Advantage Local helps service businesses understand how they are interpreted by Google Search and Maps. We identify and correct visibility gaps that influence ranking and trust.
Google builds its understanding of your. company by comparing information from across the internet. Your website, Google Business Profile, business listings, reviews (across all major platforms), etc., all contribute to how Google initerprets what you do and where you should appear in search.
Consistency helps with building your profile; this is commonaly found in NAP (Name, Address, Phone).
But it's not limited to business listings.
Your business also fares well to include specific services in the reviews you receive (ethically), keeping your content up to date and valueable, etc.
Our work focuses on identifying the gaps that exist, making the corrections, and then making adjustments based on what the data is presenting.
