Aberdeen and the places nearby.
Aberdeen's economy has long revolved around North Sea oil and gas, now increasingly the wider energy sector, which brings periods of high spending and sharper downturns when the industry contracts. The granite housing stock has its own maintenance quirks, and shift patterns offshore mean many customers are only reachable at odd times. A business that makes online enquiries simple and responds quickly suits a market where people are often away for weeks.
Across the boundary into the next council area, Portlethen (6 miles) and Westhill (7 miles) are also close. A longer drive takes in Stonehaven (14 miles), Inverurie (14 miles), Ellon (15 miles) and Oldmeldrum (15 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Inside Aberdeen, the site can name areas such as Rosemount, Ferryhill, Old Aberdeen, Cults, Bridge of Don and Dyce.
Aberdeen addresses fall in the AB postcode area, about 448 miles north of Exeter, where we are based.
