Built specifically for UK trades and local businesses
Working Stoke-on-Trent as a handyman
Most handymans working Stoke-on-Trent cover Burslem, Longton, and a bit of Stafford. The customers in those areas Google for what they need before they call anyone, and Google usually shows them three options. We get you into those three.
For handymans working Stoke-on-Trent, the busy postcodes are usually ST, with steady call volume from Longton, Hanley and Stoke. Typical handyman jobs in Stoke-on-Trent: shelving and fixtures, general repairs.
What We Do
Handymans in Stoke-on-Trent get the same diagnosis from us when they ask why their phone has slowed down. The handyman listings ranking above them in Stoke-on-Trent have more reviews, fresher photos, and weekly Google profile posts. Honest list of what is included so you can compare: website (built and hosted), Google Business Profile (set up and run weekly), review automation, SEO work, missed-call text-back, monthly report. Nothing hidden.
Handymans in Stoke-on-Trent who join the package go through the same handyman-specific onboarding: we collect handyman business details, photos, and existing reviews on day one. We build the handyman site over the following week and start the handyman SEO and Google profile work in week two.
The work coming through the door for handymans is mostly shelving and fixtures, general repairs, and door hanging. Most handymans are accredited with TrustMark, Checkatrade, and that is one of the things handyman customers check before they call.
Why Handymans Lose Calls Around Here
For handymans working Stoke-on-Trent, the picture looks like this. Most handymans in Stoke-on-Trent are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. If you ask the average local business owner what their marketing is, the answer is usually 'word of mouth'. Word of mouth is great. It is also slow, unpredictable, and dries up the moment your best customers move house. Google is the bit that backs it up.
Real Clients We Already Run
Here is what we tell handymans working Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding areas when they ask the obvious question. The Google ranking for handyman searches in Stoke-on-Trent is decided by the things most handymans never touch. The first paying client signed up in March. The seventh signed up in early April. We are growing slowly because every client gets the same level of attention, and that ceiling moves up as we add more capacity.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Local SEO is the bulk of what we do. Real keyword research using DataForSEO, on-page optimisation for the queries that bring calls, Google profile management every week, and ranking checks every Monday. No hand-waving, no monthly PDF that says 'progressing well'.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Costs nothing extra to run, included in the monthly price. Most clients save the cost of the whole package within the first fortnight from this single feature.
Review Automation
Reviews show up in two places that matter: on your Google Business Profile (where new prospects see them) and as a ranking signal (Google rewards businesses with steady, recent review flow). We feed both at the same time.
What It Costs
We do not believe in hiding prices, so here they are: £199 setup and £199 a month. Less than £6.70 a day. The maths usually works out the same way: One job from Google pays for the month.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
Two numbers, no surprises. £199 for the website itself (built and hosted by us, yours to keep). £199 a month after that for the management. Three months minimum.
What do you actually do every month?
Plain English: we make your business show up first when people Google for what you do nearby, we make sure no calls get lost when you cannot answer, and we show you exactly what changed every month.
Do I need to do anything technical?
None at all. We are the team you would hire to handle the technical side of marketing, except cheaper, and run by one person who actually replies. You do not touch any settings, ever.
What if I already have a website?
If you have already got a website, we will migrate it over and keep your domain. Your old content stays, your pages stay, your URLs stay. Nothing breaks. We just make it faster and rebuild the bits that are not working.
How long until I see results?
Some things move quickly (Google profile improvements, missed-call recovery, more reviews) and some things take longer (search rankings, traffic). Most of our clients see noticeable improvement in the first month and bigger movement by month three.
Can I cancel?
Quick version: three months minimum, then cancel whenever you like by text. The website stays with you. No exit fees, no penalties, no admin charges.
