Websites for small businesses in Manchester, NH

Manchester is in southern New Hampshire, about 27 miles from our office in Stratham. We build websites, online booking and small software tools for local businesses, and these are the numbers that made us look closer at Manchester.

What we found in Manchester

In October 2026 we looked up 279 Manchester businesses on Google Maps. The biggest groups were auto shops (31), barber shops (26) and salons (21).

279Manchester businesses we looked up
50/279no website, or only a social page
9/174website links on Google that go nowhere
18/99appointment businesses with no online booking

99 of the working sites belonged to appointment businesses (auto shops, salons and gyms). 18 of them had no way to book online, so every appointment means a phone call during business hours.

48 had no website on their Google listing at all, and 2 more only linked to a Facebook or Instagram page. Someone searching on a phone gets a phone number and not much else. That is less than the 23% we saw across all 34 towns we checked.

We opened 174 of the websites listed on Google. 9 went nowhere: the page didn't load or showed an error, including 4 that landed on a parked domain or an expired-site page. Anyone who taps one of those links gets nothing.

2 of the 165 working sites weren't set up for phones, so the text shows up tiny and people pinch to zoom.

Groomers were the group most often missing a real website: 7 of the 9 we looked up had none, or only a social page.

How we counted: businesses we found on Google Maps in October 2026 while looking for salons, barbers, auto shops, trades, gyms, groomers and similar local businesses. Chains and medical offices are left out. A "dead" link means the website on the Google listing didn't load, showed an error or showed a parked page when we opened it. We don't name anyone, and the numbers are a snapshot.
