Local SEO that makes the phone ring.
Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing a local customer sees. I work on the profile, your citations, your reviews and your location pages, and I measure it in calls from GBP Performance.
Local SEO is the priority if
- You're missing from the map pack for searches in your own city
- Calls and direction requests from your profile are flat or falling
- Your name, address or phone differ across directories
- Competitors with fewer reviews rank above you
- Fake or policy-breaking reviews are dragging your rating down
What local SEO covers

Local SEO questions
Other services
How long does local SEO take to show results?
Profile changes can move map pack positions within weeks. Citations and location pages usually take a few months. I report month against the same month last year so seasonal swings don't fool anyone.
Can you remove bad Google reviews?
Google only removes reviews that break its policies, such as fake, duplicate or conflict-of-interest reviews. I report them through Google's official process and follow each case to a decision. On a recent project two were removed for a Queensland repair business.
Do I need a website for local SEO?
The profile can rank on its own, but a site with good location pages and matching details makes it stronger and gives AI engines more to cite.
Do you work with multi-location businesses?
Yes. Each location gets its own profile work, citations and page, with shared fixes rolled out across all of them at once.
Send me your site. I'll tell you what to fix first.
Hire me on Upwork for a fixed-price audit or ongoing work, or email me the URL and the searches you want to win. I read every message myself.
