Sample: Build a Local SEO Content Engine in 30 Days
A practical 4-week content rhythm to grow local non-brand clicks without publishing daily.
Why most local sites stall
Most local businesses publish random posts with no clear path to service pages. That creates activity, not momentum.
Week 1: Build your page map
List your top 3 money services and assign each one supporting article themes.
Example map
- Bridal makeup service page -> timeline checklist, pricing expectations, trial prep
- Event makeup page -> skin prep guide, lookbook ideas, day-of checklist
Week 2: Publish two intent-matched articles
Each article should target one real question people ask before booking.
Week 3: Add internal links and CTAs
Every article must link to exactly one service page and one booking action.
Week 4: Tighten metadata
Improve titles and meta descriptions using actual query language from Search Console.
KPI targets
- +15% non-brand clicks
- +10% CTR on service-supporting articles
- 2+ assisted leads from organic sessions
