Week one: the audit

We audit your website, your Google Business Profile, your competitors, and what AI assistants say when someone asks for a firm like yours. You'll see the findings in your portal, in plain words, with what each one means for your business.

We'll ask you a few questions only you can answer, like the services you most want to grow, so the work fits your business and every fact we use is true.

Your keywords and your first plan

You approve the searches we'll build your pages around. Then each month we plan the work that will move your results most, with the reason for every item, and you can see the plan any time.

Every month after

Work arrives in your portal for your approval as it's ready. Approved changes go live and are checked on your live site. You get a monthly report on what was done and what changed, and a weekly note on the behind-the-scenes work.

Most clients see measurable movement within 3 to 6 months, and significant results in 6 to 12, depending on competition and where you start.

What we'll ask of you

A few minutes a week to approve or comment, access to your website builder so our team can apply approved changes, and a manager invite to your Google Business Profile. Your portal lists anything we're waiting on, with how to do it.
