Business ranks #1 in different city/state - ranks low or not at all in actual location

I'm dying here with SEO and Google. I started a company in City #1 almost five years and moved out of City #1 almost three years ago. When I moved, I made sure to go through my web presence and change/update data immediately and I started ranking in my new city within a couple of weeks. Fast forward to now, I switched to Squarespace a couple of weeks ago and the majority of my web presence in my current location has disappeared. I now rank #1 in the original city I started the company in five years ago.

I've gone through my website, adjusted SEO, made sure that everything is accurate and up to date and nothing I do seems to do anything. My site has been indexed by Google multiple times within the last 4-6 weeks, make sure to update sitemap, etc. I don't get local service calls anymore, I only get calls from multiple states away because people can't read a listing beyond its phone number.

​

??? I don't know what to do and I don't have the 4 figures to hire a SEO company.

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

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

7 SEO Lessons I've Learned in 2025 (So Far) - From Building a Competitor Analysis Tool

Hey r/SEO , I've been spending a lot of time lately building a competitor keyword research tool (more on that below!), and it's really forced me to dig deep into how SEO works today . Here are some of the key lessons I've learned – hopefully, they're helpful to you too: Keyword Gaps Are Gold: It's not enough to just know what keywords your competitors rank for. You need to know what they rank for that you don't . This is where the real opportunities lie. Focusing on these "gap" keywords has been a game-changer for my own site. (This is actually why I built the tool – to make finding these gaps easier). Relevance > Volume (Sometimes): High search volume is great, but relevance is even more important. A keyword with 100 searches per month that's perfectly aligned with your niche and audience is often more valuable than a keyword with 10,000 searches that's only tangentially related. I've seen much better results targeting tho...
