FAQ
Questions from Bedford business owners
Can't see yours? Use the contact form below and we'll come back to you the same day.
How long does it take to rank in Bedford?
For most single-location businesses in Bedford you should see movement within four to eight weeks and a stable top-three position for your main searches within three to six months. Competitive niches in the city centre take longer. Your free audit gives you a realistic estimate for your trade before you spend anything.
Do you cover Biddenham, Castle, De Parys?
Yes. We cover the whole of Bedford including Biddenham, Castle, De Parys, Great Denham, Harpur, Queens Park, Brickhill, Clapham, and everything in MK40, MK41, MK44. Nearby towns such as Kempston, Sandy, Flitwick have their own pages.
What does it cost?
In the East of England, packages start at £365 a month ex VAT and a one-off audit is £365. The price card above shows the figures for Bedford, and the first audit is free.
Do you guarantee map-pack rankings?
No, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Google doesn't sell map-pack positions. What we do guarantee is the work itself: every task in your plan is listed, priced and reported on, and there's no minimum term after the first three months.
Can you help if my Google Business Profile is suspended?
Yes. Suspension recovery is one of the services we're asked for most. We find the cause (usually a category, address or name issue), fix it, and submit the reinstatement with the evidence Google asks for. Most cases are back within one to three weeks.
