Care websites and search in Hampshire
We are a West Sussex studio, an easy drive from most of Hampshire, and the care sector is the only sector we work in. If a visit is useful, we come to you rather than send a link to a video call.

What that means if you run a service here
301 providers in Hampshire have no website at all. If you have one, you are already ahead of two in five of your competitors. The question is whether yours answers what families ask before they ring, because most of the ones we review do not.
67% are rated Good or Outstanding, so a good rating does not make you stand out here. It is the baseline. What separates you is whether a family comparing three homes at eleven at night can find your fees, your availability and a way to visit.
361 of the 832 are home care or live-in providers, which makes recruitment as competitive as enquiries. Every one of them is advertising for the same carers in the same towns, and most are paying a job board to do it.
What good looks like in a Hampshire search
This is the search a family in Basingstoke makes when a parent needs help at home, and this is the difference between the providers who have done the work and the ones who have not.
About 324,900 results. The first two are lists. The third is an agency.

An illustration. Google decides which enhancements it shows for any search.
Two directories, then a provider. The directories are there because they have thousands of pages and a decade of links, and no amount of rewriting your About page changes that.
What does change is the third result. Hours, coverage, what you charge and how fast you can start, all readable before the click. 361 home care and live in providers are registered in Hampshire, and the number publishing that is close to none.
It is not a trick and it is not paid placement. It is the same page, marked up so a search engine can read it.
The markup underneath it
Care providers are the easiest sector in the country to mark up properly, because what a family wants to know is exactly what schema.org already has fields for. Almost nobody here does it.

An illustration, and a deliberately ordinary one. Nothing here is unusual or clever, which is what makes the fact that almost nobody publishes it worth knowing.
