Local SEO in Mesa, Arizona

How people search here

Mesa is the east side of the Phoenix valley, with the Superstition Mountains at its back door, the Salt River nearby and the Cubs' spring training ballpark in town. Locals name an area by what's near it: Dobson Ranch, Red Mountain, Eastmark, Las Sendas, the Fiesta District. Where Mesa meets Tempe, Gilbert and Chandler the border is invisible, so customers search whichever name they use. Stucco ranch houses and newer subdivisions with pools and flat or tile roofs make cooling, roofing and garage doors the common calls. Keep your Google Business Profile honest about which of those cities you serve, and let local SEO follow suit.

Trades we work with here

How it starts

  1. Step 1: A call with Offer

    Your first call is with Offer Ben Saadon, the founder. You talk about your business, your area and what you want more of. No pitch deck.

  2. Step 2: A look at where you stand

    We check your Google Business Profile, your website and the searches your customers already use, and show you what we find.

  3. Step 3: A plan in plain words

    You get a short list of what we'd do first and why, so you can decide with the full picture before anything starts.

Questions owners ask

Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe: do I name them or just Mesa?

Name the ones you actually serve. The borders are invisible on the ground, and plenty of customers search their own city. Google lets a business that travels to customers list its service areas, so add the neighbors you reach and skip the rest. A page for another city makes sense only with real jobs and photos from it.

Do I need an office in Mesa to show up on Maps there?

No. A business that goes to its customers can remove its address from its profile and list the areas it serves, such as Fiesta District or Lehi, instead. What Google doesn't accept is a P.O. box or a mailbox standing in for an office, as its rules for business profiles say.

How do we start if my business is in Mesa?

With a call with Offer Ben Saadon, the founder. Tell him about your business, whether you cover all of Maricopa County or a few places like Val Vista, and the work you want more of. He'll tell you honestly what he'd do first, whether or not we work together.
