Directory of Chester has been running for just over three months now so we wanted to bring you an update to let you know what we have been up to and the plans for the future.
We started with the blog on 9th April and since then we have come on leaps and bounds.
Website upgrades
We upgraded to Arthemia for the blog at the end of April to bring you a more professional looking website to peruse.
Last week saw some fantastic upgrades to the Chester Business Directory with more to follow soon.
We are also expecting great improvements to the blog pages to match the two together.
Chester has welcomed us
Since we launched we have supplied you with events and entertainment, information about the Chester Races, Chester City Football Club news, the beginnings of the Chester Wedding Directory and our great Competition.
This is soon to be followed with details of shopping in Chester UK, restaurants and hotels.
We are also now bringing you regular Chester Business News features and updates.
The number of visitors to the site is growing well day by day and more and more of you are returning to the Directory of Chester to find the information you need.
Local Chester Businesses are taking advantage of the free listings facility on the Directory.
We’ve made friends!
The Chester and Cheshire community on Twitter have welcomed us with open arms. We aim to grow and develop these relationships to be valuable to those running Chester businesses and to deliver more of what you want to see on the Directory of Chester blog.
