How much does local SEO cost?

Agencies typically charge $500 to $1,500 per month for local SEO alone. At Hello Web Designs, local SEO fundamentals are included in the $150/month website plan, because a fast site and strong local optimization work best when they are built together.

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

If you are not showing up when locals search for your service, the site is not doing its job. That is usually fixable with better on-page optimization, a stronger Google Business Profile, and often a faster site.

Can you do local SEO for multiple cities?

Yes. Dedicated city pages helped The Countertop Shop in Paris, Texas rank #1 or #2 in 9 cities across Texas and Oklahoma. Plans include up to 20 pages, which covers a strong multi-city strategy for most service businesses.

What makes your local SEO different from an agency's?

The person doing your SEO also built your website, and the sites load in under 1 second, which is a ranking advantage most agencies cannot deliver on a template platform. Clients also get a direct phone line to their developer.

Local SEO That Gets Your Business Found

When someone in your town searches for what you do, you either show up or your competitor does. I build local SEO into every website: Google Business Profile, on-page optimization, and the sub-1-second speed Google rewards. No separate agency retainer required.

Why Local SEO Decides Who Gets the Call

Nearly every local job starts the same way: someone types "your service near me" into Google. The businesses in the map pack and the top organic results get the call. Everyone else is invisible.

The Map Pack Wins the Click

The three map results at the top of local searches capture most of the clicks and calls. A complete, optimized Google Business Profile connected to a fast website is how you earn a spot there.

Speed Is a Ranking Factor

Google measures how fast your site loads and rewards the winners. My custom-coded sites load in under 1 second and score 95+ on PageSpeed, a real advantage over template sites in your market.

Location Pages Multiply Your Reach

One page can only rank for so much. Dedicated pages for each city you serve helped my client The Countertop Shop rank #1 or #2 in 9 cities across 2 states and bring in 100+ customers from Google.

What My Local SEO Includes

Everything below is built into your website plan. No add-on packages, no monthly SEO retainer.

Google Business Profile

Setup and optimization of the profile that powers the map pack: categories, services, photos, and the details Google actually reads.

On-Page Local SEO

Titles, headings, schema markup, and content optimized for the services you offer and the cities you serve, so Google understands exactly what you do and where.

City Location Pages

Dedicated, genuinely useful pages for each service area, the same strategy that ranked my clients across multiple cities and states.

Sub-1-Second Speed

Custom code with no builder bloat. Fast sites rank better and convert more of the visitors they earn. Test your current site and see the gap.

Review Strategy

Guidance and simple tools for earning steady Google reviews, one of the strongest local ranking and trust signals there is.

Ongoing Updates

Local SEO is not set-and-forget. Unlimited edits mean new services, cities, and content get added whenever your business grows.

One Price, Website and Local SEO Together

Most agencies charge $500 to $1,500 a month for local SEO on top of your website. Mine is built into the same $150/month plan that covers your custom site, hosting, and unlimited edits. $0 down.

Local SEO Questions, Answered

Agencies typically charge $500 to $1,500 per month for local SEO alone. I take a different approach: local SEO fundamentals are included in my $150/month website plan, because a fast site and strong local optimization work best when they are built together.

Expect meaningful movement in 2 to 4 months for most local markets, faster in small towns with weak competition. Google Business Profile improvements can show results within weeks. Anyone promising #1 rankings overnight is selling something.

A website that nobody finds is a business card in a drawer. If you are not showing up when locals search for your service, the site is not doing its job. That is usually fixable: better on-page optimization, a stronger Google Business Profile, and often a faster site.

Yes, that is my specialty. Dedicated city pages helped The Countertop Shop in Paris, Texas rank #1 or #2 in 9 cities across Texas and Oklahoma. Your plan includes up to 20 pages, which covers a strong multi-city strategy for most service businesses.

Two things. First, the person doing your SEO also built your website, so nothing gets lost between vendors. Second, my sites load in under 1 second, and speed is a ranking advantage most agencies cannot deliver on a template platform. You also get my direct phone number, not a monthly report from a account manager.
