Brands I've worked with:
Why Local SEO Is the Difference Between 'Open' and 'Out Of Business'
Local SEO (local search engine optimization) is the process of optimizing your online presence so your business appears prominently when local customers search for products or services near them.
Think of it as the digital roadmap that helps nearby audiences find you via Google Maps, Google Search, and other local directories.
For example, when someone searches “coffee shop near me” or “plumber in Dallas,” Google pulls businesses with optimized Google Business Profiles and strong local SEO strategies. If your business isn’t on this list, you're throwing money away...to your competitors.
Whether you're targeting the Gold Coast, Auckland, the Dallas-Fort Worth area, or anywhere across the world, my expert local SEO services help ensure that your business appears in front of the right people at the right moment.

Every successful local SEO campaign begins with your Google My Business listing (now called Google Business Profile).
I help optimize your Google Business Profile with complete, keyword-rich info, proper categories, location tags, and engaging content that helps search engines connect your business with nearby customers.

I will optimize your website to ensure it is geo-targeted and structured to appear in local search results.
This includes essential on-page SEO like optimized title tags, meta descriptions, schema markup, strategic use of local keywords, and landing pages tailored to locations you serve.
Local Link Building & Digital PR
Local link building is part of local SEO that’s often ignored.
I identify high-quality local domains, blogs, and online news outlets for authentic backlink generation designed to improve domain authority and local search rankings.
Local Listings & Citations
I build consistent local citations across key local directories, such as Google Maps, Bing Places, and Apple Maps, among others.
A clean and consistent business listing profile improves trust and boosts your local SEO ranking factor across search engines. My system builds citations consistently and with great accuracy.

How Local SEO Can Get Your Phone Ringing
You Show Up Where Customers Are Already Searching
When someone nearby types “plumber near me” or “best roofer in [city],” Local SEO ensures you—not your competitors—appear front and center.
The higher your visibility on Google Maps and search results, the more phone calls and quote requests you get from ready-to-buy customers.
You Capture More High-Intent Leads
Unlike social media or ads where people are just browsing, local searches come from people actively looking to hire today.
With Local SEO, you attract high-intent leads who are ready to book, not just browse.
You Build Instant Trust and Credibility
People trust what Google shows them first. A complete, optimized Google Business Profile with great reviews signals credibility.
Local SEO helps you earn that placement, making prospects far more likely to click “Call Now.”
You Dominate Your Local Market, Even Against Bigger Brands
You don’t need a massive ad budget to win locally.
By optimizing for your city and service area, Local SEO gives small businesses the power to outrank big competitors and own the local market share.
Local SEO Checklist
This checklist covers the essential factors that help your business rank higher in local searches and attract more customers from your area. Each step ensures your online presence is consistent, credible, and optimized for local visibility.
NAP Consistency
Your business Name, Address, and Phone number must appear the same across all platforms: Google, Bing Places, Apple Maps, directories, your website, and even LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude. Inconsistent NAP details can confuse both customers and search engines, hurting your local rankings
Google Business Profile
Optimizing your GBP improves your visibility in Maps and local search results. We help you enhance your listing with accurate info, engaging photos, and regular updates to drive more calls and visits.
Local Citations & Links
Building citations and earning backlinks from trusted local directories and websites strengthens your business’s credibility. These signals tell Google that your business is relevant and active in your community.
Local Business Schema
We implement local business Schema markup to give search engines structured data about your business, like location, hours, and services. This helps improve your search appearance with rich results and better visibility.
Location-Specific Content
Creating city- or neighborhood-based content helps you connect with customers in your target area. From service pages to local blog posts, I can write content that speaks directly to local search intent.

Frequently Asked Questions
Local SEO focuses specifically on improving your visibility within a geographic area by optimizing your local map presence, business profile, and local directory listings. It uses many of the same principles as general search engine optimization but targets searches for local intent like “near me” or “[service] in [city].”
If you're not appearing in Google’s local pack (the top three map listings) or on Google Maps for area-based searches, you're still missing out on high-converting local organic traffic. Local SEO helps you dominate those local search rankings.
Absolutely. Outsourcing your local SEO to me will give you expert results with more flexibility, personal attention, and faster turnaround - all without the high costs that come with big SEO companies.
Local SEO usually shows early traction within 60-90 days, especially if your business already has a digital footprint. Full impact may take 4-6 months depending on your competition, website authority, and current local presence.
My standardized packages will fit any local business at any stage of growth.
Costs vary depending on the services included (like content, citations, link building, and audits). For a quick reference, visit my blog post on rates for SEOs in the Philippines.
Yes. In fact, structured multi-location optimization is one of my strengths. I regularly work with chains, franchises, and agencies needing scalable SEO solutions across different cities or regions.
Blogging is one of the best ways to build topical authority and shows Google you’re an expert in your field. We don’t need to publish blogs en masse - one well-written blog post per week does wonders, too!
