How do I see where I rank across the metro?

A grid scan shows rankings from dozens of points around Birmingham. It's far more useful than searching from your own desk.

Do service area businesses rank differently?

Yes — hiding your address is required if you don't serve customers there, and it changes how proximity is applied.

That's normal. Here's what expands the radius.

Proximity is the strongest factor in local pack rankings, which is why your visibility falls off a cliff a few miles from your pin.

Primary category precision
One category change can reshape your entire visibility grid. It's the highest-leverage field on the profile.
Service and city pages
Genuine pages for the places you serve, with real detail — not 40 templated pages with the city swapped.
Review velocity and content
Recent reviews that mention the service and the area, arriving steadily rather than in bursts.
Local links and mentions
Chambers, associations, sponsorships, and local press — the corroboration that separates near-identical listings.
