Four boring jobs, not a dark art: a Google Business Profile that says what you do, your name, address and number agreeing everywhere, a page for every service, and honest pages for the towns you actually work in. I did all four for V Signs.

How it works
Three steps. Then you're live.
01
Baseline
I capture what's true today — profile views, calls, search terms, the listings that disagree — so the after means something.

Report
Monthly: what ranked, what rang, what changed. Numbers from Google, not from me.

Questions
Straight answers.
Do I need a Google Business Profile if I have a website?
Yes. The website gets you chosen; the profile gets you seen. A good site can sit invisible until the profile is fixed. The website packs →
Why does Google show my old phone number?
Google didn't invent it — it copied it from somewhere. Your old site, Yell, Facebook, or one of the company-data sites that publish your registered office from Companies House (often your accountant's). Google, Bing and Apple all read those. I find every copy and fix them in order, so it can't drift back.
Are town pages against Google's rules?
Fake ones are. A page per town is fine when it says something true about that town — real jobs, real drive time — and never claims an address you don't have. That's the only kind I build. What the V Signs numbers did →
How long before it works?
The profile changes show in days. Listings take weeks to propagate. Pages and towns build over months. I show you the numbers as they land. Or let the reels carry the keywords →
Can I do it myself?
The profile and the review replies, yes — and I'll tell you how. The listings and the pages are worth paying for. Send me the basics →
What do you need from me?
Access to the profile (shared safely), every old number and address, and photos of real jobs.
