Based on the work we have already done for similar businesses. A starting point, not a claim that we already have clients in each sector in Cardiff.
Professional services
Buyers shortlist two or three firms from Google and compare expertise pages, fees and reviews before they make contact. Ranking for the specialist service plus the city ('employment solicitor Leeds', 'contractor accountant') matters more than ranking for the profession alone.

Training and courses
People search by course, level and outcome, and employers search differently from individuals. Separate pages for each course and for employer or group bookings stop the two audiences landing on the same page.

Home services
Buyers want availability, price guidance and trust, fast. Service-by-service pages, reviews and a well-run Business Profile are the difference between a call and a bounce.

Other service areas
Working with UpStream in Cardiff
Which service should a Cardiff business start with?
If you already have a decent website, start with SEO (£199 a month, 3-month minimum). If your site is slow, dated or hard to use, start with a new website (from £399) and add SEO once it is live. If you sell products, start with an online store (from £799). If you need enquiries this month and can fund ad spend, Google Ads (people already searching) or Meta Ads (reaching people before they search) start from £229 a month per platform plus setup, with no minimum term.
Do you have an office in Cardiff?
No. UpStream is a UAE-based agency that works with Cardiff businesses remotely, by video call and email. Your Google Business Profile stays tied to your own address or service area.
Are prices different for Cardiff?
No. The same UK prices apply everywhere in the UK. Larger national or multi-city SEO campaigns are quoted separately.
