Looking for advice on Google ranking

Trigger warning: I am new to website building and SEO. I have done what I believe is my due diligence, have watched videos and read through guides etc to properly set up my site keywords in order to rank properly in Google search. Alas, it is not working so I must be doing something wrong. If you can help, please keep reading….

Site builder: Squarespace Site age: ~30 days Site content: Painting Contractor GBP is configured, contains useful information and pictures, and is live. GSC: all pages of site are indexed and crawled.

Problem: If I search “[my city name] painting contractor”, my site doesn’t show up in the results. By the time I click through to page 10 of the results, it still doesn’t show up. I’m getting results for painters in other cities, but not my own. I’m getting results for things unrelated even.

I have gone through the suggested SEO checklist on Squarespace and set my site title to “[my city name] painting contractor” and have included some keywords on other pages like “[my city name] painting services” to no avail.

What am I doing wrong?

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

GMB territory inching with service company

The boss wants us to get addresses in these hot territories within the county and use call rail numbers to validate the GMB profile. Question: Does this still work? Will it catch up with us? OR is there a better way to rank in a territory for a service.
