Where it all started. Still in the town centre.

Stockport is where Get Found began, and it’s still home to one of our two offices. The team here works with businesses across Stockport and Greater Manchester, and 22 years in, we’d still rather meet you than send you a slide deck.

03Search in Stockport

A Manchester-sized fight. Won street by street.

You’re not just up against the high street

Stockport sits right on Manchester’s doorstep, so local searches pull in city agencies, national chains and directory sites as well as the business down the road. The ones that win are rarely the biggest. They’re the ones Google and AI tools can most easily trust as local.

People search by neighbourhood

Stockport is a borough of distinct places. People type “Bramhall”, “Heaton Moor” or “Cheadle Hulme” as often as “Stockport”, and “near me” searches on a phone are answered by where they’re standing. Ranking in the town centre doesn’t mean you’re visible in Marple.

And more of them are asking AI

More people now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google’s AI Overviews for a recommendation. They get a handful of names, not ten blue links, and those names come from the same local signals we build.

The kind of searches your customers make

  • GoogleSearched from Heaton Chapel

    “web designer manchester”

    Up against: City-centre agencies with big budgets, even when there’s a good Stockport firm much closer.

  • Google MapsSearched from Bramhall

    “plumber near me”

    Up against: A different 3-pack from the one someone sees in Edgeley. Maps answers by where you’re standing.

  • GoogleSearched from Reddish

    “roofer stockport”

    Up against: National directories and lead-gen sites, sat above the local firms that do the work.

  • AI answerAsked in ChatGPT

    “Who’s a good accountant in Stockport?”

    Up against: A short answer naming a few firms. If you’re not one of them, there’s no page two.

Example searches, to show how results differ. Your audit shows your real ones.

04What we do in Stockport

SEO, AI search and websites. One local team.

05Areas we cover

SEO across Stockport. Every neighbourhood, not just the postcode.

    • Davenport

  • North and west

    • Heaton Moor

Nearby, from our Stockport team

South-east, on the A6

SEO in Hazel Grove

Hazel Grove has its own high street strung along the A6, and its customers search across Hazel Grove, Bramhall, Offerton and Poynton. We help local trades, shops and clinics show up for the “near me” searches made right there, not just for “Stockport”.

West, by the M60 and A34

SEO in Cheadle

Cheadle mixes a village high street with busy retail and business parks, and searches here overlap with Cheadle Hulme, Gatley and Didsbury. We help Cheadle businesses stand out from the Manchester results that crowd in on that side of town.

06Who we work with

Owner-run Stockport businesses that live on local enquiries.

If your phone rings because someone nearby searched for what you do, we can help. These are the kinds of business we work with most.

  1. Trades

    Plumbers, electricians, roofers, builders

    Example search: “emergency electrician hazel grove”

    Most of your work comes from the Maps 3-pack and “near me” searches. We make sure you appear across every area you’ll drive to.

  2. Clinics

    Physios, dentists, vets, beauty and aesthetics

    Example search: “physio cheadle hulme”

    Patients compare reviews and read before they book. We build the profile, pages and trust signals that get you chosen.

  3. Professional services

    Accountants, solicitors, estate agents, consultants

    Example search: “family solicitor stockport”

    High-value searches where Manchester firms crowd in. We make your local expertise easy for Google and AI tools to recognise.

  4. Hospitality

    Restaurants, cafés, bars, venues

    Example search: “brunch heaton moor”

    Decisions made on a phone, often in the moment. Photos, menus, hours and reviews all have to be right on Maps.

  5. Retail

    Independent shops, showrooms, local chains

    Example search: “florist bramhall”

    Getting found for what you sell and where you are, so people walk in rather than order from a national site.

09Questions

SEO in Stockport, answered straight.

Where is your Stockport office?

We’re at Charter House, Norbury St, Stockport SK1 3SH, in the town centre. The office is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. Stockport is where Get Found started, and you’re welcome to come in and meet the team: just call 07811 415534 first so we can make sure the right person is in.

Are you a full-service digital marketing agency?

We’re a digital marketing agency built around search. Local SEO, AI SEO and web design come first, because that’s where most Stockport businesses win new customers. We also run Google Ads and social media when they’ll genuinely pay their way, and we’ll tell you plainly when they won’t.

Do you work with Manchester businesses too?

Yes. Our Stockport team works with businesses right across Greater Manchester, from Didsbury and the city centre to Altrincham, and into Cheshire towns like Wilmslow, Poynton and Macclesfield. Local SEO works street by street, so we plan around the areas your customers actually search from rather than treating “Manchester” as one big market.

How much does SEO cost in Stockport?

Every plan is quoted after a free visibility audit. A single-van trade in Offerton and a multi-branch clinic competing across Greater Manchester are very different jobs, so we look at where you rank and who you’re up against first, then quote in plain English. You’ll know what’s included and what it costs before anything starts, and there’s no long contract.

How long does local SEO take?

It depends on your starting point and how hard your competitors are pushing. Some fixes, like the right Google Business Profile categories or correcting business details that don’t match across the web, can make a difference fairly quickly. Building the reviews, links and pages that keep you in the Maps 3-pack is steadier, month-by-month work. We won’t promise a date or a ranking, but every monthly report shows exactly what has moved and what hasn’t.

How our local SEO works
Do you build websites for Stockport businesses?

Yes. We design and build websites for Stockport businesses with local SEO built in from the start: pages planned around the searches your customers make, fast on a phone, and easy to get in touch from. If your current site is doing its job, we’ll tell you rather than sell you a new one.

Web design that ranks
Can you help us show up in ChatGPT and AI search?

Yes. When someone in Stockport asks ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google’s AI Overviews for a recommendation, the answer leans on many of the same signals local SEO builds: your Business Profile, reviews, listings and what other local sources say about you. Our AI SEO work builds on that, so AI tools can find, understand and quote your business.

How AI SEO works
Am I tied into a long contract?

No. We don’t do long contracts. SEO has to earn its keep every month, and our monthly reporting is there so you can judge that for yourself.
