Working Derby as an estate-agent
Derby's housing is victorian terraces, inter-war semis, post-war estates, and modern developments near the city centre, which means the typical jobs for estate-agents are predictable and repeat. The owners who get the call-outs are the ones whose listing turns up first when somebody in Normanton or Allestree types the trade name into Google.
Estate Agents working Derby have a slightly different mix than estate-agents elsewhere because of the neighbourhoods involved. Most Derby estate-agent calls come from Allestree, Chaddesden, Spondon and the corridor toward Burton upon Trent.
What We Do
Estate Agents in Derby get the same diagnosis from us when they ask why their phone has slowed down. The estate-agent listings ranking above them in Derby have more reviews, fresher photos, and weekly Google profile posts. We replace four or five things you would normally pay separately for: web designer, SEO agency, social media person, review-request app, missed-call system. One package, one price, one person to talk to.
Estate Agents in Derby typically have between 150-300 direct competitors fighting for the same Google ranking. We get your estate-agent listing into the top three by working on the things Google's local algorithm rewards: relevance, prominence, and citation consistency.
What customers Google when they need an estate-agent: variations of accurate property valuations, hidden fees, and selling speed. The estate-agents that target those exact phrases on their Google profile are the ones whose phones do not stop ringing.
Why Estate Agents Lose Calls Around Here
Estate Agents in Derby are competing with 150-300 other listings for the same calls. Here is what separates the busy estate-agents from the ones whose phones have gone quiet. Most owners we speak to have tried something. A website built by a friend. A Yell listing. A few hundred quid on Facebook ads. None of it worked because none of it fixed the actual problem: Google doesn't know they exist.
Real Clients We Already Run
When we look at estate-agents in Derby who have gone quiet, the cause is almost always the same one. Their Google Business Profile is half-empty and they are not ranking for the estate-agent keywords Derby customers actually use. What we have instead of fancy case studies: seven real businesses paying us monthly. Plumbers in three different towns. Heating engineers in two more. A paving firm. A bathroom fitter. All English-speaking owners we text directly.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
We do the local SEO work weekly: keyword tracking for the searches that actually convert, Google Business Profile updates with fresh photos and posts, schema markup on every page of your site, and a monthly ranking report so you can see exactly what moved.
Missed-Call Text-Back
The text that goes out is editable so you can change the tone if you want. We start with one we have tested across our existing trades clients and tweak from there. The default reply pulls about 30-40% engagement.
Review Automation
Review automation means you never have to ask 'mind leaving a review?' in person again. The system does it for you, by text, the same day. Customers who would have forgotten get reminded. Your Google profile fills up.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
It is £299 setup, which covers your website, then £449 a month for the ongoing management. Less than £15 a day. You can cancel after three months.
What do you actually do every month?
Six things every month: Google profile updates, fresh website content, automated review requests, missed-call recovery, ranking checks, and a monthly report. No add-ons, no upsells, no surprise charges.
Do I need to do anything technical?
Not at all. We build, host, and run everything. If you can send a text message, you can use this service. We send you a monthly report and message you if we need anything from your end.
What if I already have a website?
Yes, that is normal. Most of our clients had a previous site (often built by an agency or a friend that did not work out). We bring it across, keep your domain, and rebuild whatever needs rebuilding.
How long until I see results?
Realistically: small wins from week one (more missed calls recovered, a few more reviews). Medium wins by month one (Google profile starting to climb). Bigger wins by month three (organic search rankings improving). Anyone promising overnight results is selling something.
Can I cancel?
You can cancel after the third month. No 30-day notice, no exit charge. The website is yours to keep. We just stop the management work.
