Who it’s for
Businesses that serve customers in specific places
Local SEO matters most when customers choose a provider nearby — contractors, clinics, law firms, restaurants, resorts, schools and any business with a service area. Google decides local rankings mainly on relevance (how well you match the search), distance (how close you are) and prominence (how well known and reviewed you are).
I’ve built local ranking strategies for US service contractors and for businesses and organizations across the Philippines, including local government.

- A local SEO audit of your profile, site and competitors

FAQ
Local SEO: common questions
Why do I need local SEO?
It increases your visibility for searches in your area, helps you outrank local competitors and brings more calls and inquiries from customers who are ready to buy — the online equivalent of being listed first in the phone book.
Do I need a physical address to rank in Google Maps?
You need a real business location or a defined service area that meets Google Business Profile guidelines. Service-area businesses can hide their address and list the areas they serve instead.
How long does local SEO take?
Profile and citation fixes can show movement within weeks; competitive local rankings typically take 3 to 6 months of consistent work.
Can you help with reviews?
Yes — with a simple process to ask satisfied customers for reviews and guidance on responding. I never buy or fake reviews; that breaks Google’s policies and puts your profile at risk.
