Swansea: Why Google Decides Who Gets the Calls
The recruitment-agency customers in Swansea are split roughly in half between long-term residents who already have someone they trust and newer residents (or younger ones) who Google for everything. The newer half is who you want, and Google is the only way to reach them.
Looking at our existing recruitment-agencies, the calls in Swansea come overwhelmingly from Uplands, West Cross and the catchment around Pontardawe. The recruitment-agency jobs in Swansea are usually finding skilled candidates or high staff turnover, and the customer base is shaped by the property mix in those neighbourhoods.
How Local SEO Actually Works for You
Across the recruitment-agencies we have spoken to in Swansea, the same pattern keeps coming up. The recruitment-agencies ranking in the top three of Google Maps for Swansea get most of the calls. We don't sell you a thing and run. We run the entire online side of your business: Google listing, website, reviews, the lot. You get a monthly report and a phone number to text if anything is broken.
For recruitment-agencies in Swansea, the version of this we run looks like weekly Google profile updates with photos from real recruitment-agency jobs, four blog posts a month written for the searches recruitment-agencies customers actually use, and a monthly performance report you can read on a phone.
If you are a recruitment-agency, you already know the bread and butter: speed of hire and finding skilled candidates, with industry-specific recruitment when the season turns. Small and medium businesses needing staff, job seekers, HR departments needing temporary cover, which means recruitment-agencies need to be findable when those exact searches happen.
What Most Local Owners Get Wrong
Recruitment Agencies in Swansea are competing with 50-100 other listings for the same calls. Here is what separates the busy recruitment-agencies from the ones whose phones have gone quiet. The thing nobody tells you when you start a trade is that being good at the work is about a third of the battle. The other two thirds are getting found and not letting calls go to voicemail. We help with both.
Real Clients We Already Run
For recruitment-agencies working Swansea (especially around Killay and Morriston), this is the unflattering bit nobody warns recruitment-agency owners about. Most recruitment-agencies in Swansea are invisible for the urgent searches that bring jobs. The trades on our list right now have a combined 700+ reviews on Google between them. That is the kind of business we work with: established, well-reviewed, but not yet visible enough on Google. We bridge that last gap.
Next Step: A Free Audit
Honest framing: the audit is free because it costs us about 30 minutes of automated checks plus 10 minutes of a real human looking at the results. We do that because most owners don't trust marketing pitches anymore (rightly), and a real audit is the only way to start a useful conversation.
The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO work includes weekly Google Business Profile posts, a monthly fresh photo upload, citation consistency checks across the 30 directories Google watches, on-page optimisation tweaks based on what is ranking, and weekly position tracking. No copy-paste reports.
Missed-Call Text-Back
If you cannot answer the phone (because you are on a job), the system automatically texts the caller back within seconds. The reply reads something like 'Hi, can't pick up right now, on a job. What do you need? I'll be back to you within the hour.'. About a third of those texts turn into actual jobs that would otherwise have been lost.
Review Automation
The reviews bit is fully automated: a text goes out after each job with a direct link to your Google review page. Customers tap once and they are typing the review. About one in three actually leaves one, which is roughly five times the industry average.

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?
We sort your Google Business Profile so it actually appears when locals search. We build you a website that loads fast on a phone. We get reviews coming in automatically after every job. We text customers back when you miss a call. And we send you a monthly report that shows what changed.
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.
