Glide
A Chelmsford marketing agency that does the work, not just the talking
Three things we do better than most agencies. All included in one subscription if you need them.
Web Design
We build fast, conversion-focused websites that bring in enquiries. Every site includes SEO foundations, mobile responsiveness and a clear path from landing to lead. You get a site that works for your business, not a template that looks pretty but does nothing.
Web design for Chelmsford businesses →SEO + Search Growth
Getting found on Google is the main reason businesses come to us. We optimise your site for traditional search and AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini, build local search presence, and show you real Search Console proof rather than vague promises.
SEO for Chelmsford businesses →Ongoing Improvement
A website is not a one-off project. We keep improving yours with monthly updates, content additions, conversion testing and search performance work. The subscription model means we are always working on your site, not handing it over and walking away.
See how our subscription works →What makes Glide different from other Chelmsford marketing agencies
Most agencies talk a good game. Here is what is different about working with us.
Founder-led, not account-managed
You deal with Mike, the founder, and the same small senior team throughout. No account managers relaying messages between you and an unseen "delivery team". The person you speak to is the person doing the work. That means faster decisions, fewer misunderstandings, and a working relationship built on direct communication.
Chelmsford pricing, not London pricing
A London agency pays London rent, London salaries and charges London rates for it. We work from Chelmsford and pass those savings on. Our subscription starts at £350/mo. The quality of the work is the same. The price is not.
Subscription with a buyout, not a lock-in
We do not trap you in a contract. Your subscription runs month to month and you can cancel at any time. If you want to own the website outright, there is a clear buyout option. Most agencies would rather you never asked about that.
Real client results, shown publicly
We publish real Search Console screenshots and case study data. Not hypothetical projections or "we helped a national brand" stories with no name attached. CLG Academy ranks #1 for local cricket coaching. Britannia Cues saw 242% more organic traffic. Proflax Natural grew online revenue 10x. These are real businesses with real numbers.
No one-off builds that go stale
A one-off website build is a depreciating asset. Without ongoing maintenance, content updates and search work, it loses ground. Our model means your site is always improving. We do not build and walk away.
Real results from a Chelmsford marketing agency
These are not hypotheticals. These are Chelmsford and Essex businesses we have worked with directly.
CLG Academy
#1 on Google
For local cricket coaching searches. We built their website, optimised their local SEO and now they dominate their local market. A small Chelmsford business competing with national brands and winning.
Britannia Cues
242% more organic traffic
An established brand with an underperforming website. We rebuilt it with proper SEO foundations, improved the content structure and drove a 242% increase in organic search traffic.
Proflax Natural
10x online revenue
A small supplement brand that needed to sell online properly. We built their ecommerce site, optimised for conversions and search, and took their online revenue from modest to ten times what it was.
A Chelmsford marketing agency you can visit
We are based at 5 Salmon Court, Bishop Road, Chelmsford CM1 1PX. You are welcome to visit, though most of our client relationships work perfectly well over calls and video. The important thing is that we are local, we are reachable, and we understand the Chelmsford and Essex business community because we are part of it.

Marketing agency Chelmsford: questions business owners ask
Same quality of work, without the London price tag. A Chelmsford agency does not carry the rent, overheads and salary costs of a central London office, which means your budget goes further on the actual work. You also get a team that understands the Essex and East of England business landscape, not just the London bubble.
At Glide, our subscription model starts at £350 per month for a Growth website with SEO foundations built in. Deeper SEO campaigns typically start at £1,000 per month. There is no long lock-in, and we offer a buyout option if you ever want to own the site outright. Compare that to London agencies charging £3,000 to £10,000 per month for the same services.
Yes. We are based in Chelmsford and work with businesses across Essex, Suffolk, London and throughout the UK. Our local base helps us serve Chelmsford businesses particularly well, but our strategies are not location-limited.
We build high-performance websites, get you found on Google through SEO and AI search optimisation, and keep improving your site month after month. Web design, technical SEO, local SEO, content creation, conversion rate optimisation, and ongoing growth strategy are all covered under one clear monthly subscription.
Everything is done by our small senior team based in Chelmsford. No outsourcing to freelancers you will never meet, no juniors learning on your budget, no account manager passing messages between you and the people doing the work. When you speak to us, you speak to the person building your site and growing your traffic.
A new Growth website typically starts generating organic traffic within the first month because we build it with SEO foundations from day one. Deeper ranking improvements take 3-6 months depending on your industry and competition. We show you real Search Console data, not vanity metrics.
Yes. We audit your existing site, identify what is holding it back, and either rebuild it properly or improve what you have. Many clients come to us after a one-off build that went stale because nobody was maintaining it. We make sure that does not happen again.
We offer a 100-day money-back guarantee. If you are not happy with our service within the first 100 days, we will refund you. No questions asked. We also do not lock you into a long contract. You can cancel at any time, and if you want to own the site, there is a clear buyout option.
