Why it matters now

46% of all Google searches are local. When someone searches "near me" or includes a location, Google shows a local pack — the map and three listings at the top of results. If you're not in that pack, you're invisible to local customers. Local SEO gets you there.

Frequently asked questions

Local SEO focuses on ranking in location-based searches — the local pack, Google Maps, and "near me" queries. It relies heavily on Google Business Profile, local citations, and reviews, whereas traditional SEO focuses on organic rankings for broader keywords.

Reviews are one of the top local ranking factors. Both the quantity and recency of reviews matter. A steady stream of positive reviews signals to Google that your business is active and trusted. I help you build a review generation system that's sustainable.

Local SEO can show results faster than traditional SEO — often within 2–3 months for Google Business Profile optimization. Citation building and review generation compound over time. Competitive local markets may take longer.
