San Jose punishes the obvious strategy
Generic citywide terms are contested by businesses with real marketing budgets. We run a green-light test before committing: read the live results, decide whether there is a position worth reaching, and choose a more specific target when there is not.
What the first six months buy
The initial $299/mo phase is intentionally front-loaded: existing near-miss pages first, then service pages and genuinely useful local coverage, with technical and internal-link work alongside it. Once the foundation is established, the ongoing rate is $149/mo.
The map pack is not one target
San Jose is geographically large. We track local visibility where the business actually serves customers rather than inventing one citywide number.
What lands on the 1st
Calls and direction requests, keywords crossing ranking bands, pages published and confirmed indexed. No sessions-for-the-sake-of-sessions, no promised positions.
San Jose · straight answers
What San Jose owners ask about SEO.
Can you get me to number one for "San Jose SEO"?
No. That is the wrong target for most local businesses anyway. We test the terms your customers actually search and build for the ones a business your size can realistically reach.
What does the first six months cost?
$299/mo for the first 6 months, then $149/mo ongoing. The higher first-phase rate funds the front-loaded technical, page and Search Console work.
Does the map pack differ across San Jose?
Yes. Proximity is a major local factor and San Jose is large enough that the same search can return different businesses in different neighborhoods. We do not promise one citywide map-pack position.
You are in Milpitas. Does that hurt me?
Not for organic work. It matters only for map-pack proximity, where your own profile address—not ours—determines your local position.
