Local SEO FAQs
It helps you show up when people nearby search for what you sell. That means a complete Google Business Profile, consistent details across directories, local pages, reviews and local links.
Google says local results are based on relevance, distance and prominence. You can't change distance, so we work on the other two: a complete, accurate profile, reviews, and a strong website and local mentions.
No. Service-area businesses such as trades can hide their address and show the areas they cover instead.
We set up a simple way to ask customers and reply to every review. We never buy reviews or offer incentives, because Google's rules ban it.
It depends on how many locations and areas you cover. We give you a fixed monthly price in writing after a short call.
Profile fixes can make a difference within weeks. Competitive towns take longer, because reviews and links build up over time.
Yes. We're based in Melton Mowbray and work for local businesses across the UK, mostly remotely.
