The work
Everything that shapes local visibility.
Local search rewards businesses that are relevant, nearby and trusted. We work on the signals you can influence and show you what changed.
What people nearby search for, and what the businesses showing up are doing.
Your name, address and phone consistent across the directories and listings that matter.
Submission or correction actions on relevant directories. Acceptance and indexing by third parties isn’t guaranteed.
Pages that make clear where you work and what you offer there.
A simple, policy-friendly process for asking for and responding to reviews.
Visibility snapshots for your agreed keywords, and a plain-language summary of the work.
