Deliverables

What Local SEO delivers.

A defined geographic scope

Agree the locations, services, search contexts and competitors included in the review.

Location-level priorities

Identify which profiles, service pages or business facts need attention and why.

Connected profile and website work

Managed priorities may include Business Profile alignment, location-page improvements, internal links and review-process recommendations.

Implementation or measurement

Managed Local SEO runs alongside Sophrono Search. Portfolio Measurement gives your own team the findings to act on.

We shape the work around your priorities and report against the measures we agree at the start. Search engines and AI systems make the final ranking decisions; we make the case for your pages as strong as it can be.

Responsibility and scope

Who does what in Local SEO.

Sophrono's role

In managed plans, Sophrono completes the agreed local-search work. Portfolio Measurement provides analysis for your team.

Your team's role

Your team confirms eligibility, operating hours, services, locations and other business facts, coordinates local approvals and owns customer-facing operating processes.

Outside the engagement

Quoted separately: large location builds, migrations and work beyond the plan. Portfolio Measurement covers analysis; implementation is a managed plan.

Cadence

Managed plans include monthly review; Local Growth adds a weekly pulse. Portfolio measurement is scoped separately.

How the first work cycle begins

Confirm the priority locations, business facts and access. Review the local observations, agree implementation owners and focus the first work cycle on the most relevant gaps.

Pricing

Local SEO plans and pricing.

Each plan shows where pricing starts and the coverage, review cadence and hands-on capacity at that level. Your price is quoted to your markets, locations and competitors, and confirmed in writing before work begins. You approve any work beyond the agreed scope before it starts.
