We claimed our spot on day one and within a few weeks we were getting enquiries from people we'd never have reached otherwise. Being the only web developer listed in Tranent means the right people find us - no competing with ten other agencies on the same page.
Top Banana put me in front of local clients I didn't know were looking - simple, no fuss, and it just works. I wasn't sure a local directory would work for voiceover, but the enquiries speak for themselves. Worth every penny.
About Roughcasters
A roughcaster applies a textured external finish to buildings - the traditional Scottish harling that protects stone and blockwork walls from the weather while giving them a clean, uniform appearance.
Harling is one of Scotland's most common wall finishes and when it cracks, blows or starts to let in damp, getting it patched or replaced promptly prevents more expensive damage to the masonry underneath.
Ask whether they use traditional lime harling or modern cement render - on older stone buildings, lime-based finishes allow the walls to breathe and avoid the moisture problems that cement can cause.

About Cruden Bay
Cruden Bay is a coastal village roughly twenty-five miles north of Aberdeen, famous for its magnificent sweep of pink-tinged sandy beach and its links golf course, which is consistently rated among the finest in Scotland. The ruined Slains Castle is said to have inspired Bram Stoker's vision of Dracula's castle.
The village has a primary school, a village shop and a small number of local amenities. It serves as a popular destination for golfers, walkers and beach visitors.
Properties in Cruden Bay include traditional cottages, larger Victorian and Edwardian houses and modern developments. The exposed coastal position demands robust building maintenance.
About Aberdeenshire
(opens in new tab)Aberdeenshire is one of the largest council areas in Scotland, wrapping around the city of Aberdeen in a broad arc that stretches from the Cairngorms in the west to the North Sea coast in the east and from the Angus border in the south to the Moray Firth in the north.
The region is extraordinarily varied: Royal Deeside - the valley of the River Dee running west from Aberdeen through Banchory, Aboyne, Ballater and Braemar - is one of Scotland's most celebrated landscapes, closely associated with the royal family through Balmoral Castle. The Donside valley to the north offers a quieter, equally attractive alternative.
The north-east coast has a distinctive character shaped by centuries of fishing, with harbours at Peterhead, Fraserburgh, Macduff and a string of smaller ports that once landed vast quantities of herring and white fish. Peterhead remains one of the busiest fishing ports in Europe and the coastal towns retain a strong working identity.
Inland, the rolling farmland of Buchan, the Garioch and the Mearns supports a productive agricultural economy. Market towns like Inverurie, Ellon, Huntly and Turriff serve as local centres for their surrounding districts and many have grown significantly as commuter settlements for Aberdeen.
The North Sea oil and gas industry transformed the region's economy from the 1970s onward, bringing prosperity and population growth to towns within commuting distance of Aberdeen. That legacy continues in the energy transition, with Aberdeenshire positioning itself at the centre of Scotland's renewable energy future.
