WHAT IS SEO?
WHY SHOULD YOU CARE ABOUT SEO?
Local SEO is all about helping your business appear in Google’s local search results, the map listings and the top spots people see when they search “near me”.
So when someone types:
-
“SEO agency Bristol”
-
“plumber near Bath”
-
“best café in Keynsham”
your business pops up first, not buried beneath a digital graveyard of competitors. That’s what we do best. We optimise your Google Business Profile, fine-tune your website, and build trustworthy local signals that tell Google: “Hey, this business is real, relevant, and ready for customers in Bristol and Bath!”

CLIENT CASE STUDY
FROM INVISIBLE
TO UNSTOPPABLE
We were approached by Bristol Based company Premier Workshops to launch a website hosting Sip & Paint parties hosted in venues around Bristol and Bath. Within 12 months their website went from nowhere to page 1 on searches in Bristol and Bath making the company £94,000 in their first year with a 3170% increase in site traffic.
Now that's a monstrous improvement.
SEO FACT: FROM THE MONSTER LAB

If you’re stuck on page 2, you’re only getting 5% — that’s a monster waste of potential.
Let’s fix that.
SEO FAQ'S
Real questions from real local businesses — answered by our friendly SEO beasts.
1. What exactly is Local SEO?
Local SEO is how we help your business show up in local Google searches — like when someone types “coffee shop Bath” or “electrician Bristol.”
We make sure your website, Google Business Profile, and local citations all tell Google,
“We’re here, we’re real, and we’re ready for customers nearby!”
Think of it as feeding Google’s algorithm the right snacks so it can’t resist ranking you higher.
2. How long does it take for Local SEO to work?
Even monsters need time to wake up. You’ll usually start seeing movement in 4–8 weeks — faster if your competitors are snoozing.
Full domination (top 3 in Maps + organic) can take 3–6 months, depending on how fierce your local rivals are.
But unlike ads, once you’re up there, your rankings keep working 24/7 without extra spend.
3. Why isn’t my business showing up on Google Maps?
Ooh — the classic invisible monster problem.
Common culprits include:
-
Your Google Business Profile isn’t verified or complete.
-
Your address, phone, or name isn’t consistent across listings.
-
You’ve got few or no reviews.
-
Or… your competitors are simply doing Local SEO better.
We fix all of that. We’ll even tame your profile photos, categories, and keywords until Google can’t ignore you.
4. What’s the difference between Local SEO and regular SEO?
Regular SEO is about ranking anywhere on Google. Local SEO is about ranking here — in Bristol, Bath, or wherever your customers actually are.
It’s more about maps, reviews, and local intent than national blog posts or big backlinks. In short: Local SEO gets feet through your door, not just hits on your site.
5. How much does Local SEO cost in Bristol or Bath?
Our monster plans start from £495/month, designed for small and growing businesses. That includes on-page optimisation, GBP management, local citations, and monthly tracking. If you’re competing in a tough area (like “Bristol SEO agency” or “dentist Bath”), we’ll scale the campaign to fit your goals and budget — no horror stories or hidden costs.
6. Can you guarantee I’ll get to number one?
If anyone guarantees that — run faster than a monster in daylight. SEO is about improving your visibility and traffic consistently, not quick-fix magic.
What we can guarantee is transparent reporting, smart strategy, and steady growth that makes you more visible to real customers.
8. Do I need different SEO pages for Bristol and Bath?
If you serve both cities — absolutely! Google loves clear, location-focused content. That means:
-
One page for Local SEO Bristol
-
One page for Local SEO Bath
Each packed with area-specific examples, case studies, and keywords.
It’s like giving Google a map to your monster lair in both cities.
9. Can Local SEO help trades and service businesses?
Yes! Local SEO is the life force for trades. Whether you’re a plumber, electrician, roofer, cleaner, or landscaper, customers find you via local search.
We help your business appear where they’re looking — on their phones, nearby, ready to book.
10. What makes Monster Sites different from other SEO agencies?
We don’t do boring. We’re small, local, and fiercely dedicated to results — not vanity metrics.
Our reports are written in English, not gobbledygook, and our strategies are monster-tested, Google-approved.
Plus, we genuinely care about local businesses — because we’re one too.
No corporate fluff, no haunted contracts. Just friendly monsters helping you rank higher and earn more.
