Ed’s Garden Maintenance launches new web site


Ed’s Garden Maintenance launches new website
“Here at Ed’s we are very excited about having just launched a brand new website. We had a perfectly good website before but if a business really wants to be in online pole position, it’s very important to be keeping pace with the rapidly changing online operating environment. We only launched our new website at the beginning of the month in time for the Google update and already levels of phone and web new business enquiries are running even higher than is the norm at this busy time of year.”

Ed’s Garden Maintenance has a unique advantage in this area as its founder, Ed Mauleverer, has a stellar background in systems development and technical areas such as search engine optimisation.  This puts Ed’s in an excellent position to develop bespoke systems solutions that are well beyond the sophistication level of most companies of that size. 

In Ed’s own words, “A key element of our franchise offering is a very powerful online presence to help Franchise Operators to achieve aggressive business growth. The horizons are constantly changing – people are generally aware of the changes Google are making with a view of higher efficiency in the search engine domain but this is only the very tip of the iceberg.  In Ed’s we see it as our responsibility to keep up with all of this – to harness the challenge and to turn it to our advantage.  There are many facets of having a strong online presence, but an excellent website is probably the jewel in the crown.  We have spent a lot of time developing our new website using and customizing brand new technologies in areas such as responsive web design to work on all types of devices – truly key in the brave new world in which we’re competing.  A huge amount of effort has gone into this but we believe that it puts us in an excellent position to take our brand forward and to leverage business opportunity for our network”.  

Another feature of the new website is the incorporation of micro-sites for individual Operators.  This is key to promoting local gardening businesses within a high-profile global brand context. 

Finally, the website boasts an impressive customer review capability.  In the words of Paul, who runs his Ed’s business in Swindon.  “The website is really impressive and I am thrilled to have my own micro-site on it to push my local business.  I am also very excited by the customer review capability.  I know this is great for pushing us up the search engine rankings, but I also love the fact that the proof of my commitment and professionalism is out there for potential customers to see. It is so much more powerful if customers’ belief in you is written in black and white.”

Wonderful Review

Ed’s Garden Maintenance Operator Mark Young who covers the Bournemouth area sent in this review from one of his customers with some photographs.


“Mark did wonderful work updating my front garden and putting raised beds into the back garden.  All work was carried out professionally, with great consideration to ensuring I was happy with the finished result.  At all times the areas were kept clean and tidy and Mark stayed in touch to ensure I was happy with the progress and to inform me of what was happening next.  Would highly recommend.”

Mark said, the job came in as a one-off mow in the summer, however following discussions the customer mentioned she would like some landscaping work carried out.  Mark said this could be carried out in November/December and the customer was happy to wait.

End of Tenancy Rescue

Ed’s Garden Maintenance Operator Clive from Hampton and Middlesex sent in these before and after photographs.
Clive said “The turf cost £40 plus half a days work and this enabled the Hampton tenant to have the garden reinstated back into better condition than at the start of the tenancy.   This secured return of his deposit in full, and the sale of the property on the 1st day of viewing for his landlord.”  A great investment!

The Dangers of Using a Blow Torch

Ed’s Garden Maintenance Operator Mark who covers the Bournemouth area sent in these photographs with the following explanation:-

Mark was contacted by the customer after his neighbour had managed to catch fire to his hedge.  The neighbour was using a blow-torch to kill weeds and caught the fence alight which subsequently set alight the conifer hedge.  By the time the fire brigade arrived and put out the fire, over half the hedge had been burnt.  Mark was asked to remove the entire hedge including twenty conifer stumps and prepare the area for a fence to be erected and then create a border so that shrubs could be planted.  
What a great job Mark has done.

Mark said “This clearly demonstrates how dangerous using a blow torch for weed killing can be!”  The customer is so pleased with Mark’s work that he is now doing regular work for him.
