Local SEO services

Our local SEO services put your business in front of people searching nearby: higher on Google Maps, aiming for the Map Pack (the top 3 businesses Google shows on the map), and in the local listings and AI answers people check. We complete and manage your Google Business Profile while you stay the owner, keep your business details identical across the directories Google and the assistants check, ask every customer for a review within Google's rules, and build the local pages that rank in your area. Every month you see your map rankings, profile views and the calls your profile brought in. It is part of Growth, at$189€189 a month with the website included.

Local citation services, which list a business consistently across directories, are often sold as a separate package; here they are part of the same plan, together with Google Maps SEO and the website itself. As your local SEO company, we handle all of it for businesses of every size, and local SEO for small business is where most of our work starts.

Google publishes the answer, and it starts by ruling out shortcuts: "There's no way to request or pay for a better local ranking on Google." The ranking rests on three factors: "Local results are mainly based on relevance, distance, and popularity." On the third, which it also calls prominence, Google says the factor is "also based on info like how many websites link to your business and how many reviews you have. More reviews and positive ratings can help your business's local ranking" (Google Business Profile Help, Tips to improve your local ranking, read September 28, 2026). Distance is fixed, so our Google Maps SEO works on the other two: a profile that matches the searches you want, and the reviews, links and mentions that make you well known.

Ask every customer, make it easy, and never pay for it. Google's method is simple: "To leave reviews, you can ask customers to visit a Google link or scan a QR code." Its limit is strict: "Offering incentives, like free or discounted goods or services, in exchange for customers to post reviews, change reviews, or remove negative reviews is considered fake & misleading content and is strictly prohibited" (Google Business Profile Help, Tips to get more reviews).

In the United States it is also federal law. The FTC's rule on reviews makes it a violation "for a business to provide compensation or other incentives in exchange for, or conditioned expressly or by implication on, the writing or creation of consumer reviews expressing a particular sentiment, whether positive or negative" (16 CFR Part 465, section 465.4). So our review requests go to every customer, offer nothing in return, and keep your reviews growing within the rules. Our guide on how to get more Google reviews goes through it step by step, and the one on removing Google reviews covers what Google takes down.

Fablence designs, builds, runs and grows your website for you. Here is how that compares with a website builder you run yourself and a one-off build from an agency or freelancer.

By doing everything Google's own guide asks, completely, and keeping it true. We verify the business, choose the most specific categories, list every service, keep regular and holiday hours right, add photos and reply to reviews; Google's reasoning for the last is that "when you reply to customer reviews, it shows that you value their feedback" (Google Business Profile Help). Our Google Business Profile management service does all of it as a manager on your profile: you stay the owner, and we remove ourselves within seven days if you leave.

Everything you would expect from a professional local SEO agency, in your name:

• Your Google Business Profile stays yours; we are added as a manager.
• Every listing we create is registered to your business.
• Every review request follows Google's rules and the FTC's.
• A monthly report shows your map rankings, profile views and calls.
• Your pages, listings and data stay yours if you ever leave.
