Can local customers
actually find you?
Ten checks decide whether you show up when someone nearby searches for what you do. Tick what you already do and get an honest score — plus the exact list of what to fix first.
Tick everything you already do. Be honest — the gaps are where the wins are.
This is a self-assessment guide, not an official Google audit — it reflects widely-accepted local ranking best practices to help you prioritise. For a hands-on review, just ask.
Why local search is won on fundamentals
Ranking in the local "map pack" and nearby searches isn't about tricks — it's about getting a handful of fundamentals right and keeping them right. A claimed, complete Google Business Profile; steady, answered reviews; consistent business details everywhere you appear; and a fast site with a real page for each town you serve. This scorecard checks the ten that move the needle most.
Every unchecked box above is a customer who searched for what you do and found someone else. If the list feels like a lot, that's exactly what our Local SEO service handles — and it pairs with a fast site, since speed is on the list for a reason.
