Local SEO for Michigan small businesses
Being found by someone nearby who is searching right now. That is an organic customer. They found you on their own, and it cost nothing per click.
For a business up here, your Google Business Profile usually does more work than your website does.
It is what appears in the map results when someone searches nearby. Categories, services, hours, photos and reviews all feed how high you place. Sometimes the answer is that your site is fine and your profile is the problem. I would rather tell you that than sell you a rebuild you do not need.
Google is a game with rules. It reads your site, your listings and your reviews, then decides who to show to which searchers. Play it right and it puts you in front of the exact customers you want, for free. And the honest timeline: this takes months to hold, not weeks. It is monthly work because it needs doing every month.
What the work covers
Google Business Profile
Profile optimisation, local directory listings, and review generation. The things that decide whether you appear in the map pack. To do the work I need manager access on your profile: a minute to grant, revocable any time.
On-page SEO
Every site I build already gets the fundamentals: correct titles, clean heading structure, image descriptions, a sitemap, fast pages. That is included in every plan. The monthly work goes deeper: structured data telling Google what kind of business you are and when you are open, heading architecture built around the terms people actually search, internal links that connect your service pages.
Analytics
Tracking installed so you can see where traffic comes from and what people do, including form submissions and calls. Without it you are guessing. With it you can see that most visitors arrive on a phone on Friday night looking for hours, which tells you exactly what belongs at the top of your homepage.
SEO consulting
An assessment of how visible you are in search: keyword research, competitor comparison, a technical audit, and a review of your listings, delivered as a prioritised list of what to fix. Useful before you spend money changing anything.
SEO lives inside the monthly plans rather than being sold separately, starting at $199 a month. See full pricing.
