Why

Local SEO is an underused lever

For a shop or craftsman, ranking locally is worth far more than ranking nationally.

When someone searches “electrician Brooklyn”, they have immediate intent. Local SEO captures this high-value demand.

Local SEO relies on three pillars: Google Business Profile, local pages and citations/reviews.

With WebSteve, you get a pragmatic local SEO plan focused on calls and store visits.

FAQ

Local SEO: your questions

How long to rank locally?

How much does a local SEO service cost?

From €290/month for one city, less if multiple cities.

Yes, with a disciplined review strategy. Catch-up possible in 6-12 months.
