UK Address Format Guide: Postcode, Post Town, and Order
Explains why postcode often matters more than a state-like field on UK pages and how post town should be shown.
Why postcode is central
If you come from a US mindset, it is easy to over-focus on state-like structure. On UK pages, postcode often carries more of the location signal.
That is why UK pages should not mirror US copy too closely.
What the page should explain
The most useful copy topics are postcode, post town, and regional differences across the UK.
Once those are explained clearly, the page stops feeling like a country-name swap and starts having its own value.
How it supports the generator

That explanatory layer is what turns a working tool into a stronger search page.
