When somebody in Andover needs what you sell, they search, look at the first few results, and ring one. Most never scroll past the third.

If you are not in those few you never find out it happened. You cannot see the customers you did not get.

We get you found on the map: your Google Business Profile, your reviews, your pages and your listings, all pointing the same way. Where a town searches for as many different jobs as this one does, that consistency is what stops you ranking for none of them.

The plan

What we would do in Andover

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

Decide the order you build pages inDemand in Andover 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.

Ads are cheap here, so run them alongsideClicks in Andover sit in the cheaper quarter of everywhere we cover, so ads are an inexpensive way to have something working while the slower job matures. The auction is not empty, so treat them as a supplement rather than the whole plan.

Set your area across the boundary, not up to itAndover sits where more than one council meets. Whitchurch, under ten kilometres away, is Basingstoke and Deane, and Tidworth, about 14 kilometres away, is Wiltshire. Very little else nearby puts that many authorities within reach of one business, which means the area you can realistically serve is wider than your postcode suggests. We set your service area to match where you actually go, not where the boundary happens to fall.

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 Andover 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 Andover" beats "great service" twice over: Google reads those words, and so does the next person choosing.

Make your name, address and number identical everywhereIt is the dullest item on any list and the one most often quietly wrong. Every directory and every listing needs the same three lines, because in the map results this is what decides whether Google thinks you are one business or three.

The market

What Andover is worth

The searches here are real and steady, and somebody is picking them up today. That is the market you are competing in.

Value and volume are not the same thing. An advertiser here pays over one pound for a tree surgery search and over twelve pounds for a locksmith one, and across as many trades as this town searches for that spread is the map of where the money actually is. Nobody pays several times more for a visitor unless the job at the end is worth several times more.

Around 50 searches a month in Andover come from businesses after this service. That is a steady trickle rather than a rush, so the field is moving, slowly, and there is still room near the front.

If you travel, the nearest markets are Whitchurch at under ten kilometres, Tidworth at about 14 kilometres, Overton at about 15 kilometres. Each is its own search: being found in Andover does not put you in front of anybody there, which is why they have their own pages rather than a line on this one.

It is not one trade either. Across this many separate trades being searched by name, the habit here is clearly local rather than people defaulting to the nearest big town.

Timing

When the work comes in around Andover

Search for roofing in Andover peaks in November and bottoms out in June, with roughly ten times as much volume at the top of the year as at the bottom. Every trade has its own shape here, and that one is the sharpest.

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 November comes round.

The arrangement

How it works

We start with a free look at the Andover 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 costs nothing, there is nothing to sign, and you keep it whether or not we end up working together.

Nothing to pay until the work is bringing you enquiries and has covered its own cost. One business per trade in Andover, and that covers both sides of the boundary from here, because it is one market to you even though it is two councils. It is rolling, and you can stop whenever you want.
