Frequently Asked Questions For Local Business Owners.
1) I don’t have any digital assets for my local business. Where should I start?
The first step is to create a website. A website not only showcases your business but also simplifies the approval process for your Google Business Profile (GBP). Without a website, there’s a high chance your GBP won’t be approved.
2) I want to create my Google Business Profile. What do I need?
You’ll need your business information and a fully functioning website. You don't have one? We can create one for you.
​3) Can you do SEO work for my business?
Absolutely! However, we need a website to get started.
4) I already have a website. Can you do SEO work on it?
Yes, but first, we need to assess your website. We’ll check the platform it’s built on (e.g., WordPress, Wix) and verify whether we can work with it. We will check its technical work and confirm you if we continue with it or is better to create a new one.
5) Do you deliver websites without SEO work?
Yes, we do. Feel free to consult with a team member to discuss your needs. We will give you a tailored option according to your goals.
6) If I create a website with C2Thrive, can I get SEO work included?
Absolutely! SEO is one of our core strengths. Reach out to a team member to explore the available options. We will create a tailored plan in order to get your site ranked on Google and start attracting Leads.
7) What are the cons of not hiring a professional to help me create the Google Business Profile for my business?
Creating a Google Business Profile requires strategy, including competitive analysis and technical expertise beyond the profile itself (e.g., integrating your website). Without professional assistance, your profile may lack the optimization needed to achieve strong local visibility, potentially limiting its effectiveness. Contact us to learn more about how we can help.
8) Other marketing companies/freelancers have contacted me and claim they can put me in 1st place on Google searches. Is that possible?
No, it is not possible. Only Google Ads can place you at the top temporarily, but even then, competition, keyword strategy, and ad quality will affect your rank. With SEO work, you can aim for high-ranking organic positions (e.g., 8th or above), but maintaining those rankings requires consistent effort.
9) Why is SEO work important for my business?
If you’re serious about growing your business and serving multiple areas, SEO is essential. SEO helps you build permanent, high-quality online resources that attract prospects and customers. Search engines reward valuable, consistent content with better visibility and rankings. The earlier you start, the better, as established competitors continually invest in SEO, potentially leaving you behind.
10) Can you help me create a video commercial for my business?
Absolutely! We can plan and produce a professional video commercial. If we’re in the same area, we can visit your location to film. We handle all the editing and will recommend strategies to maximize its visibility among your target audience.
11) Do you offer offline resources to support my business in addition to digital strategies?
Yes, we do! We can assist with local advertising campaigns, such as postcards and other print materials. Reach out to learn about the range of offline marketing options we offer.

23) When Should Your Business Use Google Ads?
Google Ads is ideal in situations where people already have a problem or need, and are actively seeking solutions. Because it is an intent-based advertising platform, it lets you show up exactly when prospects type in specific queries related to whaty you offer. You should particularly consider using Google Ads if:
​
-
Your customers are searching online with clear keywords related to your service or product ("emergency plumber near me", "how to stop a roof leak", etc).​
​
-
Your business provides urgent o emergency services - when someone needs a fix right now, They'll search, and you want to capture that demand immediately.​
​
-
You run a home-based business or small/local service business - Google Ads lets you target by geography and show up for nearby searches.​
​
-
You know what terms people use when they look for your solution, or you're able to research these keywords.
​
23) When Should Your Business Use Facebook Ads?
Facebook Ads are best when you want to create awareness, generate interest, and reach new audiences who may not be searching for your product or service. Unlike Google Ads (which are intent-based), Facebook Ads are interest-based and behavior based. This means you can put your brand in front of people based on who they are, what they like, and how they behave online - even before they realize they need you.
​
You should particularly consider Facebook Ads if:
​
-
Your business needs to build brand awareness or stay top of mind in your local community.​
​
-
You want to target by demographics, interest, and behaviors - such as homeowners, parents, fitness enthusiasts, or people interested in local events.​
​
-
You are selling product or services that people may not actively search for but will respond to when they see them (Example: Cleaning services, Spas, Restaurants, Fitness classes, beauty treatments)​
​
-
You are looking to nurture long-term relationships- Facebook Ads allow retargeting campaigns to stay in front of people who have visited your website, engaged with your post or interacted with your page.​
​
-
You want to use visual storytelling - with videos, carousels or images- to build trust and emotional connection with your audience.​​
