02Cheadle visibility checklist

Could a Cheadle customer find and choose you?

The checks we run first for Cheadle businesses. Each one is something Google, Maps or an AI tool uses to decide who to show, and each gap is something we can fix.

  1. Cheadle, Stockport, not Cheadle, Staffordshire

    There’s a second Cheadle in Staffordshire Moorlands, with ST10 postcodes, and searchers often add “Stockport” or “Stoke” to tell them apart. Your profile, page titles and business details should say Cheadle, Stockport and SK8 so Google and AI tools never confuse the two.

  2. The right village on your pin

    Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme each have their own high street. Your map pin, directions and opening line should point to the one customers actually walk into, and your pages should name the other if you serve it too.

  3. Holding your own against Manchester results

    On the Gatley and Didsbury side of SK8, Manchester firms crowd into the results. Pages and profiles that clearly name Cheadle, Gatley, Heald Green and Cheadle Hulme give Google a reason to show a local business instead.

  4. Service areas that cross into Cheshire

    SK8 reaches over the boundary into Cheshire East around Handforth. If you travel to customers, hide your address and list the areas you cover; Google allows service areas within about two hours’ drive of your base.

  5. Hours that are right on market Saturdays

    The Makers Market on Cheadle Green and the village’s Christmas festival bring extra people in. Special hours set in advance stop a visitor checking Maps from finding you closed, or missing that you’re open late.

  6. Reviews that mention what you do

    A steady run of genuine Google reviews from Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme customers, each with a reply. Never bought, and never filtered to only the happy ones.

  7. What AI tools say about Cheadle

    We ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity and Google’s AI the questions your customers ask, such as where to get brunch in Cheadle or which accountant to use in Cheadle Hulme, several times over, and note who gets recommended.

Cheadle sits on the western side of Stockport borough, with Gatley and Didsbury to the north-west and Cheadle Hulme to the south-east. At the 2021 Census, 16,096 people lived in the Cheadle and Gatley ward and 27,664 in the Cheadle Hulme North and Cheadle Hulme South wards.[1] Stockport Council counts Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme as two of the borough’s eight district centres,[5] each with its own high street,[8][9] and both share the SK8 postcode district, which also reaches into Cheshire East around Handforth.[3] The name needs care online: a second Cheadle, in Staffordshire Moorlands, uses ST10 postcodes.[4]

Around 22,000 jobs were based in the three wards covering Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme in 2024.[2] The mix differs from ward to ward: health accounts for 29.2% of jobs in Cheadle West and Gatley, against 13.8% across England; professional, scientific and technical work for 16.7% and finance for 13.9% in Cheadle East and Cheadle Hulme North; and retail for 28.6% in Cheadle Hulme South.[2] The council describes Cheadle as fast becoming one of Stockport’s most exciting centres for food lovers, with new coffee shops, bars and restaurants and a monthly Makers Market on Cheadle Green.[5] Cheadle has also secured £13.9m of Towns Fund money for a planned railway station, a north–south walking and cycling route and an eco business park on Bird Hall Lane.[6][7]

  • Health and care

    Clinics, practices and care providers: health is 29.2% of jobs in the Cheadle West and Gatley ward.[2] Patients compare them on Maps and reviews before they book.

  • Professional and financial services

    Accountants, advisers and specialist firms. In Cheadle East and Cheadle Hulme North, professional services make up 16.7% of jobs and finance 13.9%, both well above the England figures.[2]

  • Shops and retail around Cheadle Hulme

    Retail accounts for 28.6% of jobs in the Cheadle Hulme South ward, against 8.2% across England,[2] so local shops compete with big names for the same nearby searches.

All our services

Looking for local SEO in Cheadle?

Local SEO decides whether you appear in the Maps results when someone in Cheadle, Gatley or Cheadle Hulme searches for what you do. We set up your Google Business Profile so it clearly reads as Cheadle, Stockport, put your pin in the right village, add service areas such as Heald Green or Handforth if you cover them, keep genuine reviews coming, and make your details match on Google, Bing and Apple Maps.

Looking for AI SEO in Cheadle?

People now ask ChatGPT, Copilot or Google’s AI things like “a good brunch spot in Cheadle” or “a physio in Cheadle Hulme”. Those answers lean on businesses with clear, consistent information across the web, and a shared town name makes that harder. We check what the main AI tools say about your field in Cheadle and fix the gaps. Nobody can guarantee a mention, and our free audit shows where you stand today.

Looking for a web designer in Cheadle?

