What actually breaks

Page title does not name the city they work in
on 18 of them.

Sorted by how often it appears, the fault list for real estate agents in Bolton starts with page title does not name the city they work in (18 sites) and no structured data for google to read (13). Both are cheap to fix and neither requires rebuilding anything.

Real estate agents in Bolton with no enquiry form7 of 37
Real estate agents letting Google write their description6 of 37
Real estate agents whose domain no longer resolves5 of 37

We would start at the bottom of that list, not the top — no analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does affects fewer sites here (11), which means fixing it puts you ahead of the 26 that already have it right only if the basics are done too.

Questions

Straight answers.

How many real estate agents are there in Bolton?

43 listings, of which 1 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 42 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.

How many Google reviews do I need to compete in Bolton?

To be average in Bolton you need 6. To be in the top quarter you need more than 23. To be visible next to the busiest real estate agent here you would need 165, which took them years. 33 of the 43 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.

What does a website for a real estate agent in Bolton cost?

Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.
