No. The profile is free. Google also says there’s no way to pay for a better local ranking. Google Ads can show your business at the top too, but they’re a separate, paid thing, and they’re labelled as ads.

No one can promise that, so be careful of anyone who does. Google decides the order. Distance plays a big part, so someone standing next to a rival will often see them first. What we promise is careful work every month on the parts you can control, and honest reports.

Some fixes, like the right category or correct hours, can show up soon after Google accepts them. Reviews and a strong reputation build up over months. Your monthly report shows the trend, so you’re never left guessing.

That’s common. Often the profile was set up once, then left. Or someone stuffed town names into the business name, which breaks Google’s rules. We start by checking what’s there, fix what’s wrong, then do the steady work every month. Your report shows what we did and what moved.

You can. The profile is free, and Google’s help pages are good. The hard part is keeping it up: asking for reviews, replying, adding photos and checking for edits other people made. Most owners are too busy, so it slips. We do it every month, so it doesn’t.

No. Our plans run on a rolling 30 days, and monthly plans come with a 30-day money back promise. Your Google profile belongs to your business, so it stays with you if you stop.

We built the website for Optima, the glass partition firm in High Wycombe. Every office is listed in full, and each UK team has its own page. That’s the groundwork local search needs. See the Optima story.

No. Google calls this a service-area business. Plumbers, cleaners and mobile hairdressers are good examples. Google’s guidelines say you should hide your home address and list the areas you serve instead. We set that up for you.

Only if it’s really part of your name, on your sign and your paperwork. Google’s guidelines say your name should match your real-world name. Adding extra words isn’t allowed, and it can get your profile suspended.

No. Google’s rules don’t allow rewards for reviews, like money off or freebies. You also shouldn’t only ask the customers you think are happy. The honest way works best: ask everyone, and make it easy with a short link or a QR card.

Not always. Your Google profile does a lot of the work. But Google also looks at your website, and a good one turns map clicks into calls. Every plan includes your website designed and built for you, so a new one is part of the deal if you need it.

Grow. It includes local SEO, your profile refreshed every month, an SEO plan, new content and a monthly report. Scale includes it too. There’s no contract, so you can switch plans or stop any time.
