Local SEO services
Help nearby customers find and choose your business.
When someone searches for what you offer in their area, they need to find accurate information and a clear reason to contact you. Our local SEO services bring your website, Google Business Profile and business listings together to make that easier.
Based in North Shields, we work with businesses across Newcastle and the wider North East to improve their visibility in Google Maps and local search, with a focus on enquiries that matter to the business.
Local search support for the way you do business
A shop welcoming customers through the door has different needs from a trade business travelling to appointments. A business with several locations needs each one to be easy to find and clearly explained.
We start with how your business operates: where you work, which services you want to grow and how customers contact you. That helps us focus on relevant searches and realistic opportunities in the areas you serve.
We have worked with businesses whose websites and profiles did not fully explain what they offered. Making that information clearer gives potential customers a better starting point when deciding whom to contact.
What our local SEO campaigns include
Our initial three-month campaign brings together the main parts of your local search presence. We agree the priorities around your existing website, business profile and locations.
- A review of your local visibility. We assess your website, listings and search performance to identify gaps and establish a starting point.
- Local search and competitor research. We look at how people search for your services and which businesses appear for those searches.
- Google Business Profile support. We help with setup or optimisation, including accurate business details, appropriate categories, services and useful profile content.
- Consistent business listings. We check key details across relevant directories and address missing or inconsistent information.
- Website improvements. We refine service and location content so visitors can understand what you offer, where you operate and how to get in touch.
- Customer research. We use what you know about your customers to make the content more helpful and relevant to their questions.
Make it easier for customers to choose you
Being found is only part of the job. Someone comparing businesses also needs to know whether you provide the right service, cover their area and are available when they need you.
Clear service descriptions, accurate opening hours, useful photographs and straightforward contact options help answer those questions. Your website and business profile should support each other, rather than leave customers to piece the information together.
Reviews can also help people understand what working with you is like. We can discuss a practical way to request genuine feedback from customers and keep responding to it as part of your routine.
How we measure progress
We agree what a useful result looks like before judging progress. Depending on your business and the tracking available, that may include relevant calls, enquiry forms or bookings.
We review those results alongside website search data and Google Business Profile activity. Rankings help us understand visibility, but they are not the whole picture: local results vary by the searcher’s location, and more views do not automatically mean more customers.
Your feedback matters too. Knowing whether enquiries are for the right services and areas helps us refine the work.
How much does local SEO cost?
Our standard local SEO package starts at £1,500–£2,000 + VAT for a three-month campaign. The cost depends on your business size, number of locations, and any special needs, such as content creation or advanced citations.
We agree the scope before work starts, so you understand the priorities, what is included and where we may need input from you or your website developer.
Questions about local SEO
Do I need a shop or office that customers visit?
Not necessarily. Local SEO can also support businesses that travel to customers. Google Business Profile eligibility and address settings depend on how you operate, so we check those details rather than assume every business should display an address.
Can you guarantee a top position in Google Maps?
No. Results depend on factors including relevance, the searcher’s location and how well established your business is. We focus on the improvements we can make and report honestly on progress.
What happens after the three-month campaign?
We review what has changed and agree the next priorities. Some businesses need ongoing support; others can manage routine updates themselves. Accurate listings, fresh customer feedback and useful website content still need attention as your business and competitors change.
Can you help a business with several locations?
Yes. We look at each location’s services, website content and eligible business profile, while keeping the wider brand consistent. The scope depends on how many locations you have and the work each one needs.
