What Google looks at

Google ranks local results on three things: how relevant your business is to the search, how close you are to the person searching, and how prominent you are, which includes reviews and links. You can't move your office, but you can work on the other two.

The local SEO checklist

Google Business Profile

Correct category, services, hours, photos and a description that uses the words customers search.

Consistent details

The same business name, address and phone number on your site, Google and UAE directories.

Service pages

One page per service and area, written for what people in Dubai actually type.

Reviews

A simple way to ask happy customers for reviews, and replies to every one.

Mistakes I see in Dubai

  • A Google profile in the wrong category, or with no services listed
  • Different phone numbers on the website, Google and directories
  • One generic services page instead of a page per service
  • No reviews strategy, so competitors with more reviews win the map
  • A slow website on mobile, where most local searches happen

What I do

I audit your Google Business Profile and website, fix the basics, write local service pages, set up a review request flow and track calls, direction requests and enquiries from search. It's priced as a fixed setup fee in AED, with optional monthly content after that.

Quick win

If you do one thing today, complete every field in your Google Business Profile and add real photos. It costs nothing and it's often the fastest improvement for a local business.

Questions people in Dubai ask

I charge a fixed setup fee in AED for the audit and fixes, plus an optional monthly fee for ongoing content and reviews. It's priced at freelancer rates.
Fixing your Google Business Profile can help within weeks. Ranking service pages usually takes a few months, depending on competition in your area.
A Google Business Profile can rank on its own, but a fast website with service pages helps you rank for more searches and turns more visitors into customers.
No one can honestly guarantee rankings. I can make sure everything in your control is done properly and show you the results each month.
