The digital agency putting local businesses on the map

Plumbers, clinics, gyms, salons, builders. Websites, local SEO, AI search and paid ads, built and run by one team, so you are not juggling five different suppliers to be found online.

S.01 · The state of play

One team, every channel that matters.

Being found online is not one job any more, it is several. A website that converts, local search that gets you into the map pack, and now AI answers that recommend businesses by name.

Your customers search on Google, they ask ChatGPT for “a good dentist near Shoreditch”, they read AI Overviews at the top of the results page. Miss any one of those and that customer never knew you existed.

Most agencies specialise in one of these and leave you to manage the rest yourself, a different supplier for the site, the SEO and the ads, none of them talking to each other. We do not. Whether you need a new website, better local rankings, AI visibility or ads that convert, it comes from one team who already knows your business.

So why choose Local Territory?

There’s no better way to judge an agency than its track record, but here are a few key reasons, straight from the horse’s mouth, why we’d say we’re a solid agency to work with.

R.01 We’re results driven +

The numbers don’t lie. We have no desire to sugarcoat the facts or show you metrics that make no difference to the bottom line. The goal is simply to help your business be seen for industry-relevant, intent-driven keywords with buying intent, increasing the number of targeted visitors ready to do business.

We report monthly with a link to all of the facts on a customised dashboard built around your KPIs, and review milestones with you quarterly.

R.02 We won’t bullshit you +

Pardon our French, but the SEO industry is full of snake oil merchants claiming business-changing results within days. Those who really know this industry will tell you SEO is not an overnight fix. Positive results are obtainable within a few weeks of a quality campaign, but it can be a long road of optimising, adding content and link building, and the road gets longer when your competitors are fighting for the same positions.

What we promise is the full picture: what your competitors are up to and what it will take to outrank them. That puts you in the driving seat, with a real understanding of the effort needed to hit the results you want, in the timeframes you want.

R.03 We cut out the jargon +

SEO doesn’t have to be complicated. If anything, it’s complicated mainly by people in the industry. Every metric we use can and should be explained in a way that’s digestible to any business owner, regardless of marketing or technical experience.

We take a technical process full of terminology and break it down to the bare fundamentals, so you always understand exactly what you’re paying for and why it’s working.

R.04 We care as much as you +

Your business is second to none when it comes to understanding your customers. With your help we take that understanding further, using keyword research and competitor analysis to find the search queries and gaps in your niche that break down trust barriers and bring customers to you.

R.05 We’re personable +

We are not a faceless machine and we never want you to feel like you’re dealing with one. Getting to know our customers, their morals, their ethics and the way they naturally do business feeds directly into the strategy we build for them.

Seeing owners and managers happy about true, organic growth is why we do this, and it’s why so much of our work comes from referrals.

R.06 We invest in our business, just like you +

We constantly expand our knowledge base, staying up to date with every Google update and investing in the most powerful software and tools in the industry.

Our in-house team includes specialists in cold sales, email marketing, video and photography, UX and UI design, so we can adapt to each client’s specific needs and build 360 strategies sculpted to their business.

The questions we get asked

Q.01 What does Local Territory do? +

We get service businesses and businesses with premises found in the searches their customers actually use: the Google map pack, local organic results, and increasingly the answers AI assistants give. That runs across local SEO, AI SEO and answer engine optimisation, Google Ads, paid social, and websites built for local search. One team and one plan rather than four suppliers who never speak to each other.

Q.02 What kind of businesses do you work with? +

Businesses where the customer is nearby: trades and home services, construction, professional services, aesthetics clinics, healthcare practices, wellness businesses and gyms. A single location, a service area business with no shopfront, or a small multi-site group all work. What does not fit is a national ecommerce brand with no local footprint.

Q.03 How much do your services cost? +

Local SEO starts at £350 per month. Google Ads and paid social management starts at £500 per month. A pay-monthly website starts at £69 per month with nothing up front. Bespoke web design is quoted per project. There are no setup fees and no minimum terms, and you get a straight answer for your own situation on the discovery call.

Q.04 Where are you based and who do you cover? +

We are at 86-90 Paul Street, London EC2A 4NE, and we work with businesses across the United Kingdom. Local SEO is not run from a doorstep, so campaigns target whichever towns, cities or service areas a client actually covers, not the ones near our office.

Q.05 How long does this take to work? +

Listing and technical fixes can move things within weeks because you are removing a problem rather than building an asset. Holding a map pack position in a competitive area takes months, because prominence is earned through reviews, mentions and links that accumulate. Anyone promising page one in a fortnight is describing an advert.

Q.06 Do I have to sign a long contract? +

No. There are no minimum terms on our monthly services. The work compounds, so the businesses that do best are the ones that stay, but that should be because it is working, not because they are locked in.

Q.07 What makes you different from other local SEO agencies? +

Two things, mainly. The paid, organic and web teams are the same people, so your ads, your rankings and your website are built as one strategy rather than three that undercut each other. And the reporting comes straight out of Google Analytics and Search Console, including the numbers that did not move. If something is not working we would rather tell you than dress up a screenshot.

Q.08 Who is Local Territory? +

Local Territory is a trading name of Cornerstone Marketing Group Ltd, founded in 2018 and based in London. Its sister companies are Biztour, which produces virtual tours, photography and video, and Tap To Review, which supplies Google review collection tools.
