Local SEO Solutions Dominate Local Search Results
Google Business Profile Optimisation
Want to show up on Google Maps and local search when customers look for services like yours? That starts with a strong Google Business Profile. We help set up, verify and fully optimise your listing so you appear in the right place at the right time.
Keeping your business info accurate – like your name, address and phone number – builds trust with both Google and potential customers. We also add photos, post updates and highlight offers to make your listing stand out and stay active.
Key elements:
- Claim and verify your Google Business Profile
- Make sure your contact details (NAP) are consistent across the web
- Add eye-catching photos and videos of your business
- Post regular updates, offers, or events to stay visible and relevant
Local Citations & Directory Listings
Local citations are online mentions of your business – like your name, address and phone number – on sites like Yelp, Facebook, or industry directories. They help Google confirm your business is real, local and trustworthy.
We make sure your details are consistent everywhere. Even small mistakes (like the wrong phone number on an old listing) can hurt your rankings. We clean that up and build new listings on reputable sites to boost your online presence.
Key elements:
- Make sure your business info is accurate across all platforms
- Fix or remove incorrect listings
- Submit your business to top directories
- Help generate reviews to build trust and visibility
Reviews & Reputation Management
Reviews and reputation management are critical components of local SEO, as they directly impact how potential customers perceive your business and influence search engine rankings. Encouraging satisfied customers to leave positive reviews – especially on Google Business Profile – is essential because these reviews enhance your business’s credibility and increase trust among local consumers.
Search engines consider the quantity, quality, and recency of reviews when determining local rankings. Additionally, actively managing your reputation by responding professionally to both positive and negative feedback shows that you value customer input and are committed to providing excellent service, which can improve customer loyalty and engagement.
Key elements:
- Encourage happy customers to leave honest reviews
- Showcase positive reviews on your website
- Use reviews to identify and address recurring issues
- Respond promptly and professionally to all reviews
Local Content & On-Page Optimisation
Your website should speak to local customers and search engines. We help create pages and content that mention your location naturally, so you rank when people search for services “near me” or in your city.
From service pages for each location to blog posts about local topics, we tailor content that connects with your audience. We also add code (formally known as schema markup) behind the scenes to help Google understand where you’re based and what you offer.
Key elements:
- Build landing pages for each service area or location
- Add local keywords and content that target your region
- Include local reviews or success stories
- Keep content fresh with updates tied to local events or news

I dipped my toe in the water with Brad with the SEO of my previous website and later hired Click Return to also handle my Google Adwords. When I was ready to update my website they were the natural choice to create it. Brad advised on a WordPress template site that gave me the look I wanted but without the high costs of a bespoke site. I don’t think that anyone ever realises that it isn’t a bespoke site. I have had so many compliments from prospective clients about the website telling me that’s the reason they picked up the phone. I like to think some of that is the photographs of my work! However, I know it’s also to do with the way the site looks and functions. In it’s first year it brought a return that was many times my investment and it has done so every year since. The Click Return team have helped us learn to add to and change the website in house. This gives us control of the basic every day maintenance and means we only need to get the “big guns” in for the hard stuff. In regular phone/on-line meetings Brad advises and guides us with SEO and Adwords so things keep going the way that we need them to. Thanks Brad and Click Return.

I am so grateful for everything that Click Return has achieved with regard to my website. Having attempted to do it myself, I have to admit it was a complete mess. From beginning to end I was impressed with their expertise and professionalism. Everyone on the team was approachable, helpful, and friendly, attributes that were vital for a novice such as me, resulting in a website that far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend the training programme. It has given me the confidence to experiment and add to the website whenever needed and their monthly statistics highlight areas that may need improvement and more focus. The difference it has made to my business is tremendous, it will always be a work in progress but I know that help if needed, is only a phone call away. Thank you so very much to everyone on the team.

Brad is really passionate about SEO. Orchard Recruitment has continued to use Brad at Click Return to drive our SEO strategy and specifically PPC campaigns for individual recruitment campaigns. He takes the pain out of SEO and can do in an hour what would take most normal mortals a few days. Money well spent allowing us to focus on what we are good at…winning recruitment business and identifying great candidates. If I wanted to spend hours pouring over Excel spread sheets, I’d be doing what Brad does. No, let Brad and his team take the strain. I can highly recommend Brad Bishop and his team at Click Return to you.

We have been working with the team at Click Return for over 20 years now and they work on a number of areas of our business – they manage our PPC advertising, email marketing and also our competitions. 2016 saw the launch of our latest catalogue, our previous one having been published in 2012. Brad was hugely involved in the production of it, from setting it, running the online competition to find a photograph for the front cover to producing a digital version of it. He also had a large input into the production of our AKM – our workshop manual. We now have their designer, Stuart, in our office two days a week which is great as he really gets to know our business and what we are looking at for our designs. Stuart creates numerous original animated banners for us, designs t-shirts, product packaging and artwork for our competitions and events. We have always received a prompt service from Click Return and would highly recommend them.

Brad has undertaken work for us over quite a few years now and we keep coming back which is testament to the satisfaction and results we have received. I have experienced Brads skills on SEO marketing, web site building and web site maintenance on various campaigns. The amount of research and work behind the scenes Brad does is amazing and you can see that this works by the results we have experienced. By following the advice and practices our enquiries increased, our conversion rate increased, and therefore our profit increased. Many thanks and long may this relationship continue.

As an IT Consultant, I have dealt with a multitude of SEO and web analytic related companies but none have impressed me as much as Brad. He has a full and in-depth understanding of this critical aspect of business marketing and has helped dramatically improve the fortunes of many of our mutual clients. Brad mixes an absolute knowledge of his chosen business sector with an easy, approachable manner which results in the perfect combination for anyone requiring specialist SEO and web analysis. I would have no hesitation in recommending Brad in this sphere of business.

Local SEO Faqs
Local SEO helps your business appear in search results when people nearby are looking for your products or services. It increases visibility on Google Maps and local search listings, driving highly qualified leads who are ready to buy. Traditional SEO focuses on improving rankings nationally or globally, while Local SEO targets visibility in a specific geographic area. It’s ideal for businesses that rely on local customers or in-person visits. An optimised Google Business Profile increases your chances of appearing in Google’s local map pack. Completing your profile, adding photos, updating your hours, and responding to reviews all signal trust and relevance to Google. Extremely important. Positive, frequent reviews improve trust with both Google and potential customers. They can directly impact your local ranking and conversion rate. Consistent citations across reputable directories reinforce your business’s legitimacy and help Google confirm your location details, improving your ranking in local searches. Google prioritises proximity, relevance, and prominence. This includes your business’s physical location, website optimisation, reviews, backlinks, and overall online authority. At least once a month. Regular updates – such as new photos, posts, and offers – signal to Google that your business is active and trustworthy, helping you maintain higher rankings.
