Boost Your Business With Dumfries & Galloway’s Fastest Growing Media Platform
DGWGO is a Dumfries and Galloway based, award-winning, multimedia platform that has a monthly reach of almost 500,000
No other form of local media can provide your business with a bigger or more engaged audience.
Traditional forms of marketing, such as print and radio, are in fast decline and we can help you succeed in this ever-changing digital world.
Let’s Work Together
“An invaluable community hub flying the flag for D&G – highly recommended!”
Mostly Ghostly Tours
“DGWGO have helped us improve reach, boost our profile & ultimately convert more sales.”
Buccleuch and Queensberry Arms, Thornhill
A free online consumer magazine at the front line of what’s really going on in Dumfries and Galloway.
Since our launch in 2011, we have had one simple goal.
Build a digital resource that allowed folk to quickly discover what’s going on in Dumfries & Galloway.
DGWGO began with:-
- a Facebook Page
- the idea of a logo with a wee Beltie bull
- a love of Dumfries and Galloway
- a lot of determination
Six years later, Dugal (our wee Beltie Bull) and his posts are seen almost 500,000 a month.
The next goal for DGWGO is to develop a team that can help us drive tourism and industry to South West Scotland.
Over the last 12 months, we have been asking local businesses how DGWGO can help and the overwhelming response was guidance on how to succeed online.
So, that’s what we have created 🙂
