Sunlight Media helps Los Angeles businesses dominate local search results through precision-focused Local SEO strategies. We optimize your Google Business Profile, local citations, and on-page signals so nearby customers can easily find and contact you.
Nearly half of all Google searches have local intent, and 76% of people who search for something nearby visit a business within a day. Without a well-optimized local presence, your company misses out on highly qualified leads who are ready to convert. Our Local SEO services in Los Angeles ensure your business appears in Google’s map pack, organic listings, and voice-activated searches.
Our Local SEO Strategy
Local SEO requires more than keywords—it’s about building a consistent, trustworthy digital footprint across the web. Here’s how we help our clients gain top positions in local search:
1. Google Business Profile Optimization
We fully optimize your Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) to include accurate categories, compelling descriptions, high-resolution images, and frequent updates. This helps you appear in the coveted local “3-pack” and improves click-through rates from mobile searches.
2. Local Keyword Research
We identify location-specific and service-related terms customers use to find you—for example, “Los Angeles web design agency” or “SEO company near me.” Each page on your site is mapped to the most relevant search phrases to improve organic reach.
3. Citation Building & Directory Listings
Our team submits your business information to high-authority local directories such as Yelp, Bing Places, Apple Maps, and niche industry platforms. Consistency in Name, Address, and Phone (NAP) data strengthens trust with search engines and increases visibility in local results.
4. On-Page Local Optimization
We enhance your site’s metadata, headings, and structured data with local keywords, schema markup, and service area details. Combined with optimized internal linking, these signals tell Google exactly where and who you serve.
5. Reviews & Reputation Management
Positive reviews heavily influence local ranking factors. We implement review-generation strategies and integrate feedback widgets to encourage happy customers to share their experiences, boosting credibility and local authority.
6. Local Link Building & Community Engagement
We earn backlinks from Los Angeles business associations, event sponsorships, and regional publications—helping you connect with real customers while signaling relevance to Google.
7. Tracking & Reporting
Each month, you receive transparent reports showing improvements in map pack rankings, organic traffic, phone calls, and directions requests. Our continuous optimization ensures steady local growth over time.

Industries We Serve
We’ve delivered measurable Local SEO success for clients in:
Professional services (law, healthcare, real estate)
Most businesses start noticing improved local visibility within three to four months. However, consistent citation updates, reviews, and on-page optimization deliver the best results over six to twelve months.
Can Local SEO help service-area businesses without a storefront?
Yes. We optimize your Google Business Profile as a service-area business (SAB), highlighting the neighborhoods or regions you serve. This allows your business to appear in map results even without a physical office open to the public.
Do you provide Local SEO services outside of Los Angeles?
Absolutely. While we specialize in Los Angeles SEO campaigns, our team manages local optimization for clients across the U.S., applying the same proven frameworks for success.
