no experience in this area.
