Local SEO — Maps, Citations & Area Pages

Own the map for every town you serve.

The problem

You show up in your own town, but not the six other places you actually work. Or you're stuck in the map pack behind three competitors with worse reviews.

What it costs

Every position you drop in the local pack costs roughly 30% of the calls. Slipping from #1 to #4 halves your enquiries overnight.

The Lead Hack fix

City-hub + neighbourhood spoke architecture, NAP-consistent citations, review velocity, GBP optimisation and localised on-page signals — the way Google actually ranks local businesses in 2026.

FAQs

Do I need a separate page per town?

For competitive services (roofing, driveways, landscaping) — yes, and it needs unique local proof, not spun text.

How long until I rank in the map pack?

Most trades see movement in 60–90 days once GBP, citations and localised on-page content are aligned; competitive cities take 4–6 months.

Will local SEO work if I serve multiple towns?

Yes — we build a hub-and-spoke of location pages backed by service-area GBP settings and localised reviews so each town has its own ranking signal.
