How many posts are included with the standard service?

We include one high-quality Google Post per week (4-5 monthly) in our standard GBP Management package. Posts feature professional images, keyword optimization, and strategic calls-to-action that drive engagement. If your business needs more frequent posting—such as daily specials, events, or promotions—we offer an add-on that includes 10 additional posts monthly for maximum visibility.

Will you respond to customer reviews for us?

Our standard service includes review monitoring, response strategy guidance, and templated replies you can customize for both positive and negative feedback. This ensures authentic, brand-aligned responses while keeping you in control. For hands-off convenience, our Direct Review Response add-on allows us to craft and post responses directly on your behalf—typically within 24-48 hours of review posting.

How do you help us show up higher in local search results?

We optimize your Google Business Profile with keyword-rich descriptions, accurate NAP (name, address, phone) information, strategic categories, high-quality photos, and regular fresh content—all ranking factors Google uses for local search. Monthly reports track your visibility in Google Maps and local pack results. Our ongoing optimization responds to algorithm changes and competitive movements to maintain strong positioning.

Will you own or control my Google Business Profile?

Absolutely not. You retain complete ownership and admin access to your Google Business Profile at all times. We request Manager-level access, which allows us to optimize and maintain your listing without ownership rights. You can revoke our access instantly whenever you choose—no contracts holding your profile hostage. Your business assets remain yours, always.

Can you help with verifications, suspensions, or other account issues?

Yes. We assist with initial verification processes, troubleshoot profile suspensions, handle duplicate listing removals, and communicate with Google support on your behalf when technical issues arise. Our agency-level tools and established escalation channels often resolve problems faster than individual business owners can achieve alone. Most verification and suspension issues are resolved within 7-14 business days.

Common Questions About Local SEO

What's the difference between Local SEO and regular SEO?

Local SEO focuses specifically on appearing in location-based searches like "restaurants near me" or "hotels in San Miguel de Allende." While traditional SEO targets broader organic rankings, local SEO optimizes your Google Business Profile, builds citations across directories, implements local schema markup on your website, and targets location-specific keywords. It's essential for any business serving customers in a specific geographic area—from luxury hotels to real estate agencies to high-end restaurants across Central Mexico.

How long does it take to see results from Local SEO?

Initial setup and optimization typically takes 3-4 weeks. Most clients begin seeing measurable improvements in keyword rankings and Google Maps visibility within 3-6 months. Local SEO is a compound investment—unlike paid ads that stop when you stop paying, every citation built, every optimized page, and every review earned strengthens your position permanently. Businesses in highly competitive markets (like luxury hotels in San Miguel) may need 6-9 months to reach page one, while those in less saturated niches often see faster results.

Do I need Local SEO if I already have a website?

Having a website is just the first step. Local SEO ensures that website actually gets found by customers searching for businesses like yours. We optimize your website's technical foundation (NAP consistency, local schema markup, mobile performance), build your presence across 50+ directory platforms, manage your Google Business Profile, and implement review strategies. Even the most beautiful website is useless if customers can't find it when searching "luxury hotels San Miguel de Allende" or "interior designers Querétaro."

Will you optimize my site in both English and Spanish?

Absolutely. Bilingual optimization is one of our core differentiators. We optimize your Google Business Profile, website content, and directory citations in both English and Spanish—capturing tourists, expats, and Mexican nationals. Most local SEO agencies in Central Mexico only work in one language, meaning they're missing half your potential customers. We handle keyword research, content optimization, and citation building in both languages, ensuring you dominate local search regardless of which language customers use. Learn more about our bilingual content services.

How do you measure Local SEO success?

We track multiple metrics in monthly reports: keyword rankings for your target local searches, Google Maps visibility position, website traffic from local searches, phone calls and direction requests, form submissions and conversions, competitor rankings comparison, and citation consistency scores. You'll see exactly where you rank for searches like "hotels in San Miguel de Allende" or "real estate Querétaro," how you compare to competitors, and how many customers found you through local search each month. Transparent reporting means you always know your ROI.
