The problem

You're brilliant at the job. Google just can't find you.

Buried below your rivals

A half-finished profile lets newer, less-skilled firms outrank you and take the calls that should be yours.

The phone's gone quiet

Word-of-mouth dried up and you're paying lead sites that sell the same job to five competitors at once.

No time for "marketing"

You're on the tools all day. Posts, reviews and SEO are the last thing you want at 8pm.

The process

Three steps. Then you keep working.

Done-for-you, start to finish. You stay on the tools; we handle Google.

Why it works

Why local trades win on Google.

It isn't luck or budget. It's how local search actually works.

A

People search local first

Nearly half of all Google searches have local intent, and "near me" keeps climbing. Homeowners check the map before anywhere else.

B

Your profile is the #1 factor

A complete, active, well-reviewed profile is the single biggest thing deciding the top 3, above having a big website.

C

Small and local is the edge

A sole trader with a sharp profile and real reviews can outrank a national firm in their own town. Here, being local wins.

The founder

Hi, I'm Caleb. I started TradeRank for the trades I grew up around.

I'm Caleb Boddington, and I run TradeRank from home in Cobham, Surrey. After finishing my degree in business and marketing, I kept noticing the same frustrating thing. The electricians, plumbers and builders my family actually trusted were brilliant on the tools, but almost invisible on Google.

They were losing real work to bigger, glossier firms with worse workmanship, for one reason only. Those firms showed up first when people searched, and they didn't. The gap was never skill. It was simply being found.

So I pointed everything I had learned about marketing at that one problem: getting honest, local tradespeople to the top of the map, where the jobs actually are. That is all TradeRank does, and I handle every account personally. No call centre, no outsourcing. When you work with TradeRank, you work with me.

Questions

The things trades ask us.

Do I need a website?

No. Your Google Business Profile is separate from a website and is where most local enquiries actually start. We make that work hard for you first; a website is a bonus, not a requirement.

How quickly will I see results?

Profile setup is done within 7 days. Google typically rewards an optimised, active profile with ranking improvements within 4 to 8 weeks. Reviews and weekly activity compound the effect over time.

Am I tied into a contract?

No. It's month-to-month and you can cancel anytime. We'd rather keep you because it works than lock you in.

Is this just paid Google ads?

No. This is organic local SEO with no ongoing ad spend. You rank in the free map results, which is exactly where most homeowners look first.

What if I already have a profile?

Even better. We audit what's there, fix what's holding you back and build on your existing reviews and history.
