Built specifically for UK trades and local businesses
Reading: Why Google Decides Who Gets the Calls
Reading's letting-agents often cover not just the city centre but the postcodes around it (RG) and outlying towns like Henley-on-Thames. Customers searching from those areas need to see your listing first. We make sure they do.
Letting Agents working Reading typically cover Caversham, Earley, Shinfield, plus outlying areas like Bracknell. The pattern keeps letting-agent demand for property maintenance management steady across most of Reading through the year.
How Local SEO Actually Works for You
For letting-agents covering Reading, the part of this most owners miss is the local search angle. The letting-agent customers in Reading Google your trade plus a neighbourhood name, and only the top three results get the call. What you actually get: a real website (not a template), a properly run Google profile, an automated review system, missed-call text-back, four blog posts a month, and a monthly report. All in. No upsells, no add-ons, no tiered features hidden behind a 'contact sales' button.
Letting Agents in Reading typically have between 100-200 direct competitors fighting for the same Google ranking. We get your letting-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 a letting-agent: variations of property maintenance management, void periods, and rent collection. The letting-agents that target those exact phrases on their Google profile are the ones whose phones do not stop ringing.
What Most Local Owners Get Wrong
For letting-agents working Reading (especially around Shinfield and Tilehurst), this is the unflattering bit nobody warns letting-agent owners about. Most letting-agents in Reading are invisible for the urgent searches that bring jobs. It's not the market. It's not the economy. It's not your prices. The phone is quiet because the people who used to find you in the Yellow Pages now search Google, and Google doesn't show your business. That's the entire problem.
Real Clients We Already Run
For letting-agents working Reading (especially around Shinfield and Tilehurst), this is the unflattering bit nobody warns letting-agent owners about. Most letting-agents in Reading are invisible for the urgent searches that bring jobs. 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.

If you're already convinced, the get-started button skips the audit and takes you straight to onboarding. If you're not, take the audit first. Either way is fine.
The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
We track every keyword you should be ranking for and check positions weekly. When something drops, we fix it that week, not next month. The monthly report shows every keyword and the change versus last month, in plain English.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Set-up takes us about 20 minutes. We hook your business number into the system, write the auto-reply text in your tone of voice (or copy yours if you have one), and turn it on. From that moment forward, every missed call gets a text reply within ten seconds.
Review Automation
Most owners undercount how much reviews matter for ranking. Every additional review is a small boost to your local pack position, especially when the review mentions the service or area. The automation makes that compound silently in the background.
What It Costs
We are not the cheapest and we are definitely not the most expensive. £199 for the site, £199 a month for the rest. Less than £6.70 a day. The maths usually works out as: One job from Google pays for the month.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
Standard price is £199 once and £199 every month after. The website is included in the setup fee and you own it forever. Three months minimum, then rolling.
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.
