Local search shapes everyday decisions
Your customers search locally, and Google shows them results nearby. If you are not visible there, you don’t exist for them.

From search to visit
People who search locally often want to stop by or call soon. Local visibility brings real foot traffic.
Purchase
Close to the purchase
Local searches often happen shortly before a buying decision. That is why good local rankings bring inquiries that are likely to convert.

Every business with a physical location or a local service area benefits from local SEO. Especially these industries:

"Restaurant near me" is one of the most common local searches. We get you into the top 3.
Lawyers & law firms

Trades & service providers
Electricians, painters, plumbers: when something breaks, people search locally on their phone right away. With mobile SEO in place, you are the first one they find.

Does SEO still matter?
More than ever.
AI search engines such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity use the web as their source. Without strong SEO there is no GEO. SEO is the foundation, and GEO builds on it.
Foundation
SEO — search engine optimization
Technical basis, content, authority and rankings on Google. The foundation of all digital visibility.
Base
Extension
GEO — generative engine optimization
Visibility in ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and AI Overviews. AI systems cite what SEO makes strong.

Maximum visibility
Google rankings + AI citations = more qualified traffic from every channel.

Frequently asked questions about local SEO
How much does local SEO cost in Switzerland?
You will find the starting price in the pricing section on this page and on the pricing page. Projects with several branches or locations are quoted individually. Every engagement starts with a free local SEO check that looks at your potential and your competition.
How important are Google reviews for local SEO?
Google reviews are one of the most important ranking factors in local search. Businesses with more positive reviews and a high average rating appear far more often in the Google Maps 3-pack. Besides the number of reviews, their recency, your response rate and the review content also matter. We help you with a systematic review strategy.
What is a Google Business Profile and why do I need one?
Your Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) is your free business listing on Google. It appears in local searches and on Google Maps with your opening hours, address, photos, reviews and more. A fully optimized profile is the basis of every local SEO strategy and often the first point of contact between you and potential customers.
Do I need local SEO if I already do SEO?
Yes. Local SEO and classic SEO are separate disciplines with their own ranking factors. Classic SEO targets the organic search results, while local SEO focuses on Google Maps, your Google Business Profile, local directories and location-based searches. Without local SEO you miss the Google searches with local intent, even if your classic SEO is excellent. Google Ads also benefits from a strong local presence.
How fast do I see results with local SEO?
First improvements in Google Maps rankings often show within 2–4 weeks, especially from optimizing your Google Business Profile and building citations. Significant gains for local keywords and a stable top-3 position usually follow after 2–3 months. Local SEO generally shows results faster than classic SEO.
What are local citations and why do they matter?
Local citations are mentions of your business (name, address, phone number, or NAP for short) in online directories such as local.ch, search.ch, Yelp or industry portals. Consistent citations strengthen Google’s trust in your location data and improve your local rankings. Inconsistent or wrong listings, on the other hand, can hurt your rankings.
