Google Maps Marketing
Google Maps Marketing & Local SEO for Small Businesses & Entrepreneurs
Be found first when customers are searching.
When someone types “best service near me” or “your service in location” into Google, the businesses that appear in the Google Maps 3-Pack are the ones that get the calls. If your business isn’t showing there, you’re losing ready-to-buy customers to competitors.
At Anchor, we specialise in Google Maps Marketing and Local SEO for small businesses and entrepreneurs. Our strategies position your business at the top of local search results, helping you generate more enquiries, attract high-intent customers, and grow consistently within your target area.
Why Local SEO Matters for Small Businesses
Behaviour
Over 70% of customers begin their search online, and most never scroll past the first page. If your business isn’t visible early, you’re missing ready-to-buy prospects.
Proximity
Google prioritises nearby businesses in local searches. Customers want services close to them — and the businesses that appear locally get the first calls.
Visibility
Businesses that show up in the Google Map Pack receive the majority of clicks, calls, and website visits. Strong local presence directly impacts enquiries.
Competition
Without strong local SEO, your competitors will dominate your area. The businesses investing in visibility are the ones winning the leads.
Google Business Profile Optimisation
Your Google Business Profile (GBP) is often the very first impression a potential customer gets of your business. We make sure it’s fully optimised, professional, and designed to convert searches into enquiries.
Photos & Videos
Professional images that reflect your service and build trust.
Posts & Updates
Regular, engaging content to show families your service is active and responsive.
Reviews
Encouraging families to leave positive reviews and guiding you on how to respond.
A well-optimised profile doesn’t just improve visibility — it builds trust before a customer even visits your website.
Local SEO Strategy
Appearing on Google Maps is only part of the equation. To truly dominate local search, you need a clear, data-driven Local SEO strategy tailored to your business and target market.
Local Keyword Research
Identifying the exact phrases families use (e.g. “dementia care home in [town]”).
Directory Clean-Up
Ensuring your name, address, and phone number (NAP) are consistent everywhere online.
Location Pages
Creating SEO-rich pages on your website for each service area.
Local Backlinks
Building authority by being listed in trusted care directories and community sites.
This ensures your business not only appears in Google Maps but also ranks higher in organic local search results.
Building Trust with Reviews
Reviews can make or break a buying decision for any small business. Today’s customers look for proof, credibility, and real experiences before they choose who to trust.
We help you:
With the right strategy, reviews become your biggest driver of enquiries.
Results You Can Expect
When your local SEO is working, you’ll see:
More phone calls directly from your Google profile.
More website visits from families in your area.
More enquiries from customers actively searching for your services.
Long-term growth as you consistently rank higher than competitors.
Our goal is simple: to position your business as the obvious choice in your local market.
