Local SEO

Show up first when someone searches for what you do nearby.

I help service-area businesses get found in Google Maps, the local pack, and the searches your future customers are running right now. Google, your website, and AI search, all three, working together.

  • Direct access No account manager, no agency

The Real Problem

You’re doing great work. Google just doesn’t know that yet.

Your customers aren’t searching your business name.

They’re typing “plumber near me” or “electrician open now.” If you don’t show up, it doesn’t matter how good your work is. The call goes to whoever Google shows first.

Your Google profile and your website are telling different stories.

Most local businesses have a GBP that says one thing and a website that says something else, or barely says anything at all. When your profile and site aren’t aligned, you lose visibility in both places.

What I Do

Five things I fix that most local businesses are getting wrong

These are the areas where I consistently find the biggest gaps and the fastest wins.

01

Google Business Profile optimization

Most profiles are half-finished. I optimize your categories, services, descriptions, images, and posting strategy so you actually compete in the map pack.

02

Local landing pages

I build location-specific pages that target the searches your customers are actually making, not a zip code list that does nothing.

03

On-page SEO

Titles, headings, internal links, schema markup. Most local sites have easy wins hiding in plain sight, and I find them and fix them.

04

Reviews and trust signals

I help you build a system that earns reviews consistently, responds to them well, and makes sure they’re working for your rankings.

Why This Works

Local SEO works when your profile, your site, and your reviews tell the same story.

What separates them

Businesses that get found locally
  • Service-area pages built around how people actually search
  • GBP and website reinforcing the same services, areas, and details
  • Reviews coming in consistently with a system behind them
  • Business name, address, and phone number matching everywhere Google checks
Businesses that don’t
  • One generic “Areas We Serve” page with a list of city names
  • GBP says one thing, website says something else, or nothing at all
  • Three reviews from two years ago and no plan to get more
  • Business details that don’t match across directories and listings

FAQ

Common questions

Who is this for?

Service-area businesses and local businesses that depend on being found nearby. Plumbers, HVAC companies, electricians, cleaners, law firms, dentists, home service providers, and similar businesses. If your customers search for what you do plus a location, this is for you.

How long before I see results?

Most businesses see meaningful changes within 30 to 90 days, depending on where they’re starting. Some fixes, especially around GBP and on-page SEO, can improve visibility in weeks.

What if I’ve been burned by an SEO agency before?

You’re not alone. I work differently: direct communication, clear priorities, honest recommendations, and no hiding behind dashboards. Starting with a Strategy Call is a low-risk way to see how I work before committing to anything bigger.

Do you guarantee rankings?

No. Anyone who guarantees rankings is either lying or doesn’t understand how Google works. What I guarantee is experienced work, clear communication, and a focus on the local signals that actually matter.
