Local SEO · Google Business Profile & Maps
Be the first pin on the map.
When someone nearby searches for what you do, Google shows three businesses on a map. Those three get the calls. I get you into that top three, and keep you there.
The map pack
Three spots.
Most of the calls.
For “near me” searches, the map results sit above everything else. People tap Call or Directions right there, often without ever visiting a website.
Getting in comes down to three things Google weighs: how relevant your profile is, how close you are, and how trusted you look, which mostly means reviews and activity.

FAQ
Local SEO,
explained.
Local SEO is part of every monthly plan. See plans, read about SEO + AI search, or book a call.
01What is the Google map pack?
It's the box of three businesses Google shows on a map for local searches like "plumber near me" or "coffee in Stowe". It sits above the regular results, and people often call or get directions straight from it.
02What is a Google Business Profile?
It's your free listing on Google Search and Maps: your hours, phone, photos, reviews and posts. It's usually the first thing a local customer sees, before your website.
03How long does local SEO take?
Fixing your profile and listings can help within a few weeks. Climbing into the top three usually takes two to four months of steady posts and new reviews, depending on your competition.
04Can you get me more Google reviews?
Yes, the honest way. I set up a simple link and message you can send to happy customers, and reply to every review for you. Google doesn't allow paying for or filtering reviews, so I never do either.
05I don't have a storefront. Can I still show up?
Yes. Service-area businesses like plumbers, cleaners and vacation rental managers can hide their address and list the towns they serve instead.
06What does it cost?
Local SEO is included in every monthly plan, starting with Foundation at $575 a month. Month to month, no long contracts.
