What is local SEO?

Local SEO is everything that decides whether you show up when someone nearby searches for what you do.

  1. The map results

    The few businesses Google shows on the map, picked for each searcher’s spot.

  2. Your listing

    Your Google Business Profile: category, hours, photos, reviews and replies.

  3. A page for each area

    Where your search needs it, a real page for an area you work, with real jobs from there.

  4. Reviews

    Recent reviews, and replies to every one of them.

  5. Your details matching

    Name, phone, website and hours the same on every directory.

What does your team do for local search?

Your team works on the things Google weighs for local results, every day.

How your Business Profile is run
  1. A page for each area and service

    Only where your search needs it, each one written for that area with real jobs. Never copy-and-paste pages.

  2. Your Business Profile, run for you

    Weekly posts, your job photos and your details kept right.

  3. Reviews answered the same day

    Every review gets a reply, and recent customers get a neutral ask for one.

  4. Technical fixes from Search Console

    Problems fixed as Google reports them, with Google and Bing told what changed.

  5. Work picked by the enquiries it should bring

    The fixes that should bring the most calls go first.

Questions

How can I do local SEO myself?

Start with your Google Business Profile: the right category, your hours, recent job photos, and a reply to every review. Then make sure your name, phone and website match on the directories. The harder parts are a page for each area and keeping up with Google’s changes. What SEO costs, DIY to agency

Is SEO legitimate?

Yes, when it’s honest work: real pages, a well-run listing, genuine reviews and a site that works. Be wary of anyone who promises a guaranteed #1 on Google.

How long does local SEO take?

We don’t promise a timeline. Your team gives each of the bigger changes 28 days and tells you whether it worked, so you see progress change by change.

Do I need a page for every area?

Only where your search needs it. Each area page is written for that area, with real jobs from there. Copy-and-paste pages don’t help.

Does this work outside Australia?

Yes. We work with small local businesses wherever they are. Prices are in Australian dollars.

What does it cost?

A$749 a month for your website and your SEO team together, with no build fee and no lock-in. See pricing

See your new homepage before you spend a cent

We design your new homepage and a report on where you show up today, usually within a few days. No charge, no commitment, and we’ll tell you honestly if we’re not the right fit.
