Get Found Where
Your Customers Are
TIV360 has been helping small businesses dominate local search since 2012. Google Maps rankings, organic local SEO, paid search, and social media strategies — all matched to your actual service area so you grow without wasting time and budget on customers you can't serve.
Visibility Where It Counts —
In Your Own Backyard
Local SEO isn't just about rankings. It's about making sure the right people in the right zip codes find your business at the exact moment they need what you offer.
Google My Business & Maps
The Google Business Profile is the single most important local SEO asset for any small business. A properly optimized and actively maintained profile drives calls, directions, and walk-in traffic directly from Google Maps.
- GMB profile setup & full optimization
- Category selection & service area configuration
- Photo strategy & regular post publishing
- Review management & response strategy
- Local Pack ranking improvement
- Q&A monitoring & spam removal
Local Organic SEO
Ranking organically in local search means your website shows up when people in your area search for what you do — without paying per click. TIV360 builds the technical and content foundation that earns those rankings.
- Local keyword research & mapping
- Location page creation & optimization
- NAP consistency across the web
- Local citation building & cleanup
- Schema markup for local businesses
- On-page optimization for local intent
Paid Local Search & Ads
Paid search puts your business at the top of results immediately — while organic rankings build over time. TIV360 runs geotargeted campaigns matched exactly to your service area so your ad spend reaches the customers you can actually serve.
- Google Ads local campaign setup
- Service area radius targeting
- Google Local Services Ads (LSA)
- Keyword & negative keyword management
- Ad copy & landing page optimization

Social Media for Local Businesses
Social media for small businesses isn't about follower counts — it's about staying visible and relevant in your community. TIV360 builds practical social strategies that reinforce your local presence without consuming your entire week.
- Platform selection for your business type
- Content strategy & posting calendar
- Facebook & Instagram local targeting
- Community engagement strategy
- Social proof & review amplification
- Paid social for local reach
Citations & Reputation Management
Your business name, address, and phone number need to be consistent across every directory, map, and listing on the web. Inconsistencies confuse Google and cost you rankings. Negative reviews left unmanaged cost you customers.
- Citation audit & cleanup
- Yelp, Bing, Apple Maps & 50+ directories
- Duplicate listing removal
- Review generation strategy
- Review response templates & management
- Reputation monitoring & alerts

- Full local SEO site audit
- GMB & Local Pack analysis

- Search Console & GA4 review
- Actionable recommendations, not jargon
Match Your Visibility
to Your Service Area
One of the most common local SEO mistakes is targeting too broadly. A plumber who serves a 20-mile radius doesn't need to rank in cities three hours away. Every dollar and hour spent chasing customers outside your zone is a dollar and hour not spent dominating the area you actually serve.
TIV360 maps your real service geography first — then builds your SEO, paid campaigns, and content strategy around it. You grow where it counts and stop paying for visibility that doesn't convert.
Define My Service Area →Paid campaigns and GMB service areas set to your actual delivery or drive-time radius — not the whole state.
Location-specific landing pages that rank for "[service] in [city]" searches in every town you serve.
Paid ads exclude zip codes and cities outside your zone so you never pay for a click from someone you can't serve.
Blog content and service pages written for the specific towns, neighborhoods, and communities your customers live in.
Google Business Profile service area configured to show your business in Maps searches within your actual coverage zone.
As your business grows into new territories, we expand your local SEO footprint deliberately — not all at once.
A Living Proof of Concept:
50+ Local Town Directories
TIV360 doesn't just advise on local SEO — we practice it at scale. Brandon has built and actively manages a network of over 50 hyperlocal town directory websites spanning California Wine Country and Southeast Minnesota. These aren't placeholder sites — they're fully maintained local content hubs that rank for local events, businesses, news, and community resources in their respective communities. This network is our ongoing laboratory for what actually works in local search.
The Four Pillars of
Local Search Dominance
Local SEO success comes from stacking these four elements together — not from doing one well and ignoring the others.
Google Business Profile
Your GMB listing is your most visible local asset. Categories, photos, posts, reviews, and service areas all factor into whether you appear in the Local 3-Pack — the three map results that capture the majority of local clicks.
On-Site Local SEO
Your website needs location-specific pages, proper schema markup, fast load speeds, and content written for local search intent. Without this foundation, even a perfect GMB listing can only take you so far.
Citations & Authority
Consistent business listings across Google, Yelp, Bing, Apple Maps, and dozens of niche directories build the citation authority that tells Google your business is real, established, and located where you say it is.
Reviews & Reputation
Volume and recency of reviews are direct Local Pack ranking factors. More importantly, they convert searchers into customers. A strategy for earning and responding to reviews is non-negotiable for local businesses.
What TIV360 Delivers
for Local SEO Clients
No vague "ongoing optimization" promises. Here's the concrete work that gets done when TIV360 manages your local SEO.
Local SEO Audit
A full audit of your current local SEO footprint — website, GMB, citations, reviews, and competitor landscape — before any work begins.
GMB Optimization
Complete Google Business Profile setup or cleanup — categories, attributes, photos, service areas, products, and posts configured to maximize Local Pack visibility.
Service Area Strategy
A documented map of your real service geography used to align every SEO and paid campaign effort to the customers you can actually convert.
Location Page Creation
Properly optimized location and service-area pages on your WordPress site targeting the specific cities and communities in your service zone.
Citation Cleanup & Building
Consistent NAP data submitted or corrected across the most important local directories — eliminating the conflicting information that confuses Google and costs rankings.
Monthly Reporting
Clear monthly reports showing ranking changes, GMB impressions, website traffic, and call/direction data — in plain English, not SEO jargon you have to decode.
How TIV360 Builds
Your Local Presence
A methodical, repeatable process built on 13 years of local SEO work — from first audit to long-term ranking growth.
Local SEO Audit & Competitor Analysis
We start by understanding exactly where you stand — your current rankings, GMB health, citation consistency, review profile, and how you compare to the competitors already ranking in your area. This tells us where the fastest wins are and what the long-term strategy needs to focus on.
Service Area Mapping & Strategy
We define your real service geography — by city, zip code, or drive-time radius — and build a targeting strategy around it. Every tactic that follows is scoped to this zone so your budget works for the right audience.
Foundation Build-Out
GMB optimization, citation cleanup, on-site location pages, schema markup, and review strategy are all implemented in the first phase. This is the infrastructure that everything else sits on — and it has to be right before any advanced tactics are worth doing.
Ongoing Optimization & Growth
Local SEO isn't a one-time job. Monthly GMB posts, new content targeting local keywords, review generation, and performance reporting keep your rankings moving upward over time — while we stay on top of Google algorithm changes so you don't have to.
