Local SEO audit: find out exactly why you're not getting the calls.
A local SEO audit shows where you rank on Google Maps across your area, what's wrong with your Google profile and website, and what to fix first. Run it free in the SOSSRANK app after signup, no card, or book a call and we'll walk you through it.
See your rank from every block, not just your desk.
The audit checks your Google Maps rank from points across your area, so you see where customers find you and where they find a competitor instead.

Map rank from every part of your area
We check where you rank on Google Maps from a grid of points across your service area, for the searches that matter to you, using live Google results. You see where you're in the top three and where competitors take the call.
Your Google Business Profile, field by field
Categories, services, hours, photos, posts, reviews and replies, compared with what customers search and with the businesses ranking above you.
Your website and listings
Titles, headings, service and town pages, speed basics and the structured data that helps Google read your business details. Then your name, address and phone across the listings that matter, including Bing Places and Apple Business Connect.
AI answers
We ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI the questions your customers ask, and record whether you're named, who is, and which sources they used.
One list of fixes, in order
Everything ends in one ranked list, in plain English, so you know what to do first. Work through it yourself in the app, or we do it for you.

Questions we hear
Is the audit really free?
Yes. Sign up, verify your email and run the full audit with no card. Ongoing tracking starts with a 7-day free trial.
What's the difference between this and a regular SEO audit?
A regular SEO audit looks at your website. A local SEO audit also checks your Google Business Profile, your map rank across your area, your listings, your reviews and AI answers, because those decide who gets local calls.
Do you work with businesses outside Maryland?
Yes. The app works for businesses anywhere in the US, and done-for-you work is done remotely, with everything visible in your dashboard. We're based in Germantown, Maryland.
How fast will I see more calls?
It depends on your market and your competitors, and Google says no one can pay for a better ranking. What you get is proof: you see the change on your map, measured from the same points every time.
