Frequently asked questions.
The most common doubts before hiring
What is Google My Business and why is it crucial for local businesses?
Google My Business is a free tool from Google that lets you manage your online presence across Google Search and Maps. It's crucial because most consumers use Google to find local businesses. An optimized profile significantly boosts your visibility and credibility, driving more customers to your location.
How long does it take to see results from Local SEO?
Local SEO is an ongoing process, not a quick fix. Initial improvements, like increased search visibility, typically appear within 1-3 months. More significant results, such as a rise in calls and foot traffic, usually become noticeable from the 4th to 6th month, depending on competition and your current online standing.
My business doesn't have a website; can I still benefit from Local SEO?
Yes, you absolutely can. While a website greatly aids with Schema Markup, a well-optimized Google My Business profile with rich photos, complete information, and active review management can still deliver substantial results. Your GMB profile acts as a powerful 'mini-website' directly within Google.
What are 'citations', and why are they important for local rankings?
Citations are mentions of your business's Name, Address, and Phone (NAP) on other websites, such as local directories (Yelp, Yellow Pages). They are vital because Google uses them to verify your business's existence and location, which in turn enhances your local search authority and ranking.
How does studiomosaiko handle negative reviews?
We view negative reviews as opportunities to demonstrate exceptional customer service. We develop a transparent, empathetic, and professional response strategy aimed at resolving the issue and, if possible, converting a negative experience into a positive one. This shows potential customers your commitment to satisfaction.
Do I need a Google Account for this service?
Yes, a Google Account is essential as your Google My Business profile is linked to it. If you don't have one, we will guide you through the creation process. This account grants you full access and control over your business's information. We ensure secure initial setup and handover.
What's the difference between Local SEO and traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO aims to rank for broad search terms on a national or global scale. Local SEO specifically targets searches with local intent (e.g., "restaurants near me," "plumber in NYC"), helping physical businesses be found by customers in their immediate geographic area. It relies on unique local ranking factors.
Will studiomosaiko create content for my GMB posts?
Yes, our team will create weekly, relevant posts for your Google My Business profile. These include updates on products, services, promotions, and useful information. Consistent posting keeps your profile active, engages potential customers, and signals to Google that your business is vibrant and current.
