Show up when Glasgow searches for what you do.
“Plumber near me.” “Best café in Shawlands.” “Hairdresser West End.” If your business isn’t showing up when people are searching locally, you’re missing out on leads that are going to competitors instead. Our local SEO fixes that.
Your customers are searching, are you showing up ?

Four pillars, All four matter.
Most “SEO” services do one thing – usually keyword stuffing – and call it a day. Local SEO is four jobs done in parallel. We do all four.
Google Business Profile
Categories, services, opening hours, photos, posts, Q&A, review responses. Done properly, your GBP alone can get you in the map pack within 30 days.
Citations & Directories
Yell, Bing Places, Apple Maps, Yelp UK, Scoot, Trustpilot, industry-specific directories. Consistent NAP (name, address, phone) builds Google’s trust in you.
On-page Optimisation
Page titles, meta descriptions, schema markup, internal linking, location pages, service pages. The technical bits that make Google rank you for the right searches.
Authority
Local content that targets the searches your customers actually make. Plus a system to keep 5-star reviews rolling in — one of the biggest ranking factors for local.
The questions we get asked every time
Straight answers, including the ones that don’t do us any favours.
How long before I see results?
The map pack, meaning the three businesses with pins at the top, usually moves first. In Glasgow’s suburbs and the surrounding towns that tends to be four to eight weeks, quicker if your Google Business Profile has been sitting neglected and there’s obvious ground to make up. The regular listings underneath take longer, normally months, because that side runs on trust that builds slowly. If someone promises you page one in a fortnight, they’re either lying or planning something that gets your site penalised.
Do you guarantee rankings?
No, and nobody honestly can. Google doesn’t sell positions and doesn’t publish how it decides them. What we commit to is the work: your profile, your citations, the fixes on your site and the content all get done, and you get a monthly report showing what moved and what didn’t. If a guarantee is what you’re after, be careful who offers you one.
Why the three-month minimum?
A shorter run isn’t a fair test of anything. Month one goes on setup, so profile, citations, and fixing what’s on your website. Month two is when Google starts responding. Month three is usually the first one that looks like a result on paper. Billing you for a single month would mean taking your money for the part where nothing visible has happened yet.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep the lot. The Google Business Profile is yours, the citations stay live, and the changes we made to your website stay on your website. Nothing gets held back or undone when someone leaves, which strikes us as the only arrangement worth offering. A month’s notice is all we ask.
I already have a website. Do I still need SEO?
A website is where people land. SEO is how they find it. Plenty of perfectly good-looking sites get almost no traffic because nobody ever did the second part. If you’re not sure which side your problem sits on, that’s exactly what the free audit is for.
Could I just do this myself?
A fair amount of it, yes. Claiming your Google Business Profile properly, asking customers for reviews and replying to them will take most local businesses further than they expect, and we’ve written a guide to doing exactly that. People hire us when they’d rather spend those hours running their business, or when they’ve done the basics and hit a wall against competitors who’ve been at it for years.
