Our Team

The Practitioners Behind the Rankings

Ranking in the Local 3-Pack requires more than a verified Google Business Profile. You need a tactical advantage. The local search environment is brutal. Algorithms shift constantly. Competitors spam fake reviews to steal your spot. Map pins disappear overnight without warning.

We built this team out of necessity. You need practitioners.

Our authors spend their days inside Google Maps. We test ranking signals, audit local citations, and recover suspended profiles. We document what works right now on the ground. We ignore the noise. We focus entirely on the signal.

Jade Anim, Lead Local SEO Specialist

Jade Anim spent the last seven years tearing apart local search algorithms. She fixes suspended profiles. She forces map pins to stick. She drives actual foot traffic to brick-and-mortar stores. Her background covers local, national, and AI-driven SEO strategies.

She built our core GBP audit framework after watching hundreds of businesses lose their rankings to spam accounts. Jade tests AI tools for local content generation. She filters out the garbage to find the exact prompts that move the needle for local relevance.

Jade ignores vanity metrics. If a tactic does not increase phone calls or driving directions, she discards it.

Mateo Reyes, Technical Maps Practitioner

Mateo handles the friction of local citations and data aggregators. He spent four years managing multi-location franchises across North America. He knows exactly why your address formatting is tanking your local visibility.

He writes our technical guides on API integrations and map listing management. Mateo strips away the confusion surrounding duplicate listings. He gives you the exact steps to clean up your digital footprint.

Priya Sharma, Algorithm Researcher

Priya tracks the drumbeat of Google’s unannounced local updates. She monitors proximity factors, review sentiment weight, and category adjustments. Before joining us, she ran local search campaigns for a competitive network of urgent care clinics.

She brings high-resolution data analysis to our ranking signal reports. Priya spots the subtle shifts in the Local Pack before the major SEO software tools catch on.

Our Publishing Reality

We reject theory. Every guide on this site stems from a live campaign. If we write about a Google Business Profile optimization tactic, we tested it on a real client first.

We document the failures alongside the wins.

Our editorial process is rigid. Jade reviews every technical claim. Priya verifies the algorithm data. Mateo checks the implementation steps. We push back on generic advice. We demand granularity from every contributor.

  • No guest posts from link builders. We only publish working practitioners.
  • No generic marketing fluff. We cover Google Maps growth exclusively.
  • No hidden agendas. If a popular local SEO tool is useless, we will say so.
