What is SEO & Why Does It Matter for Your Business?
🔍 What is SEO?
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is how your website gets found online. It's what helps your business show up when someone searches for “electrician near me” or “best cleaning service in Christchurch.” Without SEO, you're invisible to most customers.
⚙️ How does SEO actually work?
Google uses over 200 factors to decide who ranks on page one. This includes keywords, mobile speed, backlinks, site structure, and more. We handle all of that for you so you don’t have to.
⏳ How long does SEO take to work?
Most businesses see traction in 1–3 months. In busier areas like Auckland or Wellington, it can take 3–6 months. But once you're ranking, you’ll consistently attract new customers without paying for every click.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to rank on page 1 of Google?
Most clients start seeing noticeable ranking improvements within 30 to 90 days. For high-competition industries or cities, it may take 4 to 6 months for top rankings.
What is local SEO and how does it help my business?
Local SEO helps your business appear in Google search and maps when people nearby search for your services like “plumber near me” or “electrician in Auckland”.
How much does local SEO cost in New Zealand?
Our SEO packages start at $500/month for smaller towns and can go up to $4,500/month for competitive cities and industries like electrical, roofing, or plumbing.
Can SEO guarantee more leads and phone calls?
We don’t guarantee rankings, but we do guarantee growth in visibility, traffic, and leads. Many clients report getting calls within the first few weeks.
What’s the difference between SEO and Google Ads?
SEO is a long-term investment that earns you free traffic from Google. Google Ads is a paid strategy where you show up instantly, but must keep paying to stay visible.
What industries benefit most from local SEO?
Service-based businesses like lawn care, cleaning, trades, health, and home services see the biggest impact from local SEO especially when tied to Google Maps.
How does your AI Call Answering Agent work?
Our AI agent answers your calls 24/7, qualifies leads, and emails you the details in real-time perfect for tradies or solo operators who can’t always pick up the phone.
Can I improve my Google Business Profile without a website?
Yes, but results are limited. A well-optimized website paired with a Google Business Profile drives better rankings, more traffic, and builds trust with potential customers.
Is it worth doing SEO for a new business?
Absolutely. The earlier you start, the faster you build authority. We help new businesses get ranked quickly so they don’t fall behind established competitors.
