Everything that moves
the needle locally.
Google Business Profile
Full GBP optimisation: categories, services, photos, attributes, Q&A, and a posting strategy. A properly managed GBP is one of the fastest wins in local SEO.
Local Citation Building
Consistent NAP (name, address, phone) data across key directories: Yelp, Yellow Pages, BBB, and industry-specific platforms. Inconsistencies confuse Google and suppress rankings.
Review Strategy
A system for generating more genuine reviews and responding to them effectively. Review volume and quality are significant local ranking factors, and they build buyer trust.
Local Landing Pages
Geo-targeted content pages built around local search intent ("service + Calgary" keywords) with proper local schema markup to reinforce your geographic relevance to Google.
Local Link Building
Acquiring relevant local mentions and links from Calgary-area publications, directories, and community sources, signals that reinforce your local authority with search engines.
Local Rank Tracking
Monthly reporting on where you rank for your local keywords, how your GBP is performing, and what's moving, tracked at the Calgary city level, not just nationally.
Local SEO done right
in four steps.
Local audit
We audit your GBP, current map pack visibility, citation accuracy, and review profile, so we know exactly where you stand and what's costing you rankings.
GBP optimisation
Full GBP build-out: categories, services, attributes, photos, descriptions, and a posting cadence. Most profiles are under-optimised and leaving visibility on the table.
Citation & content
Consistent NAP data across key directories, local landing pages with proper schema, and review generation systems that keep your credibility growing.
Track & refine
Monthly reporting on map pack positions, GBP views, click-to-call rates, and direction requests. You'll always know what's moving and why.
Local SEO questions,
answered plainly.
How long until I appear in the local map pack?
It varies significantly based on current authority, competition level, and how much work is needed. Some businesses see map pack appearances within 4–8 weeks of GBP optimisation. Others take longer if competitors are well-established.
Do I need a physical address to do local SEO?
Not necessarily. Service-area businesses (like trades, consultants, or mobile services) can set a service area on their GBP instead of showing a physical address. The strategy differs slightly but local SEO is still very much achievable.
My GBP is already set up. Do I still need help?
Having a GBP and having an optimised GBP are very different things. Most business profiles are missing key categories, have incomplete service descriptions, few photos, and no posting activity, all of which leave ranking potential uncaptured.
Can you help with negative reviews?
We can help you respond professionally and build up positive review volume over time, but we don't remove legitimate reviews. The strategy is always to build credibility, not suppress criticism.
