"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.

How we did it
The strategy, led by Michelle
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.
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.
Michelle worked with Ray on keyword choices, page layouts and ongoing marketing strategy to keep traffic, calls and form submissions climbing month after month.
The numbers
365 days of growth
