Telford: Why Google Decides Who Gets the Calls
Ironbridge Gorge (birthplace of the Industrial Revolution), New Town, The Wrekin. For mechanics that means a steady flow of work, but also a steady flow of competition. Shropshire climate; moderate rainfall, prone to frost in the Severn Gorge, sheltered inland position. The trades that are visible on Google get the lion's share of the local market.
In Telford, the catchment for mechanics includes Dawley, Ketley, Madeley, and the wider TF area. Calls for brake repairs and mot failures make up the bulk of what comes through the door.
How Local SEO Actually Works for You
For mechanics working Telford, the picture looks like this. Most mechanics in Telford are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. Not a DIY platform. Not a course. Not a coaching call. We do all of it for you. Website, Google profile, reviews, SEO, missed-call recovery, monthly report. Done.
For mechanics in Telford, the version of this we run looks like weekly Google profile updates with photos from real mechanic jobs, four blog posts a month written for the searches mechanics customers actually use, and a monthly performance report you can read on a phone.
If you are a mechanic, you already know the bread and butter: brake repairs and mot failures, with engine diagnostics when the season turns. Car owners needing MOTs, servicing, and repairs outside of dealer networks, which means mechanics need to be findable when those exact searches happen.
What Most Local Owners Get Wrong
Mechanics in Telford are competing with 50-100 other listings for the same calls. Here is what separates the busy mechanics from the ones whose phones have gone quiet. The honest truth: most local businesses lose more work to bad Google visibility than to bad service. Your skill is fine. Your work is fine. Your prices are fine. Your problem is that Google can't find you.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Our SEO work is opinionated. We do not chase every algorithm update. We focus on the things that have moved local rankings for the last decade: relevance to the search term, prominence (reviews and citations), and proximity to the searcher. Everything else is noise.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Without this, missed calls are just gone. Voicemail catches almost nothing in 2026 (most people do not leave them anymore). The text-back is the only way to recover that traffic.
Review Automation
Reviews come in on autopilot. We set up a system that asks your customers right after the job, while they are still happy. About a third leave a review. Over a year that is the difference between 8 reviews and 60.
What It Costs
Pricing in two lines: £199 once, then £199 every month. The website is yours to keep. The minimum is three months. After that, leave whenever, no notice period.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
Same price for every client. £199 setup, £199 a month. We do not haggle, we do not run promotions, and we do not have a 'special deal this week'. The price you see is what you pay.
What do you actually do every month?
Specifically: build and host your website, run your Google Business Profile weekly, set up review automation, set up missed-call text-back, write four blog posts a month, send a monthly report. That is the full list.
Do I need to do anything technical?
If you can text us a logo and a few photos of your work, you have done your bit. Everything else, including the boring technical stuff like SSL certificates and search console setup, is on us.
What if I already have a website?
We work with what you have got. If your current website is broken or slow, we rebuild it. If it is fine, we keep it and just sort out the SEO and Google profile. Your domain stays the same either way.
How long until I see results?
Honest answer: anyone who guarantees specific numbers is lying to you. We can guarantee the work gets done properly. The missed-call text-back system pays for itself the first time you save a job. SEO results take longer, usually three to six months for meaningful movement.
Can I cancel?
After three months you can cancel any time, no notice period, no exit fees. The website is yours to keep. We transfer the domain and the site to whoever you want.
