Method
Search terms: a fixed keyword set per service for United Kingdom, tagged by intent (general, near me, urgent and specific jobs), targeted to Bristol with Google Ads location codes, not a text match.
Monthly searches is the average of the last 12 months, summed across the counted keywords. Related keywords are listed but never counted.
Click price is the search-weighted average click price across the counted keywords (sum of each keyword's click price times its monthly searches, divided by total searches), as Google Ads reports the per-keyword prices via DataForSEO.
Year on year compares the last 12 months of counted searches with the 12 months before.
Cost per booked treatment is the click price divided by the lead rate times the booking rate. The lead rate is LocaliQ's US share of clicks that become calls or forms for the closest industry (US benchmark); the booking rate is ServiceTitan's share of calls that book, for trades (US/Canada benchmark). Where either rate has no source, the page prints no number.
DataForSEO reports click prices in US$; they convert to GBP at the Federal Reserve H.10 September 2026 average (1 GBP = 1.3406 US$).
