Currently just one city, Portsmouth UK. I'm aware the name is ideal when typed/read from url. Very much welcome any feedback, thanks.

Perhaps make it more clear that only Portsmouth is the only city for now?

I kept searching for London / Croydon / Brighton expecting my city to update.

Thanks. Out of interest did you visit on desktop or mobile? (I'm not completely happy with the top nav on tablet/mobile.)

Nice looking website, but when a user clicks on 'where is my city?' it's probably worth taking them directly to the answer to that question rather than to the general FAQ page. Just a small thing, I know.

Also, you're right, the url is rather unfortunate.

You guys have got a decent amount of traffic already, though (10,000 uniques in June?)

Thanks. Good idea!

Yeah, it's around 13k/month at the mo. Not too bad considering it's just one city. Doing OK in Google too :)

13k/month is not bad at all for a new website in a (relatively) small English city. Time to expand to London? :)

We'll probably go for the low-hanging fruit first! :)
