Five rebuilt sites, against what the business has today
Every change from this week is in these: the trust bar with stars and years, pill buttons,
the reviews wall with real reviewer names, a three-step process, an About us section, the editorial areas
block, the substantive niche content, and five demand-led articles on an Advice subpage.
Trust bar now reads "10 years of tree work", not "Trading since 2016 per Companies House".
Reviews lead with the harvested name ("Peter M.") with the Google mark behind it.
Process cut to three standard steps. No invented pricing, timings or guarantees anywhere.
Areas rebuilt as an editorial list rather than pill chips that looked like a broken filter.
Advice articles chosen from real UK search volumes, not from what interested me.

Tree surgery · Nailsworth · 5.0 from 85 Google reviews · trading since 2016
Verified gap: the homepage is still titled "Home", which is what Google prints as the blue link. Re-verified 2026-08-07, it holds.

Moe's Group
Landscaping, mowing and tree work · Stonehouse
Verified gap: at 375px the site has 712px of horizontal overflow, six containers locked at 980px, and no tappable phone number. Measured by hand in a real browser, not headless.

Tree surgery · Cheltenham · ARB Approved Contractor · over 30 years
No postcard yet. This lead has no verified site-wide gap on record, so there is nothing honest to print. The site build stands on its own as a demonstration.
Their site todaychelt-trees.comOur v2This week's buildOnly one usable photograph existed, so the work gallery was refused by the gate rather than padded out.
Landscaping · Stroud · over 20 years · 65 Google reviews
No postcard yet. No verified site-wide gap, and no review quotes harvested, so the review section shows the verifiable numbers and points at Google rather than inventing quotes.
Their site todaygreaterscaping.co.ukA 199-word site. The hardest kind to write from, and the best test of the copy rules.Our v2This week's build
No postcard yet. Their own photographs were 430px banner strips, unusable at any size, so the hero is generated and the footer says so. The gallery was refused on the generated flag: computer imagery can never pose as their portfolio.

Why three of the five have no postcard. A card only gets printed where there is a verified,
durable, site-wide fault we can name honestly. Three of these firms do not have one. That is the system
working: this week a checker bug was found that had been reading only the homepage and calling it the
whole site, and two cards that claimed "no way to contact you" turned out to be false. Both were
withdrawn and their PDFs destroyed. Nothing has ever been posted.
