The problems we solve
What stops local customers finding you
These are the local SEO problems we see most often.
No Google Business Profile, or a neglected one
Missing categories, out-of-date hours, no photos and unanswered reviews make it harder to appear and easier to be passed over.
Details that don’t match
A different phone number, address or business name on your website, your profile and directories can confuse customers and search engines.
One page trying to cover everything
A single services page rarely explains what you do in each area well enough to rank for it.
Thin copy-and-paste town pages
Pages that only swap the town name add little and can hold a site back. Useful local pages need real detail.
Few recent reviews
Reviews help customers choose. We give practical guidance on asking for them, in line with Google’s policies.
No way to see what’s working
Without tracking, it is hard to tell whether local work is paying off. We set up reporting you can understand.

Questions
Good to know
What is local SEO?
Local SEO is the work that helps people near you, or in the areas you serve, find your business when they search. It covers your Google Business Profile, your website’s location and service pages, consistent business details and reviews.
How much do local SEO services cost?
Local SEO is part of our monthly SEO plans: £500 per month alongside a Web Builder Agency website, or £750 per month as a standalone service for an existing website. Scope is agreed in your proposal before work starts.
Do I need a Google Business Profile?
If you meet customers in person, at your premises or at theirs, a Google Business Profile is usually worth having. Businesses that visit customers can set it up as a service-area business without showing a street address. We set it up or improve it where it is appropriate for your business.
Can you guarantee a place in the map results?
No. Nobody can honestly guarantee search positions. Google decides what to show, based on things such as relevance, distance and prominence. We work on the parts you can influence and report on what changes.
Do I need a separate page for every town?
Not always. Thin pages that only swap the town name rarely help and can do harm. We create pages for areas where you can say something genuinely useful, and cover the rest on your main service pages.
How long does local SEO take?
Some fixes, such as correcting business details or improving your profile, can be done in the first month. Building visibility takes longer and depends on your competition. We agree priorities up front and show progress in a plain-English monthly report.
Do you work with clients in the United States?
Yes. SEO, including local SEO, is open to clients everywhere, including the United States. Website design and build projects are only available to clients outside the United States, because our build contracts are built around UK law and we can’t yet meet the separate US legal requirements.
