Honest limits
This checklist covers the fundamentals, but it can't guarantee Map Pack rankings — proximity to the searcher and competitor strength are outside your control. Local SEO is ongoing work, not a one-time fix.
How to use the Local SEO Checklist
- Work through the 15 tasks top to bottom — tick each one off as you finish it.
- Your progress saves automatically in your browser; come back anytime.
- Hit 100%, then re-run the checklist quarterly — profiles decay and competitors don't sleep.
Examples
Where to start
Short on time? Do these five first: claim and verify your profile, pick the right category, write a keyword-rich description, add real photos, and start asking for reviews. Those five move the needle most.
