"I've had a positive experience with Localsearch taking over my website and marketing. Michelle from Wagga helped start up the website, assisting with marketing strategies, key words and layouts to help create an effective website. After a couple months with the team, I can confidently say I'm tracking more online work than before. They have a great team and are always trying to further develop strategies and increase traffic to your business."

How we did it

The strategy, led by Michelle

1
Step 1
Local strategist on the ground

Ray worked with Michelle, our local digital strategist in Wagga Wagga, to map out exactly why the old website wasn't ringing and what a high-performing one needed to look like.

2
Step 2
LocalVis setup across every touchpoint

Using LocalVis, we set up Ray's website, Google Business Profile and Localsearch Profile — making sure business details were consistent across every platform customers use to find a roofer or plumber.

3
Step 3
Keywords, layouts and ongoing strategy

Michelle worked with Ray on keyword choices, page layouts and ongoing marketing strategy to keep traffic, calls and form submissions climbing month after month.
