Frequently Asked Questions

How often do you check rankings?
We run rank maps every two weeks. More frequent checking creates noise from daily fluctuations. Less frequent misses important trends. Two weeks gives us meaningful data without overreacting to temporary changes.
What percentage of green coverage should I expect?
We target 30-40% green coverage as the initial milestone. For most tradesmen in areas like Earl Shilton and Hinckley, this is achievable within 2-3 months with proper optimisation.
Who are my main competitors?
Your competitors are whoever currently ranks in the top 3 for your primary service keyword in your area. These might not be the businesses you think of as competitors - they're whoever Google considers most relevant.
What if my competitors have a huge head start?
Even established competitors usually have significant optimisation gaps. The systematic approach often reveals they've been coasting on basic presence rather than proper optimisation. Addressing fundamentals can close the gap faster than you'd expect.
How many pages will I need?
Depends on your GBP setup. Most tradesmen need 20-30 pages covering all their categories and services. The gap analysis tells you exactly what's required before any work begins.
Do I need Core 30 for my business?
Most tradesmen in areas like Earl Shilton and Hinckley won't need it - basic optimisation works for 70-80% of businesses. We only recommend Core 30 when rank map data shows it's necessary. We never upsell work you don't need.
