The plan

What we would do in Teignmouth

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

01
Cover the few trades that carry this marketA handful of trades carry most of what gets searched in Teignmouth, with plumbing at the front of them on about 110 searches a month. That is a short enough list to cover properly, which is not true of every place, and it means the whole job here is finite.
02
Ads are worth running early hereAds are worth running here early. Clicks in Teignmouth are cheap by the standards of the places we cover and the auction is genuinely quiet, which means paid search can be earning while the slower work matures.
03
Set your area across the boundary, not up to itTeignmouth sits where more than one council meets. Torquay, under eight kilometres away, is Torbay, and Exmouth, under eleven kilometres away, is East Devon. 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.
04
Give every service its own pageOne page per thing you sell, because nobody searches for "our services". A page that tries to cover everything ranks for nothing in particular. In Teignmouth that means a plumber, a builder, an electrician before anything else.
05
Fix what the site is quietly doing wrongMost sites around Teignmouth have none of this dealt with, which makes it a rare case where the dull work alone can move you up. Slow pages, headings that describe nothing, several URLs quietly serving the same content.
06
Earn links from places that are actually localThere are only so many of these in a place the size of Teignmouth, which makes them worth having and quick to exhaust, so we start with the ones that will actually answer. A supplier, a trade body, the local paper, whatever you sponsor.
The market

What Teignmouth 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 decorating search here costs an advertiser over one pound. A roofing search costs under six pounds. 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 Dawlish at under five kilometres, Kingsteignton at under seven kilometres, Torquay at under eight kilometres. Each is its own search: being found in Teignmouth 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, which tells you the habit here is local rather than people defaulting to the nearest big town for everything.

Timing

When the work comes in around Teignmouth

Plumbing is the most seasonal work we can measure in Teignmouth: busiest in October, slowest in May, two and a half times as many searches at the peak. Where the totals are modest to begin with, being visible in the right month does more than anything else.

So the quiet months are the cheap ones to win. Fewer businesses compete for plumbing searches out of season, and ground taken then is still yours when October arrives.

The arrangement

How it works

First, a free analysis of the Teignmouth 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 is a short one, because this is not a complicated market: you will know inside a page or two where you stand and what is in the way. You keep it whatever you decide to do next.

Nothing to pay until it has paid for itself, and in a market as lightly fought as this one that usually does not take long. One business per trade in Teignmouth, and that covers both sides of the boundary from here, because it is one market to you even though it is two councils. Rolling, cancel whenever.
