Local SEO services
Business profiles, service areas and local content
Help nearby customers understand where you work and what you offer. We review business profile details, citations, location pages, review processes and local search evidence, then agree priorities for the areas you actually serve.
Starting from USD 299/month per locationFinal scope and price agreed before work starts.
Local search for real business locations
Start with where the business operates, the services it provides and the customers it can serve. A single location, service-area business and multi-location organisation need different plans. Confirm the actual locations and profile access before editing business information.
Profiles and useful website pages
Review business details, categories, services and the website pages that answer customer questions. Location pages should explain a real service or location, with accurate contact details and relevant evidence. The number of pages follows the customer need.
Reviews and measurement
Agree a process for requesting honest reviews and responding to them. Report relevant search queries, landing pages, contact actions and qualified enquiries where the business records them. A profile view or contact tap is a diagnostic action, rather than proof of a sale.

We check your map-pack position from points across the whole service area, not from your own office, and benchmark the three businesses beating you.

Why local businesses stay with us
Measure contact actions and enquiries
Profile calls and direction requests are counted separately from website enquiries, so you can see what the map is really worth to you.
Honest about proximity
Local visibility depends in part on the searcher’s location. Review the real service area and relevant queries when deciding which work to prioritise.
Your accounts, your data
The Business Profile, Search Console and analytics stay in your name. We ask for access, not ownership.
Starting from USD 299/month per location
One business location, with an agreed local-search backlog and reporting. Additional locations are scoped separately.
Local SEO, answered
What is local SEO and who needs it?
Local SEO is search work for businesses that serve a geographic area: clinics, contractors, restaurants, law firms, showrooms, franchises. If your customers search with a place name, or with "near me", or from a phone standing in your suburb, this is the version of SEO that applies to you.
How important is Google Business Profile?
A complete and accurate Business Profile helps customers understand the business and can support local visibility. Google describes local ranking in terms of relevance, distance and prominence. A profile should be reviewed alongside the website and genuine service area; no position is guaranteed.
How long does it take to rank in local search?
The timescale depends on the business, competition, location, starting point and changes made. Record the baseline and review search visibility, contact actions and genuine enquiries at agreed checkpoints. A fixed position or ranking date cannot be promised.
How much does local SEO cost?
Starting from USD 299/month per location. One business location, with an agreed local-search backlog and reporting. Additional locations are scoped separately. The proposal confirms the work, fees and responsibilities before you commit.
How much do reviews affect local rankings?
Google says more reviews and positive ratings can help local ranking. Useful reviews also help customers assess a business. Request honest feedback through an appropriate process and respond helpfully, without promising a ranking outcome.
Can you do local SEO for multiple locations?
Yes, and it is most of what we do in this service. Each location gets its own profile, page and report; brand-level citations and content are done once and shared. We also flag when two of your branches are competing for the same search, which happens more often than people expect.
