The problem
Tired of SEO agencies that don't understand Sunderland?
Rankings, but no calls
Many agencies chase national blog traffic. Estate Agents in Sunderland need people close by searching "letting agents", not readers from the other end of the country.
Losing "near me" searches
Portals like Rightmove and Zoopla own most property searches, so agents must win on valuation and agent-brand searches.
Messy listings and schema
Different addresses or phone numbers on Google, Rightmove and old directories confuse Google and push your estate agency down the map in Millfield.
Rising cost per lead
Review counts across Google and allAgents strongly influence which agent sellers call for a valuation. Paying per click for every Sunderland lead gets expensive fast.
How we work
How we do local SEO for estate agents.
Google Business Profile optimisation
Google ranks map results on relevance, distance and prominence. We fix your estate agency's profile so it is eligible to rank across Sunderland.
- Primary category set to “Real estate agency”, with tested secondary categories
- Name, address and phone made identical everywhere
- Duplicate or unclaimed listings found and merged
- Services, photos and weekly posts aimed at Washington and Doxford Park
- LocalBusiness schema with exact coordinates on your site
If Google sees conflicting details, it drops the listing from the 3-pack rather than risk showing wrong information.
