Google searches for local businesses have surged. "Near me" searches are growing 50%+ year-on-year — and the businesses that appear in the top 3 of Google Maps get 70% of those clicks.
The difference between showing up #1 and #6 isn't usually quality — it's whether your Google Business Profile is complete, active, and regularly updated. Most local businesses set it up once and forget it.
We make your profile work every single week — fresh posts, review responses, updated photos, and regular content signals that tell Google you're active and relevant.
We go through every section — business description, categories, attributes, hours, website, phone. Properly categorised so Google shows you for the right searches.
Regular posts directly on your Google profile signal to the algorithm that you're active. We write and publish these every week — specials, news, events, updates.
Every review — 5 stars or 1 star — gets a professional, personalised response within 48 hours. This builds trust with new customers and shows Google you're engaged.
Profiles with 10+ photos get 35% more clicks. We advise on what to shoot, caption the photos for searchability, and upload them regularly to keep your profile fresh.
Views, calls, direction requests, website clicks — all tracked and reported each month in plain English. You'll know exactly what Google is sending you.
We optimise your profile description and posts with the exact search terms your customers use — "cafe Busselton", "plumber near Dunsborough", "accommodation South West WA".
88% of people read business responses to reviews before choosing where to go. Leaving reviews unanswered tells potential customers you don't care — even if the review itself was positive.
We respond to every review in a voice that sounds like you — warm, genuine, and locally authentic. For negative reviews, we follow a professional de-escalation approach that protects your reputation.
We'll audit your current Google profile for free — showing you exactly what's missing and what it would take to rank higher in your area.
