I had been ranking number 1 in Manchester for quite some time and my business was really struggling.
In fact, I was close to giving up altogether when I found a local website in Manchester that didn't rank anywhere on the first page of Google, but it seemed to rank in all of the smaller areas throughout Greater Manchester.
I spoke to the owner of the website who agreed to rent this website to me for £500 a month, which seems very cheap now, but it was a long time ago.
I agreed and he added my phone number to the website. Almost instantly I started receiving between 5 and 15 phone calls a day all from local customers looking for me to do Locksmith work for them.
I assumed this was just an anomaly so didn't pay much attention, until 6 weeks later this was still happening and I was making more money than I ever had before.
