How Google Maps Rankings Work for Local Businesses

When someone searches "plumber near me" or "electrician Earl Shilton", Google shows a map with 3 businesses. These top 3 positions receive the vast majority of clicks and calls. Everything below is hidden and rarely seen.

Google decides which 3 businesses to show based on relevance, distance, and prominence. We optimise all three factors so your trade business consistently appears in those top positions across Earl Shilton, Hinckley, Barwell, and your entire service area.

Rank Maps: See Exactly Where You Stand

We use rank maps to track your Google Maps position at dozens of points across your service area. Green means you're in the top 3 - visible to customers. Red means you're invisible. Our goal is expanding that green coverage across every area you serve.

We run rank maps every two weeks so you can see your progress in real time. No guessing, no vague promises - just clear visual data showing your rankings improving.

Most tradesmen see their first top 3 positions within 6-8 weeks. Full coverage of your service area typically takes 3-6 months depending on competition.

Rankings can fluctuate day to day, which is why we track at two-week intervals for meaningful trends rather than reacting to daily noise.
