Our local SEO process.
A clear, structured journey from first call to measurable results. No guesswork — just a repeatable system that works.
Real results from clients
just like you.
"We set up our GBP with Inventive and went from zero local presence to ranking in the top 3 for our main search terms. We get 40+ enquiries a week now just from Google Maps."
"I was invisible on Google Maps before — no profile, no reviews, no presence. Now I rank #1 locally and my GBP drives more leads than Instagram. Game-changer."
"Reviews went from 11 to 74 in 4 months. The strategy for generating them consistently was simple but the impact on our local ranking was massive. We're now the top-rated in our suburb."
Why Local SEO Is the Highest-Intent Traffic You Can Get
When someone searches "near me" or types your service category into Google, they are ready to buy. A fully optimised Google Business Profile puts your business in front of that high-intent local audience at exactly the right moment.
The top 3 local results capture the majority of clicks. We optimise every ranking signal to get you into that coveted Map Pack position.
A strategic review generation system turns happy customers into public proof — the single most powerful trust signal for local businesses.
Local SEO delivers organic traffic with no cost-per-click. Once your profile is optimised and ranking, leads come in without ongoing ad spend.
We track your rankings across every suburb and service area — ensuring you show up wherever your customers are searching, not just at your address.

Common questions
answered honestly.
How do I get my business to show up on Google Maps?
Your Google Business Profile (GBP) is the primary factor in Google Maps rankings. Key optimisation signals include: complete and accurate business information, consistent NAP (name, address, phone) across the web, regular GBP posts, a high volume of recent 5-star reviews, and local keyword optimisation in your description and services. Inventive Media handles all of this systematically.
How long does it take to rank in the Google local 3-pack?
Most businesses see measurable ranking movement within 4–8 weeks of starting a proper optimisation campaign. Reaching the local 3-pack for competitive terms typically takes 2–4 months. The speed depends on your starting position, local competition, and how quickly we can build citations and reviews.
How can I get more Google reviews fast?
The fastest, most effective method is a systematic follow-up process: automated email and SMS requests sent to every customer shortly after their experience, combined with QR code review cards for in-person businesses. Inventive Media's review generation system typically doubles a client's review count within the first 60 days.
Does Google Business Profile affect my website's Google ranking?
Yes. A well-optimised GBP with strong reviews, consistent citations, and regular posts sends authority signals to Google that improve your website's rankings for local search terms. GBP and local SEO work as a connected system — improvements in one reinforce the other.
What happens if someone leaves a bad review on my Google Business Profile?
Negative reviews need a prompt, professional response — which is included in our management service. We draft responses that acknowledge the concern, demonstrate accountability, and show future customers that you care. Where a review violates Google's policies (fake, spam, or competitor reviews), we flag it for removal through the official process.
