Whether you are a contractor working seasonally, a professional service competing with larger firms, or a local business expanding into nearby towns, we focus on the pages and search terms that support real growth.

  • Local SEO and Google Maps optimization for Rochester NY businesses
  • On-page SEO, keyword targeting, and content improvements
  • Technical SEO and site health upgrades

If your site needs better structure or clearer messaging, we also offer focused On-Page SEO services and Technical SEO services to address issues that are often missed.

In some cases, SEO works best when paired with our website design services. Cleaning up site structure early can prevent long-term problems that slow rankings and waste time.

Local SEO and Google Maps Optimization

Many customers start their search in Google Maps or with location-based searches before visiting a website. Local SEO helps your business appear in Google Maps and local search results at the right time, in the right place. Instead of treating your website and Google Business Profile as separate pieces, we make sure they support each other.

  • Google Business Profile cleanup and optimization
  • Category and service selection based on real search behavior
  • Local landing pages for the towns you serve
  • Review strategy and easy review-request processes
  • Local citation checks and cleanup
  • On-page local relevance signals and internal linking

If Google Maps visibility is a top priority, our Google Business Profile optimization services are often one of the fastest ways to gain traction, especially in areas where competitors are not paying close attention.

We focus heavily on Rochester’s east side, including Penfield, Pittsford, Webster, Fairport, and Brighton. Search behavior can change even between nearby towns. Small local details, like proximity to Route 250, the Village of Fairport, or busy areas near Eastview Mall, can sometimes help Google better understand where your business is most relevant.

On Page SEO and Content Optimization

On-page SEO helps search engines understand what each page on your website is meant to do. When headings are unclear, links are missing, or pages try to do too much, rankings can stall. We organize your content so both visitors and search engines can quickly understand what matters most.

  • Title tags, meta descriptions, and heading structure
  • Keyword mapping for your core services and locations
  • Internal linking between important pages
  • Updating thin or outdated content
  • Improving image alt text and basic schema markup

We are not trying to stuff keywords into every sentence. The goal is to help each page clearly answer a specific search question so it can rank more consistently. If you are unsure where to start, our SEO audit services can help identify the biggest opportunities.

Technical SEO and Site Health

Even a great-looking website can struggle if it loads slowly, has mobile issues, or contains technical clutter. Technical SEO focuses on the behind-the-scenes details that affect how Google crawls and understands your site.

  • Core Web Vitals and performance improvements
  • Mobile layout and usability fixes
  • Indexing, crawlability, and sitemap updates
  • Fixing broken links, redirects, and outdated URLs
  • Basic hosting and security recommendations

Because we work with WordPress every day, our technical recommendations are practical and realistic. We also offer dedicated WordPress SEO services when themes, plugins, or page builders affect performance.

Our SEO Process

SEO should not feel confusing or mysterious. Our process is simple and transparent, so you always know what is being worked on and why.

  1. Discovery: We learn about your business, services, and service area, and review current performance.
  2. SEO Audit: A deeper look at structure, content, local signals, and competitors.
  3. Strategy: A clear plan with priorities and expectations.
  4. Implementation: Technical fixes and content improvements are applied.
  5. Tracking: Rankings, traffic, and lead activity are monitored.
  6. Refinement: Adjustments are made as search behavior changes.

If you want a clear roadmap before moving forward, start with an SEO audit. It shows what is holding your site back and what to fix first.
