Services/ Local SEO Dublin

Local SEO for Dublin businesses.

When somebody in Dublin searches for a physio in Ranelagh or a solicitor near Merrion Square, Google shows three local businesses on a map before anything else. Local SEO is the work that puts you in that list, and on the page underneath it.

What local SEO covers

01

Google Business Profile

Set up properly, or claimed and cleaned up if one already exists. Categories, services, hours, photos and posts, kept accurate. This is the single biggest factor in the map results.

Setup·Optimisation
02

Name, address, phone

Your business name, address and phone number, spelled the same way everywhere Google looks. Inconsistency here is the most common reason a Dublin business does not show up.

03

Location and service pages

A page for each thing you do and, where it makes sense, each area you serve. Written for a person, structured for Google.

Content·Structure
04

Reviews

A simple way to ask for reviews, a plan for answering them, and the review markup that lets Google show stars beside your name.

Review flow·Schema
05

Citations and directories

Listings in the directories that matter for Ireland, and only those. Golden Pages, industry bodies, local chambers. No spam networks.

Technical fixes

Indexing, sitemaps, redirects, broken links, duplicate pages, schema markup. The unglamorous work that decides whether Google can read the site at all.

Page speed

A site that loads in under a second ranks better and converts better. We build for that from the start, or fix it on a site somebody else built.

02 How we do it

We start with what is stopping Google indexing you. Crawl errors, pages blocked by mistake, a Business Profile with the wrong category, a phone number that differs between your site and your listing. None of it is glamorous and all of it comes first, because new pages on a broken site rank for nothing.

Then we build the pages that rank. One per service, one per location where the business has more than one, each answering the question somebody actually typed. We write them with you, because you know the work and we know the structure.

Fix what is broken, then build what is missing.

03 What to expect

Most sites see movement within 60 to 90 days. Movement means more impressions in Search Console, a better position for the terms you care about, and more calls from the Business Profile. On Grow we track rankings for 90 days after launch, so you can see it rather than take our word for it.

We will not promise a position. Nobody honest can. What we can promise is that the technical work is done properly, the pages exist, and you can see the numbers.

04 Who it suits

Local SEO works best for a business that serves people who can walk or drive to it.

Clinics

Physio, dental, specialist and GP practices. Patients search by condition and by area, and they read reviews before they call. See websites for clinics.

Professional services

Solicitors, accountants and financial advisers. Trust is the whole sale, and a well-kept profile with real reviews is trust people can see. See law firms and financial advisers.

Studios

Pilates, yoga and fitness studios with a fixed address and a timetable. Every class search is a local search. See Pilates studios.

Local trades

Electricians, plumbers, builders and decorators. Most of the work comes from the map, and most of the map is won on reviews and consistency.

05 What it costs

Local SEO is included in Grow at €10,800. That covers the SEO research, the technical fixes, the service and location pages, the Business Profile work and 90 days of rank tracking after launch, alongside the design and build of a site of up to fifteen pages. See what each tier includes.

If you already have a site you are happy with and only want the search work, we scope it separately and send a written quote within two working days. We do not publish a standalone SEO price because the amount of work depends on the state of the site and the profile, and we would rather look first than guess.

If the site itself is the problem, our web design in Dublin page explains how a rebuild runs and what it costs.

06/ FAQ

Common questions.

What is local SEO?

Local SEO is the work of getting a business found by people searching near it. It covers your Google Business Profile, the map results, your reviews, and the pages on your site that describe what you do and where. Ordinary SEO aims at everyone. Local SEO aims at Dublin.

How long does local SEO take?

Most sites see movement within 60 to 90 days of the work going live. Technical fixes and Business Profile changes show up first. New pages take longer to earn their place. On Grow we track rankings for 90 days so you can watch it happen.

Do I need a new website for local SEO?

Not always. If the site is sound we work on what is there. If it is slow, hard for Google to read or built on something we cannot fix, we will tell you and quote for both options.

What does Google Business Profile optimisation involve?

Claiming or verifying the profile, choosing the right primary and secondary categories, filling in services, hours and attributes, adding real photos, posting updates and answering reviews. Then keeping it that way.

Can you guarantee a first-page ranking?

No, and be wary of anyone who does. Google does not sell positions. We guarantee the work is done properly and that you can see the results in the numbers.
