What we monitor (comprehensive listening)

We run continuous, localised listening across reviews, social and the open web so no mention goes unnoticed.

Local Google Business Profile & review sites

Google Reviews are priority number one, but we also monitor Apple Maps, Yelp, Trustpilot and TripAdvisor (where hospitality applies) to capture ratings, review text and reviewer behaviour.

Social media

Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), TikTok and LinkedIn — including local groups, event pages and relevant hashtags such as #MiltonKeynes and #StonyStratford — are tracked for mentions, complaints and opportunities.

News, blogs & forums

Local journalism and community sources matter. We monitor local outlets (for example, local community news and county weeklies), blogs, Reddit threads and neighbourhood forums for brand mentions and stories that affect perception.

Local directories & citations

We scan council directories, business listings for Bletchley, Newport Pagnell, Olney and other local directories to find inconsistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) data and missing citations that harm local search visibility.

Backlinks & brand mentions across the web

We detect both linked and unlinked brand mentions, flag toxic backlinks that could impact SEO, and identify PR or coverage that should be turned into structured citations.

How our Brand Monitoring service works

We combine automated tools with local human expertise so monitoring is precise, fast and relevant to Milton Keynes communities.

1. Setup & baseline audit

We map your online footprint: historical mentions, citation audit across Milton Keynes and nearby towns (Winslow, Towcester, Cranfield), and a snapshot of current review ratings and local pack presence.

2. Listening & tracking

Continuous monitoring runs 24/7 with enterprise and SMB tools plus manual checks of local forums and groups to capture slang, place names and event-driven mentions (MK Dons matches, MK Light Nights, weekend markets).

3. Alerts & escalation

Immediate alerts are sent for high‑risk mentions (negative reviews, viral complaints) via email, SMS or Slack so you can act fast and control the narrative.

4. Triage & recommended actions

We prioritise incidents using severity, reach and sentiment. For routine issues we provide reply templates; for major incidents we escalate to senior team members and, if necessary, legal partners.

5. Response & remediation

With your approval we can draft and publish responses that are empathetic and SEO-friendly, escalate to platform support for policy-violating content, or recommend customer remediation offers that reduce churn.

6. Reporting & insight

Weekly or monthly reports show sentiment trends, top channels, rating changes, keywords affecting local SEO and recommended actions to improve local rankings and customer experience.
