Google Local Pack optimization for contractors
The Local Pack is the box of three businesses at the top of a local search. Landing in it is the single biggest win in local SEO. We do the work that gets you there.
Three spots. Below them, you're nearly invisible.
The Local Pack shows three businesses with a map, right at the top of the results. Most homeowners call one of those three and never scroll down. Everything below the pack fights over the leftovers. Local Pack optimization is the targeted work of getting you into those three spots, because that's where the overwhelming share of local calls go.
