Franchise SEO

Local rankings at scale across every location.

Multi-location SEO for franchise brands. Each location gets its own Google Business Profile, citations, schema, location page and review program — coordinated centrally, optimised locally, tracked in one dashboard.

What's Included

Multi-location SEO, end to end.

Franchise SEO is not single-location SEO multiplied by N. It is a fundamentally different discipline — central control, local nuance, bulk operations.

  • GBP per location — full Google Business Profile optimisation, posts cadence, Q&A management.
  • NAP citation cleanup — name/address/phone consistency across 50+ directories per location.
  • Location pages with hyperlocal content — unique landing pages, local schema, neighbourhood relevance.
  • Review velocity programs — automated request flows that grow ratings without violating policy.
  • LocalBusiness + FranchiseOrSubsidiary schema — proper structured data per location.
  • Multi-location dashboard — performance per location, central rollup, drill-down per market.

FAQ

Franchise SEO, demystified.

Do you work with franchisees directly or only HQ?
Both. Most engagements are HQ-led with bulk operations, but we also support individual franchisees who want supplementary local optimisation.
How do you handle franchisee pushback?
We design playbooks that empower franchisees rather than override them. Brand consistency on schema and NAP, local creative freedom on content and reviews.
Minimum location count to engage?
10 locations. Below that, single-location SEO is more cost-effective. We can work with 5-10 locations under a custom scope.
How quickly do new locations rank?
For locations following our playbook (GBP, NAP, location page, schema), top-10 within 60 days, top-3 by 90 days on most queries.
