What that means for google ads in Somerset
With 3,730 construction firms, the searches that matter here are job-shaped and urgent: "emergency", "near me", "same day". Those land in the map pack far more than in organic, so the profile does the heavy lifting and the site backs it up.
Advertisers in this market are bidding up to £12.06 for a click, which tells you what a lead is worth here and how much room there is to be outbid.
What we will not promise
Paid search has no address requirement, so unlike the map pack there is nothing structural stopping us competing in Somerset from Bethnal Green. What we will not do is promise a cost per lead before we have seen your account and the live auction. Anyone who quotes you one without that is guessing. You do not pay us until the work brings you clients.
How it works, and what decides the cost in Somerset
We do not publish a price, because the honest answer depends on the market. What moves it here: how many businesses are already competing in Somerset (28,445), and how far off page one you are starting.
What does not change: the market analysis is free and comes first, we say so plainly if Somerset is not winnable for you, you do not pay until the work is bringing you clients and has paid for itself, we take one business per trade per area, and it is rolling with no lock-in.
Where we are
