What actually works in Newcastle upon Tyne

For that kind of buyer the work shifts away from the map pack and towards substance: capability pages that are specific rather than general, named people with real roles, accreditations that can be checked, and case detail with dates and figures. A shortlist is drawn up from those pages, and most local sites give a buyer nothing to put on one.

Newcastle’s demand comes from a genuinely large software and technology sector, offshore and subsea engineering on the Tyne, two universities, a major health and life-sciences cluster, financial and professional services, and the retail and hospitality serving a conurbation of 800,000. The B2B half of that is a considered purchase decided over weeks rather than a phone call from a van, so the map pack matters less than it does in a trades town and the pages that win are the ones answering the questions asked before a shortlist exists.

What you get, and what it costs

Growth blocks from £250 a month, spent on whatever moves the needle rather than a fixed checklist. No percentage of ad spend, no management fee and no minimum term — if it stops being worth it, you stop.

• The Google Business Profile done properly first, because for most local searches the map sits above everything a website can win.
• A page for each service you genuinely offer, so every search has somewhere of its own to land instead of competing with the homepage.
• The technical work that decides whether Google can read the site at all — speed, structure, internal links, and the markup that puts you in the right results.
• Content written around the questions your customers actually ask, not a keyword list.
• Monthly reporting of what changed and what it earned, including the phone calls, which is where most local enquiries arrive and almost nobody counts them.
