STEP 01

The brief

Wazer Taxis provides local taxi and transport services in and around Southampton, competing directly against national ride-booking apps that dominate app-store listings and paid advertising. A firm like this has a strong base of repeat customers with the number already saved — the opportunity is the passenger who searches “taxi Southampton” and expects to find a bookable local option in seconds.

The brief was a site that makes booking a ride as fast as calling one, sets out clearly what the firm actually offers, and gives a first-time passenger the reassurance of a real, established local operator.

STEP 02

The build

We placed contact options — phone number and booking request — prominently on every page, with service information laid out clearly so passengers know what’s available before they get in touch: local journeys, airport transfers, advance bookings.

The whole site is structured around local search, with content and metadata built specifically for “taxi Southampton” and related terms, so people looking for a ride in the area can find Wazer directly rather than defaulting to a national app by habit.

STEP 03

The outcome

Wazer Taxis has a site where service information and a clear way to book are visible immediately, with no hunting for a phone number or guessing what’s on offer.

Because the structure is built around local Southampton search terms, it gives the firm a genuine chance of being found by passengers searching in the area rather than losing that search to a national app — and gives first-time passengers the reassurance of a proper web presence behind the phone number.
