Learn moreA plumbing company in Hamilton, OH had a Google Business Profile but was not appearing in local pack results for any of their target keywords.
GBP was missing service categories, had no posts in 2 years, only 12 reviews, and the website had no location pages or local schema markup.
After optimizing GBP, building 40+ citations, implementing a review system, and creating 8 service area pages, they now rank in the local pack for 23 keywords and receive 40+ calls per month from Google.

“Local SEO is the highest-ROI marketing channel for most service businesses. When someone searches 'emergency plumber near me' at 10pm, they are ready to hire immediately. That is not a lead you nurture - that is a customer you win or lose based on whether you show up.”
