Two Channels, One Strategy

Local Search Has Changed Forever

Customers find local businesses in two very different ways now. You need to win at both.

📍

Traditional Local Search

Google Maps 3-Pack

When someone searches "boutique near me" or "coffee shop downtown," Google shows a map with 3 results. Being in that 3-pack is the single highest-ROI real estate in local marketing. 76% of local searches result in a visit within 24 hours.

Key ranking signals we optimize:

GBP category and attribute completeness
Review count, velocity, and sentiment
Citation consistency across directories
Photo freshness and engagement
Posts and Q&A activity signals

🤖

Next-Gen AI Search

AI-Powered Recommendations

Google's AI Overview, ChatGPT, and Gemini increasingly answer "what's a good [type of store] near me?" with specific business recommendations. This is the fastest-growing local discovery channel — and almost nobody is optimizing for it yet.

AI recommendation factors we target:

Structured data (Schema.org LocalBusiness)
GBP description written for AI parsing
Review language and topic diversity
Knowledge panel completeness
Website entity signals alignment

Local SEO Questions

Most clients see measurable improvement in Maps rankings within 30–60 days for low-competition markets. More competitive areas typically show significant movement at 60–90 days. AI recommendation visibility often improves faster, within 30 days.

A website significantly strengthens local SEO, but GBP optimization alone (without a website) still produces meaningful results. If you have a Shopify store, your website is already there — we just align its signals.

It's a proprietary tool we built that scans search result positions across hundreds of local query variations for your business category. It gives us a baseline position map before we start, and we re-run it monthly to track movement.

Yes — the Growth and Authority packages cover up to 2 and 3 locations respectively. For 4+ locations, contact us for a custom quote.

Yes, in the Growth and Authority packages we monitor and respond to all new reviews following brand-voice guidelines you approve upfront.

Traditional SEO targets Google's ranking algorithm. AI optimization targets the language model's understanding of your business — which means structured data, entity authority, review content quality, and GBP description language specifically designed to be parsed and surfaced by AI systems.
