How We Ranked a New Office on Google in 7 Days | Friday SEO Tip

Local SEO That Delivers Fast

We recently expanded into Longmont, Colorado. Within seven days, we appeared in the Local Map Pack, earned two organic page-one results, and began attracting real traffic. Here’s precisely how we did it—and how you can apply the same approach to your locations.

Start with Your GBP

Before we even moved in, we published our Longmont Google Business Profile. It was complete, verified, and included core business info, categories, and photos. Even with just one review, it ranked in the top 3 local results because of everything we built around it.

Publish a Location Page

We created a standalone Longmont SEO page right off our root domain. It’s optimized for terms like “Longmont SEO company” and “Longmont SEO agency” and structured to rank well in local and organic searches.

Announce with a Press Release

Next, we announced our Longmont office with a keyword-rich press release. We used PRLog’s press distribution network to share it widely. As a result, our release was syndicated by Digital Journal, helping us earn high-authority backlinks.

Each release included two strategic links—one to the GBP and one to the Longmont page—reinforcing our local signals.

Validate with Keyword Research

To find the correct phrases and validate search demand in Longmont, we used SE Ranking’s keyword research tool. This helped us choose intent-driven terms, shape our metadata, and avoid wasted effort.
