Why aren't you showing up when customers search?

If any of these sound familiar, you're dealing with this problem:

Not in the Map Pack

When you search your services + city, competitors appear but you don't.

Page 2 or Beyond

You might rank eventually, but 75% of users never scroll past page 1.

Competitors Getting Your Calls

Customers searching for exactly what you offer are finding others first.

Low Website Traffic

Your site exists but isn't getting organic visitors from search.

Why this happens

1

Incomplete Google Business Profile

Missing categories, incomplete hours, no photos—Google doesn't trust incomplete profiles.

2

Inconsistent NAP

Your name, address, and phone number vary across directories, confusing Google.

3

No Local Content

Your website doesn't mention the cities you serve or the specific services you offer.

4

Few or No Reviews

Reviews are a major ranking factor. Competitors with more reviews outrank you.

5

Poor Technical SEO

Slow site, not mobile-friendly, or missing basic SEO elements.

Common questions

With consistent effort, expect to see improvement in 60-90 days. Significant ranking gains typically happen within 4-6 months.

You can appear with just a Google Business Profile, but having a website significantly improves your chances and gives customers more reasons to choose you.

They might have better-optimized profiles, more reviews, or more relevant content. Age matters less than relevance and engagement signals.
