Exhibit A
Mortgage Brokers work in Lincoln
Lincoln is a small mortgage market by national standards, and the firms serving it are mostly independent brokers and a handful of building society and estate agency operations rather than a large franchise network. The searches come from people buying in the city itself and from the villages and towns around it, and they are spread thinly across many phrases rather than concentrated in one. That spread is the demand available: a steady trickle of people looking for advice on a first mortgage, a remortgage or a move, each one searching in their own words. Paid search in a market this size is cheap enough that a few firms bid on the obvious terms, which leaves the longer, more specific searches open for pages that answer them properly.
