Most clients see movement in 30 to 90 days. The first work focuses on the Google Business Profile, because it controls much of what customers see in the map results. Categories, services, hours, photos and the service area all get reviewed and corrected. A complete profile gives every later step a stronger base.

Next comes the service and city pages. A Friendswood page should name the services you offer, such as lockouts, rekeying, car keys and lock installation.

We review that progress with you each month and adjust the plan based on what customers actually do. The goal is steady local visibility that brings in the right calls.
