We’re ADS That Matters, a local SEO agency that gets you into that map pack and keeps you there — optimizing your Google Business Profile, fixing your citations, earning the reviews that matter, and building the local signals Google rewards. Not vanity rankings. Calls, direction requests, bookings, and foot traffic. And because we run paid ads too, we use your local ad data to sharpen the SEO that actually drives customers through your door.
A local SEO agency gets your business to show up when nearby customers search — especially in Google’s local pack (the map with three businesses) and “near me” searches. That means optimizing your Google Business Profile, building consistent citations and NAP data, generating reviews, and adding local signals to your website, so you rank for the searches that bring calls, visits, and foot traffic. Local SEO is how location-based businesses turn nearby demand into customers.
Google ranks local results on three factors — proximity, relevance, and prominence. Pricing is usually a monthly package (commonly $500–$5,000+/month, plus optional listing management). Meaningful movement typically takes 2–4 months — faster than national SEO, because the competition is local, not global.
184+ local businesses ranked · 89% average increase in local leads · 2,000+ map-pack rankings won · 95%+ client retention
A fully optimized profile is often the fastest win in local SEO — and the difference between appearing in the map pack and being invisible.
| Term | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Local Pack / 3-Pack | The map with three business listings at the top of local results. |
| Proximity / Relevance / Prominence | Google's three local ranking factors. |
| Google Business Profile (GBP) | Your business listing (formerly Google My Business) that powers the map pack. |
| NAP | Name, Address, Phone — must be consistent everywhere online. |
| Citations | Mentions of your business (NAP) across directories and the web. |
| "Near Me" Searches | Location-intent searches where local results dominate. |
| Review Velocity | How steadily you earn new reviews — a prominence signal. |
| Local Landing Pages | City/service pages that build local relevance. |
| LocalBusiness Schema | Structured data that tells search engines your local details. |
Google trusts a business it sees consistently across the web. If your name, address, and phone (NAP) don’t match everywhere, that trust erodes and your rankings suffer. As part of every local SEO service, we build and clean up your citations — directories, data aggregators, industry sites, Bing Places, and Apple Maps — so your business information is accurate and consistent everywhere it appears. It’s unglamorous work, and it’s one of the biggest reasons local rankings stall.
The client’s online store was getting low organic traffic and weak sales. Pages were ranking poorly, so visibility and revenue from search were limited.
Clicks grew from 3.42K to 9.87K (+189%), impressions increased from 126K to 284K (+126%), average position improved from 37.6 to 15.4, and organic sales jumped from $8.52K to $28.16K (+230%).
This is where an ecommerce seo service earns its fee, and where general SEO agencies fall short. The technical work specific to online stores:
Fix this foundation and everything above it — content, rankings, authority — finally gets traction.
In ecommerce, your category and product pages are your money pages — so they have to do double duty: rank in search and convert the visitor.
Rankings for competitive product and category terms need authority. We build it the sustainable way — product-launch link building, digital PR that earns real coverage, and the domain authority that raises every page’s ceiling. White-hat only; no schemes that risk a penalty on a store you depend on.
Every ecommerce platform has its own SEO quirks, and knowing them is half the battle:
Here’s what a pure-SEO agency can’t offer a store owner: we run paid media too, and for ecommerce that’s a genuine edge.
Shoppers increasingly research — and get recommendations — inside Google AI Overviews and AI assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity, often before they reach a store. That changes ecommerce SEO:
No black boxes. We track GA4 ecommerce reporting, Google Search Console, and rank data — organic revenue, product and category rankings, organic conversion rate, and share of voice — and report in plain English on what’s driving orders, not just traffic. You get always-on dashboard access and a real strategist who explains what’s next.
Ecommerce SEO is an ongoing, compounding investment, so it’s almost always a monthly package — but how much work it takes swings hugely with your catalogue. A small store building organic revenue and a 10,000-SKU catalogue in a competitive category are completely different jobs, which is why we scale the package to your store rather than post one number that fits neither.
We work in tiers — an entry level for small-to-mid catalogues building organic revenue, a higher level for larger stores in competitive categories, and fully custom for large, complex catalogues — plus a one-time audit that hands you a deep ecommerce SEO diagnostic and roadmap you can act on. We’ll recommend the right fit for your store.

Yes. We generally recommend a minimum monthly advertising budget of $3,000–$5,000. This provides enough conversion data for paid platforms to optimize campaigns effectively and produce statistically meaningful results.
We offer flexible engagement models based on your business needs. While long-term partnerships typically achieve the strongest results, our focus is on delivering measurable performance rather than locking clients into lengthy contracts.
You do. Your Google Ads account, Meta Ads account, Google Analytics, tracking setup, conversion data, audiences, and creative assets remain your property. We believe every client should retain full ownership of their marketing assets.
Most campaigns begin generating meaningful optimization data within the first 30 days. Significant improvements in ROAS, CAC, and revenue typically occur within 60 to 90 days, depending on your industry, competition, advertising budget, and historical account performance.
A good Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) depends on your profit margins and business model. While many businesses target 3:1 ROAS, ecommerce brands with lower margins may require higher returns, whereas businesses with high customer lifetime value (LTV) can remain profitable with a lower ROAS.
An agency provides immediate access to experienced specialists across Google Ads, Meta Ads, analytics, creative strategy, SEO, CRO, and attribution- without the cost of hiring and managing multiple full-time employees. Many growing businesses find agencies more cost-effective until they reach enterprise scale.
We focus on business metrics that directly impact profitability, including:
Digital marketing includes every online marketing activity, including SEO, content marketing, social media, email marketing, and paid advertising. Performance marketing focuses specifically on measurable results where campaigns are optimized around outcomes like revenue, leads, ROAS, and customer acquisition rather than awareness or impressions.
We manage campaigns across Google Ads, Performance Max, Meta Ads, Facebook Ads, Instagram Ads, TikTok Ads, YouTube Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Google Shopping, Display Advertising, as well as SEO, Email Marketing, and Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO).
Every campaign is tracked using Google Analytics 4 (GA4), Google Tag Manager (GTM), Meta Conversions API, Server-Side Tracking, Consent Mode v2, and Looker Studio dashboards. This allows us to accurately measure conversions, attribution, revenue, ROAS, CAC, and overall marketing performance.
Clients receive access to real-time reporting dashboards, regular campaign updates, monthly performance reports, and bi-weekly Zoom meetings. Every report focuses on measurable business outcomes, helping you understand exactly how your advertising investment is performing.
Ads That Matters' work reduced the client's CPL by 62% and increased lead quality by 67%. The team was responsive, delivered work on time, and provided weekly updates and monthly reports. Ads That Matters was data-driven, focused on the client's CPL metric, and understood the client's business.
After the iOS 14 update, our Facebook campaigns stopped producing quality leads. The team implemented CRM integration, Offline Conversions, and first-party data strategies, reducing our Cost Per Lead from $42 to $31 while significantly improving lead quality.”
We had worked with multiple agencies before ADS That Matters, but none could scale our campaigns profitably. In just 60 days, they increased sales by 45% while maintaining strong ROAS. Their communication and reporting are second to none.
The team doesn’t just manage ads—they understand the numbers behind business growth. Every recommendation is backed by data, and their reporting gives us complete visibility into ROAS, CAC, and revenue. They truly feel like an extension of our marketing team.
