Set Your Clients Up for Success
Build a Strong Foundation.
Struggling to Get in the 3-Pack?
Strategized for SERP Increases
The map pack is highly-prized, page 1 real estate—it’s about time you treat it as such. Over 50% of the 1st page of maps real estate is eaten up by ads. To secure your spot, you need proven local SEO services designed to increase your client’s online visibility, build their brand prominence, and increase their listing relevance.Â
So what are the signals that really matter? Citations? Clean-Up? Links? Reviews? Geo-Tags? Don’t waste time guessing. We optimize the local ranking factors that matter, based on our rigorous SEO testing with the Mad Scientist. But no longer can you rely on citations alone, those days are gone. Instead, we create powerful signals that create trust and authority for your brand. And trusted, authoritative brands rank higher, both in the 3 pack and organically.
SEO You Can Rely On
Tested, Proven
Strategy
Our strategic approach is built on proven local maps strategies that consistently drive 3-Pack visibility. These aren’t just SEO theories—they’re tested tactics straight from the SEO Mad Scientist’s lab, refined in real-world campaigns across countless niches. And we’re always continuing to test! We actually rank our own Google My Business listings across many competitive markets and have a keen understanding of exactly which signals are moving the needle and gaining local SERP rankings.
From foundational on-page work to advanced signal building, these tactics are designed to set the stage for long-term growth. Every GBP Accelerated campaign is backed by ongoing testing and data, ensuring you’re leveraging what’s working right now in local SEO.
And the data doesn’t lie: in nearly every 3-Pack case study since Google’s rollout, 3 to 5 out of every 10 searchers click on the map listings. That’s a massive opportunity. With the SEO Mad Scientist behind the strategy and WEB20’s experienced execution, you’ve got everything you need to help your clients earn a top spot and keep it.
Your Local SEO Blueprint,
Delivered In 3
Strategic Phases
We’ve simplified what works into a powerful, phased system. Each phase builds on the last—setting the stage for long-term local success. We start with a deep competitive audit and brand foundation, then move into full listing optimization, and finish with advanced signal stacking.
No guesswork. No wasted effort. Just a smart, tested structure that ensures your clients are fully prepared to climb the map pack. Whether you choose all three phases or start with one, you’re getting a proven setup that aligns with how Google evaluates local businesses today.
Plus, your agency eliminates the logistical and costly nightmare of handling every aspect of campaign setup. Your project managers can suddenly handle 4 or 5 times their current client load and improve the overall customer relationship journey allowing you to scale much faster than if your team had to deal with fulfillment. We already have the systems in place to handle your growth. Let us take the work off your plate!
Laying the Groundwork
The Strength of
Signal Building
In the first phase, our focus is on identifying the specific strategies needed to compete in the local market, creating a strong brand foundation, and creating high-impact local and niche signals that can help produce early wins and visibility increases. Then we really get to work in phase 2 and phase 3.
In Phase 1 of our Accelerated SEO campaign, everything starts with strategy. We analyze the competitive landscape, audit your client’s current footprint, and identify exactly what’s needed to compete in their local market. From there, we build a rock-solid foundation—optimizing your homepage or location page, aligning NAP consistency, and setting up the assets needed for long-term success.
But what really makes this phase stand out is the signal building. We deploy high-impact local and niche-relevant signals designed to boost visibility fast—think foundational citations, brand mentions, and early authority links. These aren’t random backlinks. They’re curated signals that Google trusts, built to support local relevance and lay the groundwork for climbing into the 3-Pack.
Then comes Phase 2 and 3—where we turn up the heat. With the groundwork in place, we start stacking power, authority, and momentum.
Unmatched Insight Into What Moves the Map Pack.
Local Expertise
Backed by Results
There’s no agency in the world who can match our vast experience in all things local SEO. Over 6,400 local SEO Campaigns completed since 2015 gives us a tremendous advantage, we can definitively see which tactics produce results and which don’t. Combine that with our constant ongoing testing in areas such as local link strategies, My Maps and driving direction maps, geo-local networks, Google Authority Stacks, which citations and directories actually matter, semantic research and where and how to use your local keywords for relevancy, and many other areas designed to increase a brand’s prominence and relevance, and online visibility.
Our core goal is to provide an ROI. Not only to you the marketer and agency owner, but also to your client. Even though your client will never know we exist, we do care about each listing we optimize and rank. We understand that this listing is probably the lifeblood of the business. It needs to be protected and nurtured to ensure lasting rankings to produce a great ROI for your client. With our wholesale price structure agencies are easily reselling our GBP packages (formerly GMB packages) at 100% to 300% markups and it is worth every penny.

Know exactly what you’re getting—and how it drives real results.
Despite our overwhelming success with Google My Business Optimization services, there are over 100 local ranking factors that come into play. We discuss this in our Local Ranking Factors blog post, and you can learn more about these factors on Moz’s blog post too.
