City coverage model
Mechanic Head creates city directories when there is enough public shop information to make comparison useful. City pages link to service-specific local pages and individual shop profiles.
How to interpret coverage
A city with more shop records gives drivers more comparison options. A smaller city can still be useful when listings include phone, website, photos, hours, and clear service signals.
Comparison table

FAQ
Is coverage the same as market share?
No. Coverage means public records available in the directory, not market share or demand.
Why do some cities have more pages?
They have more public shop records and more service categories with enough data to compare.
How often should coverage be reviewed?
Directory data should be reviewed regularly because shops, hours, websites, and service offerings can change.
