Market leader by size

The leading Analytics system shifts with company size: among UK M&E Contracting with under 10 employees, Google Analytics leads at 92.1% of the 759 with a detectable system; among UK M&E Contracting with 10–50 employees, Google Analytics leads at 92.7% of the 395 with a detectable system; and among UK M&E Contracting with over 50 employees, Google Analytics leads at 88.5% of the 61 with a detectable system.

Under 10 employees

Google Analytics

92.1% of band

Under 10 employees is the largest band, with 759 companies showing an Analytics system. Google Analytics leads with 92.1% share, while Site Kit and plugin-based tools tend to sit around smaller website estates.

10–50 employees

Google Analytics

92.7% of band

The 10–50 employees band covers 395 companies and looks much like the smaller-company market. Google Analytics leads with 92.7% share, leaving limited space for secondary analytics and visitor-tracking systems.

Over 50 employees

Google Analytics

88.5% of band

Over 50 employees is a smaller group, with 61 companies showing an Analytics system. Google Analytics still leads at 88.5%, though larger contractors appear somewhat more likely to have additional analytics or conversion-tracking tools alongside it.

How Analytics usage is detected

Methodology

Company data

Detected companies are joined to UK Companies House records and XBRL accounts data. Revenue and headcount figures come from the most recent filed accounts; where the company has not filed, values are estimated using a model trained on filed history and peer benchmarks and are labelled as estimates.

Detection

Firmbase crawls the public website of actively-trading UK companies and fingerprints the technologies present: tracking scripts, embedded forms, chat widgets, CMS markers and similar signatures. A company is included in this list when one or more of the technology's signatures are found on its site; closely-related variants of the same product are grouped under one name. Detection covers what is visible on the public web — a company using the technology purely internally, with no website footprint, will not appear. Counts are therefore a conservative floor, not a ceiling.

Freshness

Websites are re-crawled on a rolling basis and the underlying company data is refreshed from Companies House continuously; filings appear within days of submission. The list and its statistics are regenerated when the detected cohort moves meaningfully. You can see the last-updated timestamp near the top of the page.

What is a Analytics?
An Analytics system measures how visitors find and use a company website, including traffic sources, page views, events and conversion activity. For UK M&E contracting companies, it helps marketing and commercial teams understand whether search, referrals and campaign activity are producing enquiries.
How is Analytics usage detected?
Firmbase crawls the public website of every actively-trading company in this scope and fingerprints the technologies present — scripts, widgets, booking and checkout flows. A company is attributed to a system when that system's signatures are found; systems with no public web footprint are not attributable, which is why every share figure on this page means share of companies with a detectable system.
Which has more UK M&E contracting companies, Google Analytics or Site Kit?
Google Analytics: 1,119 detected companies versus 161 for Site Kit, of the 1,215 UK M&E contracting companies with a detectable Analytics.
