Local SEO

Local SEO That Gets You Found by Customers Nearby

When someone searches “near me” or types a service and a city, the businesses in the map pack and top organic results get the call. The rest get ignored. I help local businesses earn those spots and keep them.

I have worked on local SEO in competitive US markets and for Australian businesses. Because I am also a web developer, I do not stop at recommendations. I build the location pages, fix the technical issues and implement the schema myself.

Who This Is For

  • Service businesses such as law firms, trades, clinics and home services
  • Multi-location businesses that need scalable location pages
  • Businesses in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand targeting competitive local markets
  • Agencies that need a local SEO specialist for client accounts

How It Works

  1. Audit. I review your Google Business Profile, citations, website, competitors and current local rankings.
  2. Plan. You get a prioritized plan in plain English, with quick wins first.
  3. Implement. I make the changes: profile updates, citation cleanup, page builds, schema and technical fixes.
  4. Grow. Ongoing link building, content and review momentum.
  5. Report. Monthly reporting on rankings, visibility and leads, not vanity metrics.

Why Work With Me

  • 16+ years in SEO, including local campaigns since the early days of local search
  • Hands-on implementation. I build the pages and fix the site myself, so there is no waiting on a developer.
  • Experience in US and Australian markets, including competitive local niches and legal-sector sites
  • A direct line to the person doing the work, with no account-manager layer in between

Pricing

Local SEO from $450/month

Price depends on the number of locations, how competitive your market is and how much content and link building is needed. All prices are in USD, and every project gets a written quote before work starts. I take on clients in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does local SEO take to show results?

Google Business Profile and citation fixes can show movement within weeks. Competitive markets usually take three to six months of consistent work to see strong, stable map-pack and organic gains.

Do I need a physical address to rank locally?

Not always. Service-area businesses can rank without displaying an address, but the strategy is different. I will recommend the right setup for your situation.

Can you help with multiple locations?

Yes. I build scalable location page structures and manage each Google Business Profile so that locations support each other instead of competing.

Do you work with businesses in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand?

Yes. Most of my work is with overseas businesses and agencies. I work remotely and schedule calls to suit your time zone, whether you are in North America, the UK or Australasia.
