Local SEO is mostly the same list for every business. The difference is doing it every month and measuring it against enquiries, not positions alone.
Google Business Profile
The listing that shows in the map results. Categories, services, opening hours, photos and posts kept current, because it is often the first thing a customer sees of you.
Citations
Your name, address and phone number listed the same way across the directories Google checks you against. Mismatched listings make it less sure where you are.
On-page work
Titles, headings, copy and internal links on the pages that target each search, so Google can tell which page answers which question.
Technical fixes
Indexing, page speed, broken links and structured data. The faults that stop good pages ranking, found and fixed.
Reviews
A direct link for customers to leave a Google review, and a routine for asking. On Grow, I draft a reply to every new review for you to approve.
Website updates
Small text and image changes to your site are included, so you are not paying a developer separately to change your opening hours. Larger changes come with Grow.
Monthly report
Where you rank for the searches agreed at the start, and the calls and enquiries that came from search. If the number is not moving, I change the plan rather than the report.
Both run month to month after the first. Start on Rank and move up when it makes sense, or move down if it stops making sense.
£250a month
For a business in one town that needs to hold its place in the map results for its main services.
£500a month
For a business that wants to rank for more of its services, and in the towns around it as well as its own.
The searches are agreed at the start and stay on the report every month, so you can see whether they move. No setup fee, and no VAT.
The groundwork goes first, because everything after it depends on it.
Map results can move within weeks once the Business Profile and citations are right. The main results take longer for competitive searches: expect months rather than weeks. After the review I will tell you which to expect for your searches.
One month minimum, then month to month.
No. Nobody controls Google's rankings, and anyone who guarantees a position is guessing. What I commit to is the work in the plan and a report you can check against it.
You do. The Business Profile, the listings, the changes to your site and the reports all stay yours.
Yes, up or down, from the following month.
Usually not. If the site is what is holding the rankings back, the review will say so, and a rebuild is quoted separately as Website Design.
Send me your site and your postcode. You get a short written review of where the enquiries are leaking, and what I would do first.
