The problem
Most people searching for a local service never look past the first three businesses on the map. If you aren't there, your phone stays quiet, however good your work is.

About
Talha Afzal
Hi, I'm Talha.
For the last two years I've focused on one thing: getting local businesses found on Google. I learned it by building my own local sites, which showed me what moves the Map Pack and what's just noise.
I work with small service businesses, keep the process simple, and send clear written updates so you always know what your money is doing.

Good questions
How long until I see results?+
Profile fixes can show movement within a few weeks. Steady Map Pack gains usually take 2 to 4 months, longer in competitive cities.
Can you guarantee the #1 spot?+
No, and be careful with anyone who does. Google decides rankings. I promise clear work, honest reporting and fixes based on what's ranking in your area.
Which countries do you work with?+
Mainly the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. I also work with businesses in Pakistan.
What do you need from me to start?+
Manager access to your Google Business Profile, website access if it's included, and a short message about your main services and service area.
How do we stay in touch?+
WhatsApp or email, whichever you prefer. Every step comes with a written update, so nothing gets lost.
What's in the free audit?+
A check of your Google Business Profile, a look at your website, and a comparison with your top local competitors, with the top fixes listed.
