Do I need a website for my salon?
Last updated by the LushLane editorial team.
Short answer
You need an indexed page with your services, prices, photos, hours and a live booking button — not necessarily an expensive custom website. Instagram alone does not rank in Google and cannot take bookings reliably. LushLane includes a free indexed salon website with live booking at £22/month.
What a salon website must do
Rank for your service plus your area, show current prices, prove quality with real photos and reviews, and let someone book at 11pm without messaging you. Anything beyond that is decoration.
Social media is not a substitute
Instagram and Facebook pages barely appear in Google's local results and route bookings through DMs, which is where appointments get lost. Use social to drive people to a bookable page.
