Local SEO is what makes your business show up when someone searches for what you offer in Barcelona or in your neighbourhood: on the Google map and in the top results. I'm Àlex Martínez, an SEO consultant in Barcelona: I set up your Google Business Profile, reviews, directory listings and website, and tell you the price before we start.
What I do so people nearby find you
What matters most in local searches, reviewed and set up properly.
Google Business Profile
Categories, services, opening hours, photos and description, complete and written for what your customers search for.
Reviews
I help you ask your customers for reviews and reply to them well. I never buy reviews.
Directory listings
Your business listed on the directories that matter, with the same name, address and phone number everywhere.
Your website, ready for your area
Titles, copy and local business data so Google knows where you work and what you offer.
Profile posts
News and offers on your Google profile so it looks active.
Tracking
Calls, website visits and searches from your profile, so you know what works.
For businesses looking for customers nearby
If your customers are in your city or neighbourhood, local SEO is where to start.

Why local SEO is different
When someone searches for a service they want to visit or call, Google shows them a map with three businesses first. Having a website is not enough to get there: your profile, your reviews and consistent details everywhere all count. I explain it in what local SEO is.
- Showing up on the Google map in your area
- More calls and visits from your profile
- Reviews that build trust
- The same details on Google, directories and your website

Local SEO FAQs
What’s the difference between local SEO and regular SEO?
Local SEO focuses on searches tied to an area, such as "dentist in Gràcia" or "accountant Barcelona". Your Google profile, your reviews and consistent details everywhere matter a lot there, as well as your website.
How much does local SEO cost?
It depends on your starting point: whether you already have a profile, how many reviews you have, the state of your website and how much competition there is in your area. I give you a fixed price before we start, both for a one-off setup and for monthly follow-up.
Do I need premises open to the public?
No. If you go to your customers or work across an area, your Google profile can show your service area without showing your address.
How long does it take to see results?
Changes to your profile can show within a few weeks. The website and authority usually take longer: the first solid results tend to come within 2 to 3 months.
Do you manage reviews?
I help you ask your customers for reviews in a simple way and reply to them well, including negative ones. I never buy or make up reviews: Google penalises it.
Do you only work in Barcelona?
No. I’m based in Barcelona, but local SEO works the same in any city or region, and I do it remotely.
