The brief
Woodside Motor Services is a well-established independent garage in Birmingham: MOTs, servicing, diagnostics and bodywork. The skills and the reputation were there. The digital side was not. The old website was slow and not mobile-friendly, and they were invisible on Google for the searches their customers type in every day.
The brief was simple: a website that turns visitors into bookings, and a local presence that actually shows up.
What we did
- Built a fast, mobile-first website with online booking in under 60 seconds
- Optimised the Google Business Profile and set up a review generation system
- Local SEO across high-intent terms like "MOT Birmingham" and "garage near me"
- Ran Google Ads for instant visibility while the SEO built up
- Took over social media with workshop content and local ads
The result
Organic traffic up 340%, a steady spot in the Google Map Pack top 3, and 2x the monthly bookings. Online booking takes the pressure off the phones, the Google Ads bring in jobs from day one, and the reviews keep climbing. Woodside is now one of the most visible garages in Birmingham, online and off.
