Local SEO
Get found by the people already searching for you.
Three packages with published prices and stated scope, for businesses across Chatham-Kent & Southwestern Ontario. No ranking guarantees, because nobody can honestly offer one.
Your profile does the heavy lifting
For most local searches the map result appears before any website. Getting the Business Profile right is the highest-return work available, and most businesses have completed about a third of it.
Your site has to back it up
Search engines read the site behind the profile. Speed, mobile, service pages, local schema and honest service-area content all feed what the map result is willing to show.
Reputation compounds
Reviews, local links and consistent listings build slowly and then keep paying. This is the part that cannot be bought in a month, which is exactly why it is worth having.
01 / Packages
Three levels. Every price published.
Setup is one-time and covers the audit and foundation work. The monthly fee covers the ongoing work that compounds — content, reviews, links and reporting.

No ranking guarantees. No ranking guarantees. Search visibility depends on competition, location, website quality, reputation, reviews, content, and Google's own systems. We report the actions taken and the inputs we can measure.

Questions about local SEO
- How much does local SEO cost in Southwestern Ontario?
- Our packages run from $199 setup and $149 a month for SEO Foundation, to $649 and $549 a month for Growth Local SEO. Managed local SEO for a small business generally sits between $150 and $600 a month depending on scope; below that, very little skilled time is being spent on your account.
- How long does local SEO take to show results?
- Google Business Profile and category fixes often show in two to four weeks. Reviews, citations and content compound over three to six months. Month one is foundation work and usually looks like nothing has changed, because search engines have not yet recrawled and reassessed the site.
- Can you guarantee first-page rankings?
- No. Search visibility depends on competition, location, website quality, reputation, reviews, content and Google's own systems. We report the actions taken and the inputs we can measure, and we will tell you when a target is not realistically winnable from your location.
- Is there a contract or minimum term?
- Monthly, with no minimum term. The setup fee covers the initial audit and profile work, which is genuine one-time effort. Local SEO does take several months to compound, so leaving after one month means paying for foundation work without seeing what it produces.
- Do I need a new website first?
- Not necessarily. If your existing site is reasonably fast, works on a phone and can have its titles, content and structured data edited, SEO work can start on it. If it cannot be edited or is unusable on mobile, that is the constraint to fix first and we will say so.
- What if I only want the Google Business Profile work?
- That is essentially SEO Foundation, which includes the profile connection alongside the keyword baseline and the technical checks. If you want a one-time profile overhaul with no ongoing commitment, ask during the free consultation and we will quote it.

Google Business Profile: the complete setup and optimisation guide
For a local business, your Google Business Profile outranks your website for most searches. It is also free, and most owners fill in a third of it.
