In brief: Local SEO helps eligible businesses present accurate location, service-area and website information across local discovery surfaces. Google Business Profile creation and optimisation can be supported, but verification remains Google’s decision and requires owner cooperation.

Google Business Profile: what I can and cannot control
I can help create, prepare and optimise a Google Business Profile when that work is included. Google controls eligibility, verification, reverification, ownership decisions, suspensions, reinstatement and final visibility. I cannot guarantee verification or a local-pack position.
You must provide truthful business information, suitable evidence, timely cooperation and access. You retain primary ownership and recovery control of the profile.
Practices I will not support
- Fabricated offices or virtual locations presented as staffed premises
- Misleading service areas
- Fake or selectively manipulated reviews
- Doorway location pages
- Policy evasion or account misrepresentation
- Guaranteed Maps rankings
Ongoing support
Paid ongoing support may include website improvements, profile updates, citation work, review guidance, monitoring and monthly reporting. Exact coverage follows the agreed scope.
Frequently asked questions
Can you create and optimise a Google Business Profile?
Yes, for an eligible business and with truthful information supplied by the owner.
Can you guarantee Google Business Profile verification?
No. Google controls verification methods and outcomes; the owner must provide suitable evidence and timely cooperation.
Do home-based businesses need to display their address?
Not necessarily. A genuine service-area business that does not formally receive customers at the address should normally hide it and follow Google’s current rules.
Does Local SEO guarantee map rankings?
No. It can improve accuracy, relevance and eligibility, but rankings and visibility cannot be guaranteed.
