The problem
Tired of SEO agencies that don't understand Hastings?
Rankings, but no calls
Many agencies chase national blog traffic. Accountants in Hastings need people close by searching "small business accountant", not readers from the other end of the country.
Losing "near me" searches
Demand rises around the end of the tax year on 31 March and when tax returns are due.
Messy listings and schema
Different addresses or phone numbers on Google, Xero Advisor Directory and old directories confuse Google and push your accounting practice down the map in Clive.
Rising cost per lead
Clients want proof of experience with their kind of business, from farms to trades to property. Paying per click for every Hastings lead gets expensive fast.
How we work
How we do local SEO for accountants.
Google Business Profile optimisation
Google ranks map results on relevance, distance and prominence. We fix your accounting practice's profile so it is eligible to rank across Hastings.
- Primary category set to “Accountant”, with tested secondary categories
- Name, address and phone made identical everywhere
- Duplicate or unclaimed listings found and merged
