Overview

When someone in your area searches 'plumber near me', 'best pizza Dripping Springs', or 'dentist 78620', Google shows three results inside a map at the top of the page before the regular results even start. That is the local pack, and ranking inside it is the difference between a steady stream of bookings and a quiet phone. We get you into that pack and keep you there. Google Maps SEO is what we do best.

Our Google Maps SEO service rebuilds your Google Business Profile from the ground up: complete and consistent business information, properly chosen primary and secondary categories, weekly Google Posts, structured photo uploads, review acquisition and response, and the local citation work that signals to Google that you're a legitimate, active business at the address you say you are. It is unglamorous, methodical work — and it is the single highest-ROI marketing investment a local business can make.

Pricing & What Affects It

From $550/month

Standard plans start at $550/month and cover one location. Multi-location pricing is per-additional-location at a reduced rate. There is no setup fee — the first month includes the full audit and rebuild. Most clients see meaningful local pack movement within 60-90 days. We don't promise #1 rankings (nobody honest does) but we do publish the monthly map-grid report so you can see exactly where you sit for every keyword we target.

How We Set It Up

  1. 1

    Audit & rebuild

    We pull your current Google Business Profile, identify gaps (missing categories, weak descriptions, photo gaps, citation inconsistencies), and rebuild the profile against current Google guidelines.

  2. 2

    Citation cleanup & build

    We audit your business listings across 40+ directories (Yelp, BBB, Apple Maps, industry-specific sites). Inconsistent name/address/phone gets cleaned up; missing listings get built.

  3. 3

    Content & review cadence

    Weekly Google Posts, monthly photo uploads, and an automated review request campaign go live. We handle the work; you approve the schedule.

  4. 4

    Monthly tracking & iteration

    We track 10 keywords on a 5×5 map grid each month so you can see exactly where you rank from every part of your service area, and we adjust strategy based on what's moving.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast does this work?+

Most local pack movement happens in the 60-90 day window after a full rebuild. Some clients see jumps in 30 days, others take longer in competitive metros. We publish the monthly map-grid report so progress is never a guess.

Can you guarantee #1?+

No, and anyone who does is lying. Google's local algorithm weights distance, prominence, and relevance — we can't change a searcher's distance from your storefront. We can move every other lever, and we do.

Do you handle bad reviews?+

We draft responses for every review (good or bad) and you approve before it goes live. We won't help suppress legitimate complaints — that's not how trust works.

What if I have multiple locations?+

Each location is treated as its own profile with its own strategy. Multi-location pricing is reduced per additional site.
