Local SEO
Local SEO for Los Angeles Businesses
For most local businesses, the map pack, the three businesses Google shows with a map, brings in the most calls. Ranking there depends on a complete Google Business Profile, reviews, consistent business details across the web, and service pages that match what people search for in your area.
We optimize all of it, and our digital marketing team keeps your profile active with posts and photos.
Local ranking factors
- Google Business Profile
- Reviews and responses
- Consistent name, address, phone
- Service and location pages
AI Search
AI Search Optimization (AIO and GEO)
AI search optimization, also called AIO or generative engine optimization (GEO), helps AI assistants understand and cite your business. We write clear, quotable answers to the questions customers ask, add structured data for your business and services, publish an llms.txt file, and keep your details consistent everywhere AI tools look.
We use the same approach on our own website, and track AI visibility in Semrush alongside regular rankings.
AI search checklist
- Question-and-answer content
- Schema for business and services
- llms.txt file
- Consistent business details
- AI visibility tracking
Technical SEO
Technical SEO and Site Health
Search engines can't rank pages they can't crawl or that load slowly. We fix broken links, redirect chains, duplicate content, missing titles and headings, slow pages, and invalid structured data, using Semrush site audits and Google Search Console to find problems and confirm fixes.
Planning a new site? Our web design process protects your rankings through the redesign.
Common fixes
- Broken links and 404s