Here are some reasons you may not reach the 3 pack:
- Not having an address in the city you are trying to rank for (Local Maps reward local businesses)
- Not ranking high enough organically in blended algorithm maps results (Rank = Prominence)
- Previous spammy link building to your business GMB listing (Don’t spam Google!!)
- Multiple Businesses with similar names, associations, owners, or addresses in close proximity.
Simply submit a list of existing accounts or citations when you submit your campaign information and we will replace those accounts or listings with alternatives. We try to avoid building duplicates so we ask that you please try to be as precise with this information as possible. If you do not have a list of existing citations or accounts we will do our best to search for existing accounts before we build but there is no guarantee we will find them all.
Yes we use a white label rank tracker to track up to 25 local keyword variations that pull a map result. We allow you to submit 5 main target keywords per campaign and use variations of those. You receive a view key for the duration of the project that you can share with clients and use to monitor and measure performance KPIs. You will also get geo grid style reporting at key points in your campaign.Â
We cannot work on your GMB order without access to your account. The easiest method of granting this is to make us a manager of the listing.
​​There are two other options for allowing us the access we need to optimize your account.
First, you can choose to supply our team with your Google login credentials associated with your GMB account.
Second, you may also choose to create a new Gmail and make that account a manager and afterwards provide us the logins to this email/account.Â
Additionally, please ensure that two-step verification is turned off, as we cannot start an order with this in place. No matter how you choose to give us access to your account, don’t forget about supplying the recovery info!
Once your order has been set up by our team and we have the proper access to your GMB account, work can begin on your campaign. You will be able to see when your order is started, as well as view key reports and notes, directly from the management section of your order dashboard. Your deliverables will be updated on a regular basis as your campaign progresses, and you can share a white label report link directly with your client.Â
A consistent NAP is still very important to local rankings. If your client’s NAP details change during the course of the campaign there will be an additional fee required to change or update any work already completed.
There is no concrete turnaround time for these projects. You will be able to view all actionable items, the order in which they will be completed, and the completed files for each part of your campaign in real time. We will progress through the tasks listed in each part of the campaign – barring any delays due to account access issues or 3rd party platform issues that we are not responsible for – and you should expect your campaign to be completed promptly in the given time frame.Â
Most clients are reporting seeing gains within only days or weeks of campaigns starting, but there is no way to pinpoint an exact date. But because these are some of the best methods, the results always outperform anything you would get from lesser quality providers.
If you have any questions about your order please email support@web20ranker.com.
Yes absolutely! You will have access to your order dashboard throughout your campaign so that you can view live updates at any time. This report shows the progress each month along with links to each of that month’s deliverables.
We also provide a Looker Studio report with Geo-Grid comparisons, as well as local insights data.
Additionally, we provide an advanced Local SEO Audit at the start of the project as well as GMB insight comparisons so you can easily show the results of the campaigns to your client every step of the way.Â
A complete list of all deliverables and everything we create or build can be found in our sample report.
No, this is not something that we can help you with. Our Google Optimization campaigns require a verified GMB listing prior to beginning any local SEO work.
Recovery info is a Google security measure, which allows you to provide a backup email and phone number which you can use if you are ever locked out of your account. As a security measure, it adds another step for anyone trying to access your account without permission. Recovery info is important for our team, as much of the work will be done from locations that are generally not where your last login occurred, causing Google to enact the security measure. To find out how to locate your recovery info for your order, check out our Recovery Info sheet.
Through the order management section of your dashboard, you will be able to watch the full process we use to optimize your GMB listing. Once complete, you will be sent a Final Report for your GMB order.
Nothing will happen to any existing optimization that was already completed. Your links, social accounts, citations, created content all belong to you after they are paid for. If you cancel we simply complete any existing tasks for that month that you may have outstanding and close your subscription.
There is no refund after work is performed, otherwise, you can contact us anytime for a full refund on any tasks not started.
You can schedule a call via the GMB department’s email listed below (gmb@web20ranker.com) if you are a current white label GMB client. We can provide you with one complimentary 15-minute call each month. Calls must be scheduled by email first and it is only available for existing white label GMB clients.
Because we use AI generated content in order to provide unique descriptions for all projects in a cost effective and efficient way, there are a few niches that we are unable to provide the free included AI generated descriptions for. These niches include:
-CBD/Marijuana (both medicinal and recreational content is prohibited)
-Unlawful or promoting unlawful activity
-Defamatory, discriminatory, or mean-spirited content, including references or commentary about religion, race, sexual orientation, gender, national/ethnic origin, or other targeted groups
-Adult Content, including Male Enhancement and Adult Entertainment industries
-Gambling/Casino/Payday Loans
Unfortunately, if your brand falls into any of the above categories, our team will need to use provided descriptions only, or you will need to purchase the Premium Handwritten Content Upgrade to get unique descriptions for these niches.
