Who this is for
Businesses that get most of their work from people nearby — trades, clinics, salons, restaurants, solicitors, accountants, garages. If someone would search for you with a place name attached, this is the page.
What is going wrong
You know you should be higher. You do not know why you are not.
You have a website. You might have a Google listing. Someone set them up once. Meanwhile a competitor two miles away with a worse website and a worse service sits above you, and nobody can tell you what they did differently. Usually the answer is boring: they have more reviews, their listing is filled in, and their site says where they are.
What we do
Concretely.
Not “strategic alignment”. Things that either happened or did not.
- Google Business Profile completed properly — categories, services, photos, opening hours, Q&A
- A review system that runs itself: the ask, the trigger, the channel, and responses to every one
- Citations built and corrected across ten directories, with identical name, address and phone
- On-page work: title tags, headings, and content that says what you do and where
- Local landing pages, but only where there is something real to say about a town
- A monthly report that fits on one page and shows calls, not impressions
The first 30 days
So you know what you are buying.
- 01
Week 1: audit. What is broken, what is missing, what is costing you calls right now.
- 02
Week 2: the Google Business Profile, top to bottom. Usually the biggest single gain.
- 03
Week 3: citations and NAP consistency. Dull, and it moves the needle.
- 04
Week 4: the review engine goes live and starts collecting.
What it costs
From £395 a month
Three-month minimum. No setup fee. Cancel after that with a month's notice.
Straight answers
Questions people actually ask
- How long does local SEO take to work?
- Expect three to six months for meaningful movement in the map pack, not weeks. Google weighs proximity, prominence and relevance. Proximity is fixed — you are where you are — so the work is on the other two, and it compounds rather than switches on.
- Can you guarantee I will rank first?
- No, and neither can anyone else. Ranking depends partly on where the searcher is standing, which nobody controls. What can be promised is that the things within reach get done properly and you can see what changed.
- Why has my business disappeared from Google Maps?
- The most common causes are a suspended or unverified Google Business Profile, a recent address or category change, or duplicate listings competing with each other. It is usually fixable, and usually faster to fix than to rank from scratch.
- Do I need a new website for this to work?
- Often no. A slow or thin site holds you back, but the Google Business Profile and reviews do the heavy lifting in the map pack, and both work regardless of what your website looks like. We will tell you honestly if the site is the bottleneck.
