What is local SEO?

Local SEO is the work of making a business show up when people nearby search for what it sells: in Google’s map results, in regular results with “near me” or a city name, and in AI answers. It rests on four things: a complete Google Business Profile, the same name, address and phone everywhere, pages about your services and area, and reviews.

What Google looks at for local results

  1. Relevance

    How well your profile and pages match what was searched. Categories and services matter most.

  2. Distance

    How close you are to the person searching or to the place they typed.

  3. Prominence

    How well known you are: reviews, links, mentions, and how strong your website is. Google describes these three factors in its own help pages.

What it takes

  1. Google Business Profile

    Categories, services, hours, photos, description and booking links, set up right and kept current.

  2. Citations

    Your name, address and phone identical across the directories that matter for your industry.

  3. Local pages

    A page for each service and each area you truly serve, with real local proof.

  4. Reviews

    Ask after every job and reply to every review.

  5. AI answers

    Check what ChatGPT and Perplexity say about you, and correct wrong details at the source.

  6. Speed and labels

    A fast site with LocalBusiness structured data so search engines know exactly who and where you are.

Questions

How long does local SEO take?

Profile fixes can show results in weeks. Pages and reviews build over months. Your monthly check shows what changed, and we never promise a position.

Is local SEO different from regular SEO?

Yes. Local SEO adds the map, your Google Business Profile, distance and reviews. Regular SEO is about pages ranking anywhere.

Do I need a physical address?

No. Service-area businesses can hide their address and list the areas they serve, as Google’s guidelines say.

Do you make the changes for me?

Not yet. We check and give you your money tasks; you, or whoever runs your website, makes the changes. Growth, where we make them for you, has a waiting list.
