Forest Glen Businesses: Why Your Website Needs to Be as Impressive as Your Hinterland Views
A local's guide to getting your Forest Glen business discovered online - because being 'just past Kunara' isn't enough anymore.
If you've ever tried explaining to someone where Forest Glen is, you've probably found yourself saying "You know, just past Buderim, near Kunara Organic Marketplace?" Like many Forest Glen business owners, you know your location is perfect - but getting discovered can be tricky.
The Forest Glen Challenge: More Than Just "Near Kunara"
Let's be honest - being nestled between Maroochydore and Nambour has its perks. The peaceful hinterland vibes, the strategic location, that feeling when you zip past the Maroochydore traffic on your way home... But when it comes to getting your business noticed? That's where things get interesting.
Fun fact: I once had someone tell me they thought Forest Glen was "that suburb with the really good kombucha." They weren't wrong, but we're definitely more than that!
Why Your Online Presence Matters More Than Ever
Remember when everyone had to physically drive past your business on Mons Road? Those were the days. Then the Bruce Highway upgrade came along and suddenly, we're not exactly on the beaten path anymore.
Did you know 82% of Sunshine Coast residents search online before visiting a local business? That's a lot of potential customers who might never discover your Forest Glen gem without a strong web presence.
The Forest Glen Advantage (And Why Your Website Should Match It)
We've got some serious advantages here in Forest Glen. The Forest Glen Village development is bringing fresh energy to the area. We're perfectly positioned between the coast and hinterland. And let's not forget our reputation as the Sunshine Coast's wellness hub (I'm looking at you, Kunara).
But here's the thing - if your website doesn't reflect that same quality and professionalism, you're missing out on a massive opportunity.
