About Us

Whether you’re a local tradesperson, a boutique retailer, or a growing consultancy, being found online can make a significant difference to your business. That’s where businesstrust.co.uk comes in – not merely as another business directory, but as a family-run, UK-based platform that genuinely supports businesses with integrity and care.

A family-run directory with a personal touch

BusinessTrust.co.uk is proudly family-run. We understand the challenges faced by small and medium-sized enterprises because we’ve experienced them ourselves. Our mission is straightforward: to offer a reliable, supportive, and effective online presence for UK businesses – without gimmicks, pressure tactics, or hidden fees.

We believe in building relationships, not just listings. Our customer service is personal and responsive. Whether you’re confident with digital tools or just starting out, we’re here to guide you through the process with clarity and genuine support.

Premium listings for businesses ready to grow only £10.99 per listing

For businesses looking to enhance their online presence, we offer premium listings at an affordable rate. These enhanced profiles include everything in the free listing, plus:

  • Priority placement in search results within our directory.
  • Expanded profile features, including image galleries, service highlights, and customer testimonials.
  • Blog and PR content written by our team to spotlight your business and improve your page rank.

Our premium listings are designed to offer real value. Unlike other directories, we don’t constantly push you to upgrade or buy additional services. You choose what’s right for your business, and we respect that.

Positive PR that builds your brand

One of the standout features of BusinessTrust.co.uk is our commitment to positive PR content. Every premium listing includes a professionally written blog post or feature article that highlights your business, your story, and your services.

Why does this matter? Because search engines favour fresh, relevant content. By publishing blog posts that include your business name and keywords, we help improve your visibility on Google and other search platforms. It’s a subtle but powerful way to build credibility and attract new customers.

And because we’re a UK-based directory, our content is tailored to local audiences. We understand the nuances of British business culture and write in a tone that resonates with your target market.

No cold calls. No pushy sales. Ever.

Let’s be honest—nobody enjoys being hounded by sales representatives. Unfortunately, many online directories rely on aggressive tactics to upsell services you don’t need. At BusinessTrust.co.uk, we take a different approach.

  • We never cold call our clients.
  • We never bombard you with emails or pressure you into upgrades.
  • We never sell your data or share your information with third parties.

Our philosophy is simple: if our services are valuable, you’ll choose to use them. We trust our clients to make informed decisions, and we’re always here to answer questions or offer support—without the hard sell.

Built for UK businesses, by UK business owners

BusinessTrust.co.uk is proudly UK-based. We’re not a global conglomerate trying to appeal to everyone—we’re focused on supporting British businesses with tools and services that actually work.

Our directory is optimised for UK search engines and local SEO, meaning your listing is more likely to appear when potential customers search for services in your area. Whether you’re in Newton-Le-Willows or Newcastle, our platform helps you connect with the right audience.
