Auto repair is one of the most local and most urgent service categories in search. When a driver hears a strange noise, sees a warning light, or gets into a collision, the first thing they do is search. The search is local, the intent is immediate, and the decision about which shop to call happens…

Car dealerships operate in one of the most competitive local search environments in the world. Every major brand has a national advertising presence, aggregator platforms like Cars.com, AutoTrader, and CarGurus dominate broad inventory searches, and local dealerships are fighting for visibility in a market where the buyer journey starts overwhelmingly on Google. A buyer searching…

Healthcare is one of the most searched categories on the internet and one of the most difficult to rank in.
