FAQ
Questions from Gateshead 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 Gateshead?
For most single-location businesses in Gateshead 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 Gateshead Quayside, Gateshead Town, Bensham?
Yes. We cover the whole of Gateshead including Gateshead Quayside, Gateshead Town, Bensham, Low Fell, Springwell, Wrekenton, Beacon Lough, Felling, and everything in NE8, NE9, NE10, NE11, NE17, NE39 and the other NE districts. Nearby towns such as Newcastle, Whickham, Birtley have their own pages.
What does it cost?
In the North East, packages start at £320 a month ex VAT and a one-off audit is £320. The price card above shows the figures for Gateshead, 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.
