No published price; it depends on your market. What moves it in Norwich: how many businesses compete for what you do, how much has to be built or fixed on the site, and how far off page one you start. The spread between what a click is worth in different trades here is the clearest signal of which of those matters most for you. You pay nothing until it has paid for itself.

Norwich 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.

So we work town by town, and trade by trade within them. This page covers the common ground; the pages below cover what differs.

We get you found in search results: profile, reviews, pages and listings, all pointing the same way.

The plan

What we would do across Norwich

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

Decide the order you build pages inDemand in Norwich 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.

Either route works, so pick on urgencyAds and the slower work are both reasonable starting points in Norwich, which is not true everywhere. Which one we pick comes down to how quickly you need the phone to ring against how long you can wait for something that keeps working after you stop paying.

Give every service its own pageNobody searches for "our services", and with this many trades searched separately here, a combined page loses every one of them. One page per thing you sell, each written as though it were the only thing you did. In Norwich that means a plumber, a roofer, a locksmith before anything else.

Fix what the site is quietly doing wrongPages that take four seconds to load, headings that describe nothing, three URLs serving the same content. None of it is visible to you and all of it is visible to Google, and it caps how far the writing can carry you.

Earn links from places that are actually localIn a market the size of Norwich this is the part competitors find hardest to copy, and the part that still separates the top three once everyone has fixed the obvious things. A supplier, a trade body, the local paper, the club you sponsor.

The market

The Norwich market

The biggest sectors here are retail with around 875 businesses, then professional and technical services and hospitality and food. 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.

Something else shows up in the numbers. Roughly 650 searches a month here are businesses hunting for someone to do this work for them, and in a market this big that is a crowd of owners who have already decided being found is worth paying for.

Construction is only 7.7 per cent of the businesses here, which is low for a UK district. Trades have less local competition than usual; everybody else has more, because the district's businesses are concentrated in offices and shops rather than vans.

If your customers are spread across Norwich 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 Norwich is busiest

Demand here is not flat across the year. Five of the eleven trades we track in Norwich peak in September, which is when the searches are there to be won and also when everyone else is bidding for them.

The work takes weeks to show, so starting in September is starting too late. Build through the quiet months and you are already in position when it comes round.

The arrangement

How it works

First, a free analysis of the Norwich search results for what you sell: what you rank for now, what you could rank for, and how much of the gap is work on your own site rather than anything outside it. It covers where the demand actually sits across Norwich, 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 Norwich. 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.
