When someone hears about a good local bakery, the first thing they do is look you up. They want to see what you make, check you’re open today and work out how to get their hands on a loaf or a birthday cake. If all they find is a quiet Facebook page or a listing with no photos, they hesitate, and a hesitating customer is one who walks past. Page Forge builds bakeries a proper website that shows the bakes, the hours and the way to order, so the person searching turns into the person at the counter.

You do not need to know anything technical, and you certainly do not have time to learn it between the early starts and the lunchtime rush. Tell us what you bake, where you are and how people order, and we handle the design, the words, your domain and the hosting. One page, built to load fast and look right on a phone, because that is where a hungry customer is standing when they search. We write it so Google understands you are the bakery in your town, not a supermarket in-store counter, and we can set up your Google Business Profile so you appear on the map when someone nearby searches for fresh bread or a celebration cake.

We are based in Hassocks and work with independents right across Sussex and beyond. A good example is Ruby’s Bakery in Burgess Hill, which came to us from a slow site and now loads fast and shows its cakes the way they deserve. If you sell online as well, say postal brownies or a proper click-and-collect order form with payment, that is a bigger build we quote to match rather than shoehorn into the one-page price. Most bakeries, though, do brilliantly with one clear page, a phone that rings and a Google listing that keeps the door swinging.

What your website needs to bring in work

photo_camera

Photos that sell the bake

Good, large photos of your bread, pastries and cakes, laid out so they load fast and look sharp on a phone. People buy with their eyes first, so the pictures come before the paragraphs, not buried at the bottom of the page. If you do not have decent shots yet, we will tell you plainly what to photograph and how, because in this trade the pictures do most of the selling.

schedule

Opening hours, front and centre

The single most common question a bakery gets is whether you are open now. We put your hours where they cannot be missed, and note the days you sell out early or shut at lunch, so nobody drives over to a locked door and a dark window. Getting this right quietly saves you a stream of phone calls and stops a first-time customer giving up on you before they have tasted a thing.

map

Easy to find and park

A clear map, your address and a word on parking or the nearest spot to pull in. We link it to your Google Business Profile so directions are one tap away, which matters when someone is deciding between you and the supermarket aisle on the way home. The easier you are to reach on a busy morning, the more of that passing trade actually turns into a sale rather than a good intention.

cake

Celebration cake enquiries

Custom cakes are where the good margin sits, and they are worth making easy to order. We give you a simple way to take an enquiry, whether that is a short form or a clear prompt to call or message, with a note on how much notice you need for a bespoke order and any deposit. That way the fiddly questions are answered up front and you spend less time on the phone talking through the basics.

storefront

What you make, in plain words

Sourdough, gluten-free, vegan, cakes to order, wholesale trays for local cafes, whatever your range actually is. We list it clearly so people know before they visit, which cuts the awkward conversations at a busy counter when someone asks for something you have never made. It also helps you show up when a customer searches for a specific thing, like a gluten-free birthday cake, that the bigger chains simply do not offer.

reviews

Trust the town already gives you

A line of real reviews and any awards, hygiene rating or local press builds the confidence a new customer needs before they change their usual routine. We never invent them, we simply show the ones you have earned so a first-time visitor sees that their neighbours already rate you. In a trade built on word of mouth, putting that word where a stranger can read it is one of the cheapest wins there is.

Three steps. That’s it.

No jargon, no committees, no six-week timelines. We get your area businesses online fast.

Common questions

I already sell fine through the shop and Facebook, why do I need a website?
Facebook is great for regulars who already follow you, but it is poor at catching the new customer who has just moved to the area or searched “bakery near me” at half past eight in the morning. Those people end up on Google, not scrolling your feed, and a website plus a tidy Google Business Profile is what puts you in front of them. It is also yours, not rented from a platform that can change its reach or its rules overnight. It works while you are at the oven at 4am, quietly answering the questions you would otherwise field one call at a time.
Can people order or pay online?
A simple enquiry or click-and-collect form is straightforward and we can add one, so people can reserve a cake or a batch of loaves and settle up in person. Full online ordering with payment taken up front, delivery slots and live stock counts is a bigger build, so we quote that to match rather than pretend it fits the one-page price. For most bakeries, a clear page showing your range and your hours, with an easy way to enquire about cakes, brings in the work without the cost and admin of running a full online shop.
Will it help me show up on Google Maps?
Yes, and that is a big part of the point. We build the site to be found in local searches and we can set up or tidy your Google Business Profile, which is the listing with your photos, hours and reviews that appears on the map and down the side of a Google search. When someone nearby searches for fresh bread, a sourdough loaf or a birthday cake, that listing and your site are what puts you in front of them at the exact moment they are deciding where to go.
My bakes and my hours change. Can I keep it current?
You just email or message us and we make the change, included, up to six times a year. Seasonal ranges, hot cross buns, Christmas order deadlines, a change to your Sunday hours, that sort of thing. No logins to wrestle with and no risk of breaking your own site with a stray click. If you want to post daily specials or a sold-out note, that is exactly what your Google Business Profile and social pages are for, and we will set you up so a quick post from your phone reaches the people already looking for you.
How fast can it be live and what does it cost?
About five working days once we have your photos and details. It is £99 one-off to set up, then £29 a month or £299 a year, and that covers the hosting, the domain help, the ongoing updates and a real person in Sussex to call when you need something changed. SEO to push you up the local rankings starts from £99 as a one-off. There is no WordPress to maintain, no pile of plugins and no surprise bills, which is the whole point: you get on with baking and the website just works.