We design fast, search-ready websites for Cheadle businesses that say plainly what you offer, which village you’re in and how to reach you, with tap-to-call numbers and short enquiry forms.

05How we work

Five steps. No long contracts.

  1. Check where you stand

    A free visibility audit: where you appear on Google, in the Maps results and in the main AI tools for the searches Cheadle customers make, and who’s getting those enquiries instead.

  2. Fix the foundations

    Your Google Business Profile, Bing Places listing and directory details made complete and identical, with the right categories and the areas you really cover across SK postcodes.

  3. Make your website say it plainly

    Clear pages for each service and the towns you serve, written for Cheadle customers rather than copied from one town to the next, so Google and AI tools can see what you do and where.

  4. Earn reviews and local mentions

    A simple routine for asking every customer for a review, and genuine mentions from local organisations, suppliers and press. Never bought, never fake.

  5. Track what changes

    Calls, form enquiries and Maps actions tracked from the start, plus regular checks of what AI tools say about your trade in your town, reported as a trend rather than one screenshot.

08Questions

SEO in Cheadle, straight answers.

What Cheadle business owners ask us before getting started.

Do you do SEO for businesses in Cheadle?

Yes. Get Found is a local SEO, AI SEO and web design agency based at Charter House, Norbury St, Stockport, with a second office at 39 Foregate St, Worcester. We work with businesses in Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme, and with clients across the UK. Every project starts with a free visibility audit, and there are no long contracts.

Do you have an office in Cheadle?

Not in Cheadle itself. Cheadle is part of the Stockport borough we’re based in, but our office is in Stockport town centre, at Charter House, Norbury St. We work with Cheadle businesses by phone, video and in person at the Stockport office by arrangement.

What does an SEO agency do for a Cheadle business?

An SEO agency improves the things Google and AI tools use to decide which Cheadle businesses to show: your Google Business Profile, your website’s content and technical set-up, your reviews and how consistent your details are online. For a Cheadle firm that also means making clear you’re in Cheadle, Stockport, and competing sensibly with Manchester businesses for nearby searches. Get Found starts with a free visibility audit that shows where you appear today.

How do I get my Cheadle business into the Google Maps results?

Google says local results are mainly based on relevance, distance and popularity, and there’s no way to request or pay for a better local ranking. For a Cheadle business, that means a verified, complete Business Profile with the right main category, a pin on the correct high street (Cheadle or Cheadle Hulme), genuine reviews and identical details everywhere. A website that clearly describes what you do in Cheadle helps Google judge relevance.

Can you help my Cheadle business show up in ChatGPT and Google’s AI answers?

We can improve the odds. AI tools tend to recommend Cheadle businesses whose information is clear and consistent across their website, reviews and listings, and that matters more when another Cheadle exists in Staffordshire. We test the questions your customers ask in ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity and Google’s AI, then fix what’s missing. No one can guarantee a mention, but our free visibility audit includes an AI check.

Do you build websites for Cheadle businesses?

Yes. We build fast, search-ready websites for Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme businesses, with tap-to-call numbers, short enquiry forms and clear pages for your services and the parts of SK8 you cover. If your current site already ranks for useful searches, the redesign keeps what works. You own the domain and the website.

How much does SEO cost for a Cheadle business?

It depends on what your Cheadle business needs and how competitive your searches are, which can be tougher here because Manchester firms compete for the same customers. We don’t sell off-the-shelf packages; we quote each project after a free visibility audit. There are no long contracts.

Do you cover Cheadle Hulme as well as Cheadle?

Yes. Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme are neighbouring places with separate high streets, and both use the SK8 postcode. We help businesses in either one, and in nearby Gatley and Heald Green, set up their profile and pages around the village customers actually search for.

Why do Google results for my Cheadle business sometimes show Cheadle in Staffordshire?

There are two Cheadles: ours in Stockport, with SK8 postcodes, and another in Staffordshire Moorlands, with ST10 postcodes. If your Cheadle business’s website and listings only say “Cheadle”, search engines and AI tools can mix them up. Adding Stockport and SK8 consistently to your profile, pages and directory listings makes it clear which Cheadle you mean.

Can local SEO help a Cheadle café, bar or restaurant?

Yes. Cheadle’s food and drink scene has grown, and people choosing where to eat usually decide from the Maps results, photos and reviews, and more and more from AI answers. Accurate hours (including Makers Market Saturdays), a clear menu page, good photos and genuine reviews all help a Cheadle venue get picked.

Rather talk it through? You’ll speak to the local team, not a call centre.
