No published price, because it depends on your market rather than on us. In somewhere the size of Luton what moves it most is the review gap to the current top three, since the businesses holding those places have had years to build one. You pay nothing until it has paid for itself.

Luton is not one market. It is a set of towns each searched by its own name, and enough of them carry real demand that the difference matters.

Almost all of them are very small businesses, which changes what winning looks like. This page covers the common ground; the pages below cover what differs.

We get you found on the map: profile, reviews, pages and listings, all pointing the same way.

The plan

What we would do across Luton

It is rarely one big thing. It is several small ones, and they compound.

Decide the order you build pages inDemand in Luton is spread across a lot of trades rather than concentrated in one. That makes the order you build in matter more than usual: a page each for the two or three you actually want the work from, before anything else, rather than one page that gestures at all of them.

Earn the clicks before you buy themClicks here are expensive relative to most places we cover, which usually means the jobs behind them are worth having. It also means ads are an unforgiving way to start. We would get the map results and the pages right first, so that when you do pay for a click you are not paying for one you could have had free.

Claim and finish the Google Business ProfileEverything in the map pack comes from the profile rather than from your website, and most profiles are half filled in. Categories, service areas, opening hours, services priced or at least listed. In Luton that alone moves businesses that have never touched it.

Get reviews that name the job and the placeThe wording does more work than the count. Ask on the day, and ask people to name the town and the job, because "sorted our boiler in Luton" beats "great service" twice over: Google reads those words, and so does the next person choosing.

Make your name, address and number identical everywhereIn a market the size of Luton, this is what quietly decides ties between businesses Google otherwise rates the same. Every directory, every listing, the same three lines, down to whether you wrote "street" or "st".

The market

The Luton market

The biggest sectors here are construction with around 1,450 businesses, then transport and storage and retail. That mix decides who is bidding against you and what a click ends up costing.

Hardly anybody types the district name on its own. They search the town they are standing in, and across somewhere this large that is a lot of separate searches rather than one, which is why the pages below exist.

The numbers also show about 150 searches a month from businesses shopping for this service. Set against how much trade demand Luton carries, that is a market where plenty are still not looking, which is the gap worth standing in.

Construction is 16 per cent of the businesses here, which is high. If you are a trade, that is your competition and it is crowded. If you are not, the local search results are less contested than the headline count suggests, because most of those businesses are chasing different words to you.

If your customers are spread across Luton rather than sitting in one town, start here. At this level of demand the district view is the one that pays; if you only serve one town, its own page is the better fit.

Timing

When the work comes in around Luton

Roofing work in Luton runs hardest in September and quietest in May, and the busy month carries five times as many searches as the quiet one. In a market this size that swing is a lot of enquiries to be absent for.

Which makes the quiet part of the year the part that matters. The work takes weeks to show, so what you build while nobody is looking is what is standing when September comes round.

The arrangement

How it works

We start with a free look at the Luton map results for what you do: where you sit now, who holds the top three, and what would have to change for you to be one of them. It covers where the demand actually sits across Luton, which of these towns is worth a page of its own, and which of the many trades searched here are worth building for first. You keep it either way, and if it is not worth doing we say so.

Nothing to pay until the work is bringing you enquiries and has covered its own cost. One business per trade per town across Luton. In a district carrying this much search that leaves real room, because a business in one town and a competitor in another are both possible; two in the same place are not. Rolling, and you stop whenever you like.
