The plan

What we would do in Dukinfield

Almost never one big thing. Several small ones, and in a market this size fixing even two of them usually changes the order.

Build for the trade that is actually searched hereOne trade dominates what people search for in Dukinfield: locksmith, on around 30 searches a month against 10 for the next one down. If that is what you do, everything starts there: one page built properly for it will do more than five built for things nobody here is looking for.

A busy auction at an ordinary priceDukinfield is contested without being expensive. Position comes from relevance rather than from outbidding anybody, which means the ad text and the page behind it decide more here than the budget does.

Set your service area to the ground you actually coverDukinfield is its own town rather than a suburb, and that works in your favour. Ashton-under-Lyne is under three kilometres away. Hyde is under three kilometres away. Audenshaw is under three kilometres away. A business pinned here reaches all of them well inside a twenty minute drive, so we set your area to match the van rather than the postcode.

Cut the searches that waste the budgetIn a market this size every wasted click is a bigger share of the budget than it would be elsewhere, so the first job is subtraction rather than bidding. Strip out the jobs you do not take, the areas you do not cover and the people who are only reading. In Dukinfield the searches worth keeping are a locksmith, a builder, an electrician.

Send the click to a page about what they searchedA click for one trade landing on a homepage that lists eight is the most common reason ads cost more than they should. One page per campaign, matching the words in the ad.

Set the budget against what a job is worthAt those prices, and with advertisers in Dukinfield bidding as hard as they do, a monthly figure picked in advance is how budgets get spent without anybody knowing whether they worked. Work back from what one enquiry is worth to you and how many you convert.

The market

What Dukinfield is worth

The searches here are real but there are not many of them, which changes what winning means: a high share of a small number rather than a slice of a big one. That is the shape of the market you are in.

Value is not the same as volume. A plumbing search here costs an advertiser under two pounds. A locksmith search costs around £17. Nobody pays several times more for a visitor unless the job at the end is worth several times more, so the size of a market and the value of it are two different questions.

If you travel, the nearest markets are Ashton-under-Lyne at under three kilometres, Hyde at under three kilometres, Audenshaw at under three kilometres. Each is its own search: being found in Dukinfield does not put you in front of anybody there, which is why they have their own pages rather than a line on this one.

That said, the demand is not spread evenly across them. One trade carries far more of it than the rest, so breadth here is a long tail behind a single strong term rather than an even split.
