Local trades businesses are losing customers because of one simple SEO mistake. Their page titles don’t include the service or location.

If your homepage title says: “Home” or “Welcome” Google has far less understanding of what you actually do.

Your titles should clearly include:
* Your service
* Your location

For example:
* Plumber in Southend
* Roofer in Chelmsford

Want to check yours? Search: site:yourdomain.co.uk

This shows the title tags Google is reading from your website.
