Ranking factors
Three things put a business in the map results.
Google says so in its own documentation, and every local tactic worth paying for moves one of the three.
Relevance
Distance
Prominence
What is included
What local SEO work includes.
Seven kinds of work. The first three fix what is wrong today. The other four keep the position once you have won it.
- 01
Google Business Profile
Categories, services, attributes, photos, posts, and the questions section, set up properly and kept current. The profile is the landing page most local customers see first. - 02
Citations and consistency
Your name, address and phone number match on every directory that matters. We remove duplicates and fix the listings that quietly contradict you. - 03
Location and service pages
A page per place you serve and per service you offer, written from real work there. Not a template with the city swapped in, and no page for a city you do not serve. - 04
Reviews
A regular rhythm for asking and a system for replying, inside the federal rules on incentives. Recency matters as much as the count. - 05
Local content
Answers to the questions people in your market actually ask, the kind that earn mentions from neighbors and local press. - 06
Tracking
Calls, direction requests, and form fills tied to their source, so the monthly scorecard can say what the profile produced. - 07
Reporting
Search Console, Business Profile insights, and call data on one plain-language page each month.
Service area
Salt Lake City, the Wasatch Front, and the valleys either side.
In person anywhere along the Wasatch Front and in the mountain communities east of it. Remotely across Utah and beyond. We do not publish a page for every city, because a page should describe work actually done there. If your town is not in this list, ask. We say yes more often than no.

Real work
A Sandy business, found from the map.
The Doggy Den is a grooming and kennel-free boarding business in Sandy. We designed and built the site with the local layer in from the start, and keep it on a care plan. Google's own Business Profile panel, which retains six months of data, shows what the profile has been doing since March.
The site itself is shown on the SEO page. See the build
