Exclusive Tree Surgeon Leads Delivered Through Our Digital Moat Strategy.

Stop Chasing Shared Leads

An Exclusive “Digital Moat” for Tree Surgeons. 12 Professional Websites. One 10-Mile Radius. 100% Exclusive to You.

Why Bark, Checkatrade, and Google Ads are Failing You.

  • The Price War: They sell the same lead to 3-5 of your local competitors. You’re forced to bid lower just to win the work.
  • The “Tyre Kickers”: You pay for lead credits even when the phone number is fake or the job is 50 miles away.
  • Zero Brand Loyalty: The customer doesn’t want you; they want the lowest price on the app.

Your 12-Site Search Engine Fortress.

“We don’t just give you a profile on a directory. We build a Digital Moat around your business. We deploy a network of 12 separate local domains and websites that rank across your 10-mile radius.”

  • 🔒 Hard Exclusivity: When the phone rings, it’s only for you. No bidding, no competition.
  • 🌲 Niche Specific: Our sites are built specifically for Tree Surgery—targeting “Tree Felling,” “Stump Grinding,” and “Emergency Tree Work.”
  • 📈 Omnipresence: Instead of fighting for one spot on Google, you occupy multiple positions. You become the “obvious choice” in your town.

The Fair-Lead Guarantee

We only count ‘Qualified Enquiries’ toward your tier volume. If a lead is a wrong number, a sales call, or outside your service area, it doesn’t count. You only pay for real opportunities to quote.

PLUS: Get the Lead-Conversion Playbook Free.

When you partner with us, you don’t just get the calls. You get The Digital Moat Lead-Conversion Playbook. We show you exactly how to handle these exclusive enquiries to ensure you’re closing high-ticket takedowns, not just small pruning jobs.

Is Your 10-Mile Radius Still Open?

Once a Tree Surgeon in your area claims their Digital Moat, this page will be taken down and the territory will be closed. Don’t let your competitor lock you out of the market.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is the “Digital Moat” 12-site system?

Most agencies build you one website and hope it ranks. We build a 12-site defensive perimeter around your local area. By deploying 12 high-authority, lead-gen focused assets targeting different high-intent keywords and specific local catchments, we effectively “crowd out” your competitors on Google. This ensures that when someone in your area needs a tree surgeon, they find you, multiple times.

Are these Tree Surgeon leads exclusive to my business?

Yes. 100%. Unlike platforms like Bark or Checkatrade where one lead is sold to five different tree surgeons resulting in a “race to the bottom” on price, every lead generated by your Digital Moat is yours and yours alone. You aren’t competing for the lead; you are just booking the job.

Why do I need 12 sites instead of just one good one?

Google’s search results are a battle for real estate. If you have one site, you have one chance to show up. With 12 optimised assets, you can occupy multiple spots on Page 1. This “moat” strategy makes it statistically much harder for a customer to choose a competitor, while also protecting you from search engine algorithm updates that might affect a single site.

How quickly will the phone start ringing?

Because we use a proven blueprint specifically for the tree surgery industry, we don’t start from scratch. Our 12-site structure is built for rapid indexing and high conversion. Most of our partners see their first qualified leads within the first 14 to 30 days of the moat being fully deployed.

Can I choose which areas or services we target?

Absolutely. We calibrate your Digital Moat to focus on your most profitable work—whether that’s large-scale tree removals, emergency call-outs, or commercial site clearance. We map your 12 sites to the specific postcodes and towns inside you actually want to work in.
