Get Found by the Customers Searching for You Right Now

Every day, people in your area type “near me” into Google and pick one of the first businesses they see. Local SEO is how you become one of those businesses. At Who Is Your Web Guy, we help local service businesses in Mountlake Terrace, Edmonds, Lynnwood, Bothell, and across Snohomish County show up in the Google Map Pack and the top of the search results, so the phone rings with customers who are ready to hire.

What Is Local SEO?

Local SEO (local search engine optimization) is the work of making your business the obvious choice when someone nearby searches for what you do. It covers your Google Business Profile, your website, your reviews, and your listings across the web. When all of those tell Google the same clear story about who you are, what you do, and where you do it, Google rewards you with more visibility in your service area.

What’s Included in Our Local SEO Service

• Google Business Profile optimization: categories, services, photos, and posts set up to win more Map Pack visibility. Learn more about Google Business Profile optimization.
• Local keyword research: we find the exact phrases your customers use, city by city and service by service.
• On-page SEO: titles, headings, and content on your service and location pages tuned for local search. Learn more about onsite SEO.
• Citations and directory listings: your business name, address, and phone number made consistent across the directories Google trusts.
• Review growth: a simple system to earn more 5-star reviews and respond to every one. See our reputation management service.
• Internal linking and topical authority: we connect the pages on your site so Google knows exactly which page to rank for each service.
• Content that ranks: helpful service pages and posts written for your customers and for Google. See our site content options, and learn how we make your content ready for AI search.
• Monthly reporting: clear reports on rankings, calls, and website visits, in plain English.

How It Works

1. Discovery call: we learn about your business, your best services, and the areas you want to win.

2. Account setup: we complete our Local SEO checklist to audit, fix, and launch your account.

3. Monthly management: we work through ongoing monthly and quarterly checklist items, then report on your progress. Pricing is based on a 6-month minimum commitment, because real local rankings are built, not bought overnight.

Local SEO FAQ

How long does local SEO take to work?

Many businesses see early movement in the first few months, with stronger results building over 6 months and beyond. How fast depends on your competition, your current website, and your reviews.

Do I need a Google Business Profile?

Yes. Your Google Business Profile is what shows up in Google Maps and the Map Pack. If you don’t have one, or you’re not sure who controls it, we’ll help you claim it and set it up correctly.

What’s the difference between local SEO and Google Ads?

Google Ads puts you at the top of the page immediately, and you pay for every click. Local SEO earns you free visibility that keeps working month after month. Many of our clients use both. Learn more about our Google Ads management.

Can you work with my existing website?

In most cases, yes. We start with a free audit to see what’s helping and what’s holding you back, then build on what you already have. Need a fresh start? See our WordPress website design, hosting, and security service.
