Growth Review
This review is about who your website brings in. You're a genuinely new business, founded this January, and that shows up clearly in the numbers: only three searches are tracked for your whole domain, and two of them, "north cork electrical" and "east coast energy," are other companies' names, not yours. The site itself is real and well built. It just hasn't had time to be found yet. It's all detailed below, with what to do about it.
This is what a genuinely new business's search footprint looks like. Google tracks three searches total for your domain, and two of the three belong to other, separate companies entirely.
| What people Google | People / month | Your situation | |
|---|---|---|---|
| north cork electrical | 590 | 30th. This is a different company's name, not yours. | 30th |
| east coast energy | 260 | 50th. Also a different company entirely. | 50th |
| cok | 170 | 15th, for the generic three-letter term, not your full name. | 15th |
Nothing here is a red flag. A business six months old with only 2 sites linking to it hasn't had the time for Google to learn what it actually is yet. The fix isn't complicated, it's early, deliberate work: give Google clear signals about who you are and what you do, in each of your four real service pages.
The site itself is in good shape. This is about giving it the early groundwork a six-month-old business needs.
None of this is a design problem. This is early, foundational work for a business that's six months old: build the links, name your area clearly, and give Google time to catch up to a site that's already genuinely well built.
Each fix below is ready to hand to whoever manages the site.
Start at the top. The bottom block is the work that moves the numbers.
Around 1,000 people a month search the three terms Google currently tracks for you.
None of the three is actually your own business name.
Only 2 sites currently link to you, matching a business this new.
There's no traffic number worth projecting yet, because the site hasn't had the time to build one. What matters at this stage is that the real pages, the real badges and the real founder story are already in place. Once your own name and area start showing up in the tracked searches, that's the point this becomes a numbers conversation.
Every month without Cork or Munster built clearly into the real pages is a month a longer-established competitor's page is the one Google shows for those searches instead. The earlier this groundwork starts, the sooner it compounds.
