Local SEO

Local SEO in Vancouver, WA & Portland Metro

Local SEO is the ongoing work that gets a small business showing up when someone nearby actually searches for what it sells — a fully built-out Google Business Profile, consistent listings across the directories that matter, and a website structured so Google, and AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini, can read exactly what the business does and where. For a Vancouver or Portland-area business, that's the difference between being found and being invisible next to competitors who've already done the work.

Before You Ask

Common Questions

What is local SEO?+

The work that gets a business showing up when someone nearby searches for what it sells — Google Business Profile, local directories, and a website structured so both search engines and AI tools understand what the business does and where.

How long does local SEO take?+

Most businesses start seeing movement within 60–90 days. It compounds from there — SEO is closer to planting than flipping a switch.

How much does local SEO cost?+

Starts at $1,500/month. Exact scope depends on how competitive your market is and how much groundwork already exists.

Do you serve Portland too?+

Yes — Vancouver, WA is home base, but marketing work covers the whole Portland metro area, and beyond by arrangement.

Is there a contract?+

No long-term contract. Month to month, so the work has to keep earning it.

Do you also build the website, or just the SEO?+

Both, if you need it. A site with no SEO foundation and SEO work with nothing solid to send people to both cap out fast — worth pairing them.
