How to read this report

Visibility %

The percentage of the 169 map locations where this business appears in any Google Maps search result. Higher is better.

Map Pack / 3-Pack

Google shows a box of 3 local businesses at the top of results before organic links. Appearing here drives the most calls and clicks. Map Pack % shows what share of the grid earns that top-3 position.

13×13 Grid

Rankings are tracked at 169 specific geographic points across the service area — one every mile in every direction. Each colored dot on the grid shows the ranking at that exact location.

The problem

Alpine Plumbing, Heating, and Air serves the San Dimas area with a full range of home services — plumbing repair, gas line work, water treatment, and HVAC. Despite strong service quality, the business was largely invisible in Google local search at campaign start. Rankings across all four core keywords sat in the 10–20 range across most of the service grid, with Map Pack presence ranging from 0% to 1%.

Business impact
When a business moves from ranking outside the top 15 to ranking #1 across most of its service area, the real-world effect is straightforward: more customers find it first. Before this campaign, someone in San Dimas searching for water softener repair, garbage disposal help, gas line work, or HVAC services would rarely see Alpine Plumbing, Heating, and Air in their results. Today, they are the first result across the majority of the service area for all four of those searches.
The Map Pack is where most local search clicks go. At 0–1% Map Pack presence to start, Alpine was effectively invisible to anyone who did not already know the name. At 73–100% Map Pack coverage across four service lines, the business now appears before competitors in the local results box for nearly every search in the area — the equivalent of moving from the back of the room to the front door. The volume of new customer inquiries follows that shift directly.

How We Maintain These Results

Achieving strong Map Pack coverage is only half the job. Local rankings are dynamic — competitors optimize, Google updates its algorithm, and signals need to stay fresh. These are the ongoing workstreams that protect and continue to grow the results above:

GBP active management

Weekly posts, photo updates, and service descriptions keep the listing signaling relevance to Google. Inactive listings lose ground to competitors who post consistently.

Review pipeline

Google shows a box of 3 local businesses at the top of results before organic links. Appearing here drives the most calls and clicks. Map Pack % shows what share of the grid earns that top-3 position.

Citation monitoring

NAP consistency can drift as directories update their data. We monitor and correct any inconsistencies that appear across the citation network.

Ranking velocity tracking

Monthly grid snapshots track whether each keyword is holding, gaining, or showing early signs of slippage so we can respond before rankings drop.

Opportunity expansion

As the green core saturates, we shift optimization focus to the next ring of grid points, or target a new service/location. Progress compounds: each new zone captured becomes the foundation for the next.

The long game
Local SEO compounds. The rankings documented in this case study are not a one-time result that will hold on its own — they are the product of sustained, consistent optimization. The same methodology that built these numbers is what keeps them and grows them. That is why clients who stay with the campaign see results improve month over month, not just at launch.
