FAQ

Q: How long to see results?

A: Most clients see improvements within 2–4 weeks, especially with Google Business Profile optimisations.
For low-competition niches (difficulty under 20), you can often move into the top map positions within 1–3 months, depending on your area and competitors.
I always give you a clear timeline based on your actual difficulty score.

Q: Is there a contract?

A: No. Everything is month-to-month, and you can cancel anytime.
My goal is to get you results so you stay because it works — not because you’re tied in.
Most clients stay because they’re getting more calls and bookings.

Q: Do I need a website or can you work with what I already have?

A: I can work with either. If you already have a website, I’ll optimise it.
If you don’t, or your site needs modernising, I can build a clean, fast, SEO-friendly website for you.
Your Google Business Profile and website work together to help you rank, but many trades and small businesses start with just a basic site

Q: What exactly do you do each month?

A: Each month I handle everything needed to keep your business ranking higher:

Google Business posts

Review replies

Ongoing profile improvements

Website updates

New content (where needed)

Photo optimisation

Local citations

Competitor checks

Monthly visibility summary

You don’t need to do anything — just let me know if you have new photos or offers.

Local Business. Local Results.

No Agency Nonsense

I'm Jon, founder of

Top of the Search

based right here in Swansea and helping local businesses get found on Google.

I’ve spent years working closely with small businesses — trades, takeaways, beauty rooms, cafes, home services, independent shops and I kept hearing the same thing over and over:

“We’re good at what we do, but no one can find us online.”

They didn’t have time to learn SEO, they couldn’t afford big agencies, and most “marketing people” overcharged and under-delivered.

I started out helping a few businesses in Devon, building websites, fixing their Google listings and getting them into the map pack. Once they started getting calls and bookings, word spread and I realised most local businesses don’t need a full agency… they just need someone who understands how ranking on Google actually works.

After moving to Swansea, I decided to build Top of the Search as a proper local service, affordable, practical and results driven. No retainers, no jargon, no pointless services. Just the stuff that gets you found by people already searching.

Now I focus on helping businesses show up on Google, get more calls, and grow without wasting money on ads.

Personal Story

Why businesses work with me

• I’m local — not a faceless agency

• I focus on results, not fluff or jargon

• Small businesses don’t need £1,000 retainers

• I use tools and AI to keep costs down and performance high

• You speak to me — not a sales rep or call centre

I work with real people — trades, family-run businesses, start-ups, mobile services, independents — not corporations.
If you want more calls, bookings or walk-ins, I’ll get you found. If you want agency waffle, I’m not your guy.
