Local SEO services

Show up when nearby customers search.

Local SEO is how your business gets into the Google Maps results at the top of the page, where most local customers decide who to call. We handle the pieces that move you up: your Google profile, your reviews, your listings across the web and your website.

What Google looks at

The three things that decide who shows up

Relevance

Does your profile clearly match the search? Categories, services and your description tell Google what you do.

Distance

How close you are to the person searching. We set up your address and service area the way your customers actually search.

Prominence

How well known and trusted you are: reviews, consistent listings across the web, and an active profile and website.

How we measure it

Before and after, on the map

On day one we record where you rank on Google Maps for your most important searches, from your own location. Then we recheck on a set schedule, so you always have a clear before and after, plus the calls, website clicks and direction requests from your profile.

Questions

Local SEO questions

What is local SEO?

Local SEO is everything that helps your business show up when people nearby search for what you do, especially in the Google Maps results at the top of the page. It covers your Google Business Profile, your reviews, your listings on other directories and your website.

How long does local SEO take to work?

Fixes like categories and services can help within a few weeks. Reviews, listings and regular activity build up over a few months. We track your map rankings so you can see the progress instead of guessing.

What are citations, and do they matter?

Citations are listings of your business name, address and phone on other sites, like Apple Maps, Bing, Yelp and data providers that feed hundreds of smaller directories. When they all match, Google trusts your business more. When they don't, it can hold your rankings back.

Do you work outside San Diego?

Yes. Our office is in Hillcrest, San Diego, and we work with businesses anywhere in the U.S. Everything happens online.

Do you guarantee rankings?

No. Nobody controls Google's results, and anyone who guarantees a #1 spot is guessing. We fix what's holding you back, build the signals Google looks for, and report your rankings honestly.
