Local SEO for service businesses

Search

Show up when nearby customers search for what you do.

What it is

Updated

Local SEO is the work that gets your business found when nearby customers search for what you do. We fix the technical base, build a clear page for each service and area, keep your Google Business Profile current, ask for and answer reviews, and report calls and forms from search every month.

What it costs
From $3,500 / mo. Monthly retainer. The fixed monthly number depends on how many services and areas you cover. Retainers start with a minimum term of 3 to 12 months, depending on scope.
All pricing
How long it takes
Ongoing monthly work. Some technical fixes show movement quickly. Rankings and calls depend on competition, site history, and authority, so each monthly report shows what moved, what did not, and what comes next.
Who it is for
Service businesses that win work from nearby searches and the map.
What you get
  • A technical audit, then fixes for speed, structure, crawling, and schema
  • One clear page for each service and each area you cover
  • Google Business Profile categories, services, photos, and posts kept current
  • A simple way to ask for reviews, and a reply to every review
  • Content that answers the questions people ask before they call
  • A plain monthly report on calls and forms from search

How long until we see results?

Some technical fixes show movement quickly. Rankings and calls depend on competition, site history, content, and authority, so we report what moved, what did not, and what comes next.

What does local SEO cost?

From $3,500 / mo. Monthly retainer. The fixed monthly number depends on how many services and areas you cover. Retainers start with a minimum term of 3 to 12 months, depending on scope.

Do you guarantee rankings?

No. Nobody credible can. We commit to the work, the process, and an honest monthly report.

Can you work with our existing content team?

Yes, and it is often the best setup. We bring strategy and technical work, your team brings what it knows about the trade.

Do you do local SEO?

Yes. Google Business Profile, the local results list, and service and city pages for businesses that cover an area.

What if our site is on a bad platform?

We will tell you. Sometimes the best move is a rebuild, and we build websites too.

What is the difference between SEO and GEO?

SEO gets you into regular search results and the map. GEO makes your business easy for AI assistants to understand and name. They share most of the same foundations, and we cover both. Our SEO vs GEO comparison page explains the overlap.

Do we need a Google Business Profile?

If you serve customers in a local area, yes. It is where map results come from. We set up categories, services, photos, and posts, and keep them current.
