Monthly local SEO: we look after your Google listing every month
Ongoing management of your Google Business Profile: a regular posting calendar, monthly checks on the listing, a watch on your map-pack position and a monthly report with real figures from Google. It is for businesses in Spain, with a physical location or on-site service that Google can verify, whose visitors (many of them British or Dutch) find them on Google Maps.
The price is by proposal, because it depends on your sector and the starting state of the listing. As a guide it starts at around €198 a month on an annual plan or €220 a month on a six-month plan, plus VAT where it applies. We send a proposal after a diagnosis. The minimum term is six months; after that you cancel with 15 days' notice.
Who it suits
- Your listing is already in decent shape and you want to defend your position every month.
- You know active listings do better but never find time to write posts at the pace your sector needs.
- You want a monthly report with real data, not a feeling that "it looks better".
- Your sector moves (holiday rentals, hospitality, health, services) and standing still means falling behind.
- You want someone to watch for changes when Google adjusts local ranking.
If the listing is in poor shape (suspended, restricted, broken name-address-phone data), start with the 30-day Action Plan. The Monthly service maintains and improves; it is not a repair job.
What a month looks like
Week 1: quick audit and a post
- A quick check of the listing: completeness, pending photos, unanswered reviews, old posts.
- One to three priority changes for the month.
- The first post of the month, written by us and approved by you before it is published.
- Draft replies to new reviews, which you publish.
Week 2: applying the changes
- The priority changes from week 1 (categories, attributes, description, photos).
- The next post, in step with the season and your sector.
- Any messages Google has left in the panel.
Week 3: monitoring
- A check of your position in the local pack for your key local searches.
- Another post on your listing.
- A look at your direct competitors: what changed and whether they enter or leave the pack.
- Suggestions for your website if we spot something worth changing. We suggest, we do not apply: the Monthly service does not touch your website.
Week 4: close of the month and report
- The month's posts closed against the agreed editorial calendar.
- A monthly report with real Google Business Profile figures: views, website clicks, calls, directions requests and position on key searches.
- A comparison with previous months and the trend.
- The plan for the next month.
The first month is heavier because of the full audit; the following ones settle into a steady rhythm. The checklist is reviewed partially every month, which covers what changes most, and in full every six months.
How we work
- The Head of SEO does the work. No junior accounts and no opaque back office: you talk to the person who applies the changes.
- An editorial calendar, not loose posts. Posts are organised by theme: offer, featured service, seasonal news, educational content. Frequency is set to your season and sector; more volume without value starts to look like spam.
- Real data. The report uses figures taken directly from Google Business Profile, compared month by month.
- Pack monitoring. If you drop, we work out why (an algorithm change, a new competitor, a problem with the listing) and respond.
- We do not touch your website. The Monthly service covers the listing and monitoring. Work on your site, such as schema, landing pages or redirects, is recommended and quoted separately.

When it is not for you
- You expect your general ranking to rise without touching your website. The Monthly service is about the listing; it is not full organic SEO.
- You want us to publish review replies in your name. We provide reply recommendations; you publish.
- You are looking for the cheapest price on the market.
- Your business has no physical location or on-site service that Google can verify.
Questions
Do I need to have done the DIY report or the Action Plan first?
Not mandatory, but it helps. If the listing is in decent shape we can start directly. If it is in poor shape we recommend the Action Plan first.
How often will you post?
The frequency is agreed in each month's editorial plan, by sector and season. If your sector needs intensive posting (weekly events, daily offers), we quote that separately.
When does the monthly report arrive?
At the start of the following month, once Google has consolidated the figures. It comes by email as a PDF. A short call to go through it is free if you want one.
Annual or six-month plan?
You can switch on the anniversary of the contract. The annual plan works out roughly 10% cheaper (about €198 against €220 a month).
Do you work with businesses outside Ibiza?
Yes, anywhere in Spain where the business has a verifiable physical location. The work is done remotely from Ibiza.
What if I lose positions during the Monthly service?
You will see it in the monthly report. If the drop is down to something of ours, such as a change that did not work, we revert and redo it at no extra cost. If the cause is external (a Google update, a strong new competitor), we explain it in the report and propose a response.
How do I cancel?
After the six-month minimum, email us with 15 days' notice before the end of the current month. We invoice what was worked that month and it closes. You do not need to justify anything.
Is there a discount for several listings?
Yes, from three listings under management for the same owner or group. We quote case by case.
Do you work on a pay-only-if-it-works basis?
No. Nobody honest does, because Google decides the result. That is why the DIY report and the Action Plan exist as low-risk ways to start.
