How local ranking actually works

Three levers

Ranking is not a mystery. It is plumbing.

Google needs to know what you do, where you do it, and that your site loads. Most local sites fail at least one of those. Fixing them is unglamorous and it works.

Your Google listing outranks your website.

For local searches the map pack sits above everything. Categories, service areas, photos, hours and Q&A all feed it — and most listings are half-filled and never touched again.

Named service areas, not a vague radius.

Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Langley, Surrey, Mission, Maple Ridge, Aldergrove. Marked up in schema so there is no ambiguity about where you actually work.

Someone searches near you.They type your trade and their city into a phone. Three results sit above the fold. Everything below is invisible.

Google decides in milliseconds.Proximity, relevance, prominence. Two of those three you can actually change — and most of your competitors have not.

You are in the three.Listing complete, site fast, schema clean, reviews flowing. That is the whole job.
