Ranking in the Google local pack and Maps — the results people see when they search for a business near them. Profile optimisation, reviews, local signals and citations.
Who can get my business ranking on Google Maps?
Tomek Sikora optimises Google Business Profile and Maps presence so a business appears in the local pack and on Maps when nearby customers search — profile optimisation, review strategy, local citations and the on-site signals that support it. 12+ years across 30+ markets, working directly with you, no lock-in.
When someone searches with local intent, Google often answers with a map and three business listings — the local pack — long before the classic blue links. Winning that space is a distinct discipline built on your Google Business Profile, proximity and relevance signals, reviews and consistent business information across the web.
The work: a fully optimised Business Profile (categories, services, attributes, posts, photos), a review strategy that builds volume and recency, consistent NAP citations across directories, and the on-page local signals — location pages, local schema — that reinforce it. I also cover how local recommendations increasingly surface inside AI answers, which draw on the same signals.
This is a focused, tactical engagement. For a broader programme it sits under Local SEO; here the emphasis is specifically the Business Profile and Maps.

Common questions
Questions about Google Business Profile & Maps SEO
-
It is a focused part of it. Local SEO is the whole local programme; this engagement concentrates specifically on the Google Business Profile and Maps / local pack — the highest-visibility local surface.
-
Relevance (profile and on-site signals), distance (proximity to the searcher) and prominence (reviews, citations, authority). You cannot change distance, but profile quality, reviews and consistency are all in scope.
-
Yes. Review volume, rating and recency are among the strongest local ranking and conversion factors, and AI local recommendations lean on them too. A review strategy is part of the work.
-
Yes. Inconsistent name, address and phone (NAP) across directories confuses Google and hurts trust. Cleaning up citations is a standard part of the engagement.
-
Yes. AI assistants and voice search draw local recommendations from the same Business Profile, reviews and consistency signals, so the work supports both.
