FAQ

What’s the typical content cadence?

1-2 new pillar articles per month, 4-8 location / vertical landing-page updates, 4-6 GBP posts, plus social-media content in proportion to your channels.

Will you train our team or do you keep the playbook?

Both options. Most clients prefer fully-managed for the first 12 months, then we do a paid knowledge-transfer engagement (“build the playbook”) if they want to bring it in-house.

Do you have case studies in this vertical?

Discovery calls include 1-2 anonymized case studies relevant to your business model. Most clients prefer their SEO-vendor relationships stay private; we respect that and don’t post results online.

How long until I see ranking movement?

Vertical-page rankings often move within 60-90 days because long-tail intent is less contested. Brand-level rankings against incumbents take 6-9 months.
