Find out where you actually rank across Colchester

01. The problem

Checking your own ranking tells you nothing

Search results depend on where the person searching is standing. Two people can type the same thing from opposite sides of Colchester and get different lists.

So the position you see when you look yourself up is close to worthless. You're standing at your own address, on your own connection, and the result is flattering.

02. What it checks

441 points, ten miles in every direction

Local Radar runs your chosen search term from 441 separate points on a grid, a mile apart, covering ten miles in every direction from your business. Each point asks the question a customer standing there would ask, and records where you came.

That's Colchester and a good way past it. Wivenhoe, Tiptree, West Mersea, Coggeshall.

03. What comes back

A picture, a number, and a record

  • A map

    Green where you show up near the top, red where you don't appear at all. Most people find the shape of it surprising, because visibility drops off faster than anyone expects.

  • A score for your immediate area

    Measured within three miles of your front door, because that's where most of your customers are.

  • A written read

    What the map is showing, in words, so you're not left interpreting a grid of numbers on your own.

  • Every scan you've run

    Do one next month and you can put them side by side and see whether the work you did moved anything.

04. What it costs

Included, once a week

It's included in membership. One scan a week, on one search term at a time.

The limit is deliberate. Rankings don't move day to day, and a weekly check shows you a trend without becoming another thing you refresh.

Local Radar is one of twenty-one. See the rest from the inside.
