Local SEO for your business

Get found.Get called.with Local SEO

We put your business in front of the people who need what you do, so they can call you.

Mostly that’s your Google Maps listing and the website behind it, which is what Google checks.

We don’t try to beat Google.
We get Google to trust you.

We do local SEO, and most of that is your Google Business Profile, so here’s the whole idea:

No algorithm tricks, and no promised rankings either, because nobody can promise a ranking and anyone who says otherwise is guessing.

What you can’t see from your own shop

You rank first at your front door.
Three streets away you’re gone.

Google shows different results depending on where the person is standing. So “are we ranking?” has no single answer. It has one answer per street. We map it, then work on the squares where nobody can find you.

  • Top three. You’re in the map pack.
  • Four to seven. You’re slipping.
  • Eight or worse. Nobody scrolls that far.

How it works

  1. Look

    We go through your site, your Google profile and your competitors.

  2. Fix

    We fix what’s broken and make your site and profile match.

  3. Build

    We add a page for every service you sell, month after month.

  4. Report

    We send you a plain-English report of what changed.

How your articles get written

Every business has its own voice.
We write in yours.

A generic article is easy to spot and does nothing for you. So we learn how you talk to your customers and write that way. Nothing goes up until you’ve read it, and if it doesn’t sound like you, we do it again.

  1. 01

    We write it

    In your words, not ours.

  2. 02

    You read it

    Before it goes anywhere.

  3. 03

    It goes live

    Once you say it sounds right.

What it costs

It’s all here, because you shouldn’t have to book a call just to find out what something costs.

Questions worth asking

  • How long will it take for me to rank?

    Some fixes land in weeks. The rest takes months, and nobody can give you a date.

  • Is SEO worth it for my business?

    It’s a long game, not a quick fix. If you need the phone ringing this month, run ads instead. SEO pays bigger, later.

  • Can I just do this myself?

    Some of it, yes. Your profile and your hours take an afternoon, and the rest is time you probably don’t have.

  • What do you need from me?

    Your time, in small doses. You see what I write before it goes up, so it sounds like your business and not like a stranger wrote it.

  • How do I know it’s working?

    More calls, and more people asking for you by name. Not a chart with arrows on it.
