Cretu specialises in SEO migration and local SEO services tailored specifically for Australian businesses. Our integrated approach is built on a deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities within local markets. We focus on what truly works for your specific location and audience—whether that’s optimising multiple location pages, refining your Google Business Profile, or adapting strategies to local competition in your region.
Effective local SEO doesn’t happen by chance—it begins with a deep understanding of your business and competitive landscape. At Cretu, we start every project with a comprehensive website audit to assess your current performance, site structure, device responsiveness, and overall technical health.
Next, we perform a local competitor analysis, examining how businesses in your area structure their websites, which pages they prioritise, and the keywords they target. Then, we conduct in-depth local keyword research to uncover high-value search terms your ideal customers are using.
This thorough process allows us to develop a strategy that positions your business front and centre in organic search results.
Technical SEO is just one piece of the local puzzle. At Cretu, we also focus on maximising your presence on Google Maps and local search by:
Claiming or creating your Google Business Profile (GMB)
Completing the profile with accurate and detailed information—address, phone number, services, business hours, and more
Uploading engaging images, videos, and posts that encourage interaction and build trust
Actively encouraging customer reviews and responding to every review to boost your local reputation and rankings
Together, these efforts ensure your business is not only technically sound but also highly visible to nearby customers who are ready to act.
Cretu’s SEO specialists identify high-impact keywords that align with local search intent and integrate them across your site where it matters most:
NAP (Name, Address, Phone Number) consistency: We ensure your business name, address, and phone number are consistent across your website, Google Business Profile, and other directories.
Location-specific landing pages: Whether you already have location pages or need them created from scratch, we optimise or build content tailored to each suburb, city, or service area you serve.
Metadata and descriptions: We optimise your title tags and meta descriptions with relevant local keywords to help your pages stand out in search results.
Local schema markup: We implement structured data on your location pages to provide search engines with clear context about your business.
These technical and content-driven improvements work together to boost your local visibility, attract the right customers, and support sustainable growth.
Effective local SEO relies on strong local signals. That’s why at Cretu, we ensure:
Your business is listed in reputable local directories like Yelp, True Local, and Yellow Pages to boost visibility in local search results.
NAP consistency is maintained across all online mentions of your business, including every directory listing, building trust with both search engines and users.
We create niche-specific citations by submitting your business to industry-relevant directories, helping establish topical authority and connect with the right audience.
Together, this strategic blend of copywriting and local optimisation ensures your business not only ranks well but resonates with the people most likely to convert.
Strong local SEO requires a website that performs flawlessly on mobile. Since the majority of local searches—especially those including “near me”—are done on smartphones by users ready to take action, Cretu ensures your site is fully mobile-friendly and responsive. We provide a seamless experience across all devices.
Whether someone is searching for your services while on the go or looking up your business late at night, your site needs to load quickly, look great, and be easy to navigate—especially on smaller screens. We also strategically integrate location-based mobile keywords like “near me,” “open now,” and suburb-specific terms that match how your local audience actually searches on mobile.
To show up in local search, you need to speak directly to what matters to your community. At Cretu, we create locally-focused content—such as blogs, guides, and landing pages—that highlight local events, community topics, and regional interests aligned with your services.
We seamlessly integrate location-specific keywords throughout your copy, meta descriptions, and headers to help your content rank highly in geo-targeted searches. To build trust and boost conversions, we include local testimonials and case studies from real customers in your area, turning your content into a powerful magnet for both search engines and your ideal audience.
Authority is key in local SEO, and one of the most effective ways to build it is by earning backlinks from relevant local sources. At Cretu, we help grow your online presence by identifying strategic opportunities for your business to be featured by local businesses, bloggers, and newspapers, securing high-quality backlinks.
We also leverage guest blogging opportunities on local publications and niche blogs, showcasing your expertise to a local audience while earning valuable inbound links that boost your rankings and visibility within your service area.
