A website built for Blandford Forum garages
Blandford Forum is a Georgian market town on the A354 between Salisbury and Dorchester, the kind of place where one good independent garage serves a wide rural catchment. That catchment is exactly why a website matters: drivers from the surrounding villages need to find you, check their MOT, and book without a game of phone-tag. MOTHQ gives your garage online booking with live DVLA reg lookup, automatic MOT reminders by text, and a tidy customer database — all under your own domain. It links through to our pages for Wimborne, Dorchester and Salisbury, so a garage in Blandford stays visible right along the A354.

Local questions
A local supplier, not a call centre
My customers come from villages for miles around — does that work online?
That is exactly what the site is for. Drivers across the rural catchment can find you, check their MOT and book, without everyone having to phone during working hours.
Would you actually travel out to Blandford?
Yes. Eric visits garages along the A354 corridor from his base in Poole, so an in-person meeting in Blandford Forum is no problem.
Is it all on my own web address?
Yes — your site runs on your own domain (or a free mothq.co.uk one if you prefer), with hosting, SSL and support all included in the one price.
The maths is simple
One extra MOT a month covers it.
The maximum UK MOT is £54.85. As a founding garage you pay £49.50/month — less than a single MOT — locked at that price for life. If our reminders bring back ONE customer per month, you've already broken even.
Automatic reminders are the single biggest reason customers come back instead of drifting to the dealership.
