Escape into nature? Don't mind if we do! 🌿✨

We’ve been busy working behind the scenes on a gorgeous new website for The Old Mountain Stables Holidays, and it is officially live! Based in the heart of South Wales, this former block of 16 competition stables has been beautifully converted into four stunning, 5-star self-catering holiday apartments.

What are the 7 SEO mistakes holding your site back?

Most businesses tend to make at least three of these SEO mistakes, often without even realising! The tricky part is that even a fantastic website can have trouble ranking well if the basics aren’t in place.

Things like slow loading times or a weak keyword plan might seem small, but over time, they can quietly harm your visibility, traffic, and conversions.

That’s where DITS can help. Request your free website review using the link below, and we can handle the legwork - https://f.mtr.cool/htxwfphpka

How many of these does your website tick off?

Your website should be your star salesperson, so is it acting the part?

It may not be a question that you have ever asked yourself, but we all know that your site needs to be doing the legwork that it is there for, and ultimately converting your visitors into customers.

Sadly, a lot of business sites don’t quite get there. They get some clicks (maybe), but then nothing much happens. If that sounds familiar, it could be time for your free website review.

Having looked at quite a few websites lately, we’ve been noticing that small tweaks often make a huge difference. So if you are ready for what comes next, get in touch, and we will guide you through the steps you need to take for your website's growth!

Do you ever feel like your website is a bit of a ghost town?

You've put in the effort, and your site is looking good, but the visitors just aren’t turning up. Sometimes, there are sneaky little reasons behind your low ranking, with things like slow loading speeds or missing metadata being common factors that people don’t pick up on.

But don’t panic just yet, it’s not a lost cause, as most of these are easily fixable!

However, like everything, knowing where to start is half the battle. So, request your free website review today, and we can tell you where to start.

Some of you may be familiar with our wonderful studio manager and head of happiness, Liz, who went on maternity leave a few months ago. Well, the DITS crew were able to catch up with Liz and meet her baby daughter over lunch recently.

It was lovely to see her and have the team back together again. So, if you have been thinking about reaching out to someone you haven't seen recently or meeting up with an old friend, take this as a sign to do it. You never know, they may have been wanting to speak to you, too!

We are all stronger when surrounded by people who uplift us!

5 Signs Your Website Isn’t Working 👀

You're getting visitors, but no one’s asking questions or getting in touch
People are finding your site, but they’re not taking the next step. This usually means your message, calls to action, or how you guide visitors aren’t working as well as they need to be.

Your site looks old or confusing on mobile
Most people use their phones to browse online now, so if your website feels clunky, slow, or hard to use on a phone, visitors won’t want to stay.

Visitors leave your site very quickly
If lots of people leave after just a few seconds, it might mean they can’t quickly see what you offer, or your site doesn’t make a good first impression.

People can’t figure out what you do
If someone lands on your homepage and can’t understand what your business is about within a few seconds, your message needs to be clearer in order to draw them in.

You’re a bit embarrassed to send people there
Your website should be a proud reflection of your business today, not something you are ashamed of.

People often ask why we’re not tucked away somewhere in a city skyscraper. But how could you beat the rolling Malvern Hills and the space to be creative?

A lot of our team take countryside walks on their lunch breaks or enjoy a book with gorgeous views over the hills. With culture and wellbeing at the centre of DITS ethos, these kinds of perks for our team mean a lot more to us than people may realise.

We’re also really proud to be a local agency with a national reach and the ability to bring that 'big city' style know-how right to the heart of Worcestershire. We love our roots, and proving that great creative work doesn’t need a London postcode.

You may remember a few weeks ago, Ben and Ali attended the Pig and Poultry Show 2026…

Well, you may not know that the DITS team were lucky enough to create the graphics and printed material for The Climatec Group, which really brought their stand to life, as well as designing their new website. But more important than that is the wonderful feedback Ben and the team received:

“The Climatec Group are absolutely delighted with their new website created by the professional creative team at Design in the Shires.
Their outstanding customer service and attention to detail is second to none and we are so grateful for their input at our recent trade stand at the Pig & Poultry Show 2026.
Ben and his team created all the graphic panels and show stand literature, for which we have received numerous compliments.
We cannot recommend DITS highly enough.”

Thank you, Climatec, for such a wonderful review!

Your website looks good, but is it actually generating enquiries?

Most of the time, a lack of enquiries isn’t because the site looks bad, it’s probably something a lot simpler than that.

Maybe there’s no clear next step. It could be that what you offer isn’t obvious right away. Perhaps there’s nothing encouraging someone to get in touch. Most of the time, these sites aren’t actually broken, they just aren't set up to convert visitors into customers. So if your site’s feeling a bit quiet, then we know a great place to start.

Ready to elevate your brand from average to aspirational? 🤔

We know that, as a business owner, it can sometimes feel like you are stuck with the public perception you have, rather than it being something you are able to craft for yourself.

But becoming an aspirational business is actually easier than you may think!

This post looks at how to define your brand's purpose, leverage your story and build a cohesive strategy that motivates your customers.

Let us help you design an identity that embodies your ambition!
