SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Local businesses lose customers when they fail to appear in Google's local pack (map results) for "near me" searches, and most owners don't know which profile fields, review signals, or directory listings are holding them back. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Google Business Profile Audit: Scores primary and secondary categories, services lists, photo count and freshness, hours accuracy, and posts recency against what actually wins the local pack. - Review Engine Builder: Compares review count, velocity, and response rate against the top 3 pack competitors and outputs an ask-for-reviews system with timing, message templates, and weekly cadence targets. - NAP Consistency Sweep: Searches the business name and phone across Yelp, Apple Maps, Bing Places, Facebook, and data aggregators, listing every inconsistent listing with its fix. - Use Case: A plumber in Austin asks "Why is [competitor] outranking me?" and receives a head-to-head profile comparison showing the competitor's exact primary category, 140 photos versus 12, and 3x review velocity, plus the prioritized fix list. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to audit your business by saying "Audit [business name, city]" to run the full local SEO workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I rank higher in Google local pack results?▼

Local pack rankings depend on relevance, distance, and prominence. Start with your Google Business Profile primary category, which is the single highest-leverage field, then build review velocity and fix NAP inconsistencies across directories.

How to audit a Google Business Profile for local SEO?▼

Check primary category exactness, secondary category coverage, complete services lists, photo count and freshness, hours accuracy including holidays, and posts recency. Compare each element against the businesses currently winning the pack for your money terms.

What is NAP consistency and why does it matter?▼

NAP means name, address, and phone number listed identically across directories like Yelp, Apple Maps, Bing Places, and Facebook. Inconsistencies erode trust signals Google uses for local rankings, so each mismatched listing needs an individual fix.

Can I use fake reviews or keyword-stuffed business names to rank faster?▼

No. Fake reviews, review gating, and keyword-stuffed business names are Google policy violations that get profiles suspended. The suspension costs far more than any temporary ranking boost, so this skill never recommends them.

How long does local SEO take to show results?▼

Local rankings move in weeks, not days. Set a re-audit at 4-6 weeks after implementing fixes and track local pack presence per money term over time to measure progress.

What is the difference between local SEO and regular SEO?▼

Local SEO targets the map pack through Google Business Profile, reviews, and directory citations, while regular SEO focuses on website content and on-page factors. This skill handles the maps-and-profile layer and complements a content-focused SEO skill.
