The Croydon map pack
For "near me" searches made in CR0 to CR8, Google ranks on proximity, your primary category and your reviews. We set your profile up so it qualifies for every search it should, and keep it active.
Croydon and South London
Modern Playbook is based in South London and works with local businesses across Croydon, the rest of South London and the whole of the UK. If you serve customers in Croydon, Purley, Coulsdon, Addiscombe, South Norwood or Thornton Heath, this page is about how we get you found by them on Google and in AI answers.
What we do in Croydon
Croydon is one of London's largest boroughs, and for most searches Google shows a map pack drawn from businesses within a few miles of the searcher. That means a plumber in Purley competes with Purley and Coulsdon, not with the whole of London. Winning here is about a complete Google Business Profile, recent reviews, and pages that name the places you serve.
For "near me" searches made in CR0 to CR8, Google ranks on proximity, your primary category and your reviews. We set your profile up so it qualifies for every search it should, and keep it active.
A steady flow of recent reviews from real local jobs is the fastest lever in the borough. The Review Growth System asks every customer and replies to every review, in your voice.
A page for each area you actually work in, from Addiscombe to Selsdon, written for the search people make there, so you rank in Google's results as well as on the map.
Areas
South London is the base, and the system works anywhere a customer searches. Across South London we work with businesses in Sutton, Bromley, Lambeth, Lewisham, Southwark, Wandsworth, Merton and Kingston, and nationally with any UK local business that wants more reviews and better rankings.
What it costs
Review Growth is £297 a month: your profile set up for reviews, past customers and every new job asked automatically, AI replies to every review, a live reviews widget and a monthly report. Complete Growth is £597 a month and adds local SEO and AI search. Both are month to month, with no setup fee and no exit fee, and a 30-day money-back guarantee on reviews.
Before you book
No. Croydon is on our doorstep in South London, so it is where we know the local market best, but the review system and the SEO work are delivered remotely and run the same way for a business in Leeds or Cardiff. The main pages on this site describe the UK-wide service.
Google's map pack is driven by proximity, so your profile should reflect where you genuinely operate: your real service area, the categories that describe what you do, and the towns you actually travel to. We set that up for you on day one.
That is the map pack, and it is the first thing we work on. Your profile, your reviews and your proximity to the searcher decide it. We cannot move your location, but we can make sure everything else is complete and active, and that your reviews keep arriving.
Yes, if you are in or around Croydon. Most clients prefer a video call, which is how the free discovery call works, but a coffee in the borough is always possible.
