Q. What makes Droved different from other SEO agencies?
Most agencies stop at rankings. We go further making sure you’re not just visible on Google Maps but also recommended by AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. That means more trust, more leads, and more long-term growth.
Q. Do you specialize only in Local SEO and AI search, or do you offer other services?
Our core focus is Local SEO and AI visibility. But to make that work, we also handle reviews, content, structured data, and citation management, everything tied directly to getting you found and chosen.
Q. Who do you typically work with?
We partner with service-based businesses that depend on local visibility to grow. That includes law firms, medical clinics, dentists, chiropractors, roofers, plumbers, electricians, real estate agents, and pest control companies. These are industries where being discovered in Google Maps or AI search isn’t optional, it directly drives steady leads, calls, and new customers.
Q. Do you work with businesses outside the U.S.?
Yes. While most of our clients are in the U.S., our strategies work anywhere. We adjust to local directories, markets, and search habits.
Q. What industries do you focus on?
We work with service industries where local visibility drives growth such as healthcare, legal, home services, real estate, and more.
Q. What services are included?
We cover every step needed to get your business found and chosen online. That includes optimizing your Google Business Profile so it shows up in the Maps 3-Pack, fixing and managing citations so your business data is consistent everywhere, improving and monitoring reviews, creating content that speaks to your customers, adding structured data to help search engines understand your business, and tracking where you appear in AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. It’s a complete system designed to boost both visibility and trust.
Q. How does the onboarding process work?
We begin with a deep audit of your online presence. That means reviewing your Google Business Profile, checking for citation errors, analyzing your reviews, and studying how you compare to competitors. From there, we create a tailored strategy that lays out exactly what needs to be fixed, what opportunities we’ll target, and how we’ll measure success. You’ll know what’s happening from day one.
Q. Do you create content or do I provide it?
We take care of content creation for you. That includes service pages that match what customers are searching for, blog posts that build authority, Google updates that keep your profile active, and FAQs that answer common customer questions. We write everything in a way that’s optimized for both Google and AI search, so your business gets surfaced when people ask.
Q. Will you manage my Google Business Profile and listings?
Yes. We’ll handle all updates to your profile: from services and descriptions to photos, posts, and regular activity. At the same time, we’ll make sure all of your listings across directories and industry sites stay consistent. That consistency is one of the strongest signals Google and AI tools use to decide who to recommend.
Q. How do you track results?
Every month, you’ll get a clear report showing exactly how your visibility is improving. That includes rankings in Google Maps, call and lead volume, review growth, citation improvements, and mentions in AI search tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity. You’ll see not just the activity we’re doing but the results it’s delivering.
Q. How long before I see results?
Most clients start seeing improvements in visibility, calls, and reviews within 3–6 months. The biggest jumps like consistently ranking in the 3-Pack and appearing in AI-generated answers usually come within 6–12 months as trust signals build up. SEO and AI optimization are compounding efforts, so the longer we work, the stronger and more consistent the results become.
Q. Can you guarantee top rankings or AI mentions?
No legitimate agency can guarantee rankings or AI recommendations, because those results depend on algorithms outside our control. What we can guarantee is the process: building the right foundation of reviews, accurate data, authority content, and structured signals that make your business the clear choice for Google and AI platforms to recommend. Our track record shows this approach works.
Q. How do I know if AI tools are recommending my business?
We monitor AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and others for mentions of your business. When you start appearing in those answers, we’ll show it to you in your reports. You’ll see not just rankings in Google, but how you’re gaining visibility in the AI-driven platforms that customers are using more every day.
Q. Do you measure more than traffic?
Absolutely. Traffic alone doesn’t pay the bills. We measure calls, leads, bookings, and form submissions, the actions that turn into revenue. You’ll always know how many real opportunities are coming in as a result of the work.
Q. What if my competitors are already ahead?
That’s common, and it’s why our process starts with competitor analysis. We look at what’s giving them an edge: whether it’s reviews, content, backlinks, or stronger profiles and then we build a plan to not only match them but surpass them. Over time, that’s how you reclaim market share.
Q. Can you help if my Google Business Profile is suspended?
Yes. Profile suspensions happen more often than business owners realize. We can step in to correct issues, prepare the reinstatement request, and guide you through the process until your listing is back online and trusted again.
Q. How much does it cost?
Every business is different, which is why we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all pricing. The best way to know what your investment will look like is to start with our free Local SEO audit. This shows us exactly how much work is needed to get your business ranking higher in Google Maps, local search, and even AI platforms like ChatGPT.
Our services start at $899 per month and scale depending on the size of your business, the competitiveness of your market, and the goals you want to achieve. After the audit, we’ll give you a clear, tailored plan with pricing that matches the level of work required.
Q. Do I need a long-term contract?
We ask for a 6-month minimum commitment because Local SEO and AI search optimization require time to build lasting visibility and trust signals. Quick fixes don’t create sustainable results, and we’re focused on strategies that actually move the needle. We also want to work with businesses that are committed to growth and value long-term partnerships. After the initial 6 months, plans continue month-to-month, and many clients stay with us for years because of the consistent results we deliver.
Q. Do you offer a free audit?
Yes. Before we start, we provide a full audit that shows exactly where your visibility stands today from Google Maps rankings to citation accuracy and AI search presence. We’ll also highlight the biggest opportunities for improvement so you know what to expect.
Q. Will I get dedicated support?
Yes. You’ll have a dedicated point of contact who understands your business and keeps you updated. We also provide monthly reports and check-ins so you always know what’s being worked on and how results are tracking.
Q. How do I reach your team if I have questions?
We’re available through email and scheduled calls whenever you need us. And we keep communication simple: no jargon, no technical confusion, just clear updates on what matters most to your business growth.
