The Problem

Your Business Is Not Showing Up in the Map Pack and You Are Losing Local Customers to Competitors

The Google map pack — the three business listings that appear below the map at the top of local search results — receives 44 percent of all clicks on local search results pages. Home service businesses that appear in the map pack consistently generate more calls than those that rank in the organic results below it.

Getting into and staying in the map pack requires a specific set of signals: a fully optimized Google Business Profile, consistent business information across every major directory and citation source, reviews that accumulate at a consistent pace, and location-specific content on your website. Most businesses get some of this right but not all of it.

ECode builds the complete local SEO infrastructure — Google Business Profile, citations, reviews, and location pages — that signals to Google that your business is the most relevant, most trusted result for local searches in your service area.

Not appearing in the map pack despite being the best business in the area
Inconsistent business name, address, or phone number across online directories
