When someone in your area searches for what you do, you should be the business they call. We get local companies ranking in the map pack and on page one, so search turns into phone calls and booked jobs instead of a traffic report.
Free audit. No contract to see it. We'll tell you what's holding your rankings back.
B2C SEO is search engine optimisation for businesses that sell directly to consumers. It focuses on getting found when a person nearby searches for a service or product they need right now, usually on a phone, often with the words "near me" attached. Success is measured in calls, bookings, and orders rather than traffic.
The mechanics differ from B2B in one important way: the person searching is usually the person buying, and the decision happens in minutes rather than months.
That makes three things matter far more than they do elsewhere: your Google Business Profile, your reviews, and whether your site loads fast enough on a phone that someone doesn't just hit back and call the next result.
Most clients need one of these. Some need two. We'll tell you which on the audit call rather than selling you all three.
For businesses that serve a city or a radius. The goal is simple: rank in the map pack when someone nearby searches for what you do.
Best for: plumbers, dentists, HVAC, contractors, clinics, restaurants, med spas
For online stores where category and product pages are the revenue engine, not the blog.
Best for: online retailers, D2C brands, multi-product stores
For consumer brands competing across the country, where there's no map pack to win and the fight is on organic results.
Best for: franchises, multi-location brands, national consumer services
Call tracking and form attribution come standard, so you see which searches produced actual business. Rankings and traffic are supporting detail, never the headline.
Month to month. If the work isn't producing, you leave. We'd rather earn the next month than lock you into twelve.
No account manager relaying messages to a team you never meet. The person on your calls is the person in your account.
Voice search, "near me" queries, and Google's AI answers all pull from structured, well-marked-up pages. We build for that, not for a 2018 checklist.
Local results usually take two to four months. Anyone promising page one in thirty days is either guessing or about to do something that gets you penalised.
A monthly summary you can read in five minutes: what we did, what it produced, what's next. No 40-page PDF nobody opens.
Search behaviour changes by trade. Someone looking for an emergency plumber searches differently from someone researching a cosmetic dentist. We build the strategy around how your customers actually search.
Not listed? The approach works in any consumer market where customers start with a search. Tell us what you do and we'll show you what people in your area are searching for.
We're based in Chicago and work with businesses across the United States. Local search behaves differently in every market, so we build each campaign around the competition, search volume, and customer behaviour where you actually operate.
Where we work most, and where we know the competitive landscape in detail.
Fast-expanding metros where local search competition is still light enough to win quickly.
High-volume, high-competition metros. Longer timelines, larger upside.
Operating somewhere else? Local SEO doesn't require a local agency, it requires one that understands how local search works. We serve businesses in every state. Tell us where your customers are and we'll show you what they're searching for.
We look at where you currently rank, what your competitors are doing, the state of your Google Business Profile, and what's technically holding the site back. You get the findings whether or not you hire us.
Week 1We map the searches your customers actually use, pick the ones worth winning, and agree a plan: which pages get built, which get fixed, and what order it happens in.
Week 2Google Business Profile work, service and location pages, technical fixes, citations, reviews, and content. This is the bulk of the engagement and it runs continuously rather than in bursts.
Month 1 onwardTrack what's producing calls, expand what works, cut what doesn't, and widen into new search terms and service areas as rankings hold.
OngoingThese are the mechanisms. What any specific business sees depends on its market, competition, and starting position.
Across the US market, small business SEO typically runs from a few hundred dollars a month for a single-location local campaign to several thousand for competitive multi-location or ecommerce work. Price tracks scope: how many locations, how competitive your area is, and whether pages need building or just fixing. We quote after the audit, once we know what the work actually involves, rather than before.
Google Business Profile improvements can move local rankings within weeks. Meaningful local SEO results usually show in two to four months, and competitive markets or national campaigns take longer. Anyone promising page one in thirty days is either guessing or planning something that will get you penalised later.
Local SEO is the work of getting a business found in searches tied to a place, including the Google map pack. It centres on your Google Business Profile, consistent business information across the web, reviews, and pages built around the services and areas you cover. It's what makes you appear when someone searches your service plus "near me".
Very likely. We work across home services, health and dental, beauty and wellness, legal, real estate, hospitality, automotive, ecommerce, and education. The industries section above lists the trades we work in most often, and the approach applies to any consumer business whose customers start with a search.
Three things drive map pack rankings: relevance, distance, and prominence. In practice that means a complete and correctly categorised Google Business Profile, consistent business details everywhere you're listed, a steady flow of genuine reviews, and pages on your site that clearly cover each service and area you serve. Distance you can't change; the other two you can.
The usual causes, in rough order of frequency: an incomplete or wrongly categorised Google Business Profile, inconsistent business details across directories, too few recent reviews, no dedicated pages for the services and areas you cover, or a site that's slow on mobile. The audit identifies which of these applies to you.
No. Work is month to month and you can stop whenever you want. SEO takes months to compound, so we'd rather earn the next month than hold you to a year you regret by month three.
A review of your current rankings, your Google Business Profile, your top competitors, and the technical issues holding your site back, plus the specific searches your customers use that you're not showing up for. It's yours to keep whether or not you work with us.
Yes. We're Chicago-based and work with businesses across the United States, in every state and most major cities. Local SEO doesn't require a local agency; it requires an agency that understands how local search works.
B2C search is fast, local, and mobile: the person searching is usually the person buying, and the decision happens in minutes. B2B search is slower, involves a committee, and rewards comparison and pricing content over map pack visibility. If you sell to businesses, our B2B SEO services are built for that instead.
Tell us what you do and where you do it. We'll audit your rankings, your Google Business Profile, and your competitors, then show you exactly what's holding you back and what it would take to fix.
Free, no obligation, and the audit is yours whatever you decide.
