Beauty salons in Reggio Emilia: how they perform online
In the province of Reggio Emilia (Emilia-Romagna) we checked each of the 186 beauty salons: a total of 55% have no website, above the national average of 49% e worse than its regional average (49%). It is the 81ª province out of 104 in the national ranking for digitalisation in the sector.
Compared with the rest of Italy, Reggio Emilia is lagging behind: the share of salons that cannot be reached online is among the highest, meaning a local Google search returns very few well-established options. Salons that present themselves well are not competing with ten others: they are competing with two or three.

If you own a salon a Reggio Emilia
The digital gap is an opportunity: if, in your province, 55% of salons cannot be reached online, those who act first capture the demand others miss. Three things matter straight away:
- A responsive website that loads quickly on mobile, with clearly visible prices and booking options.
- A well-maintained Google Business Profile: opening hours, photos, reviews with replies.
- A way to respond to enquiries immediately: someone who messages three salons books with the first to reply.
You will find them explained step by step in the marketing guide for beauty salons, in the guide on how to fill your appointment book and in the guide on WhatsApp and AI.
