What is local SEO?

Local SEO is the process of improving how a business appears in location-based searches, such as “plumber near me”. It combines Google Business Profile optimization, service and area pages, consistent business details, reviews and on-page SEO.

How long does local SEO take to work?

Google Business Profile improvements can show changes within weeks; service and area pages typically take three to six months to build stable visibility. Timelines depend on competition, your website and how consistently you add reviews and content.
