  2. 2I run a small business in Manchester. Which firm of accountants would you recommend?
  3. 3I need help with my self-assessment tax return in Manchester. Which accountant should I use?
  4. 4Which bookkeeping service in Manchester would you recommend for a small company?

On this page the same questions were also asked with web search on, 1 answers. 33% of the businesses named with search were also named without it; the With search column above is each business's share of those answers.

How to read this page

The full method
What it measures
Which names these models produce when asked cold, from what they learned in training. It is not a review, a rating or our recommendation, and a business missing here may simply be one the models were never shown.
Why the ranges matter
48 answers is a sample. Asked again next month, most shares will move by a few points; the ranges say how far they could move by chance alone.
One business, several spellings
Branches, legal suffixes and spellings of one business are merged, and the other spellings are printed under its name. Names that might be two businesses are kept apart.
A name is wrong
If a business here is closed, misnamed or yours and you want it removed, tell us. We correct or remove it when the page is next published.
