The business down the road is not better than you. It is just easier to find.

When someone in Takapuna or Albany searches for what you do, Google shows three businesses on a map. If you are not one of them, that job goes to someone else. Every day.

SEO Monkey mascot dizzy and seeing stars

Invisible on the map

You are on page two for your own suburb, so the phone rings for the place around the corner instead.

Burned by an agency

A big pitch, a 12-month contract, an account manager you never met and a report full of green arrows.

A website that does nothing

It looks fine and it has never once made the phone ring. Nobody has told you why.

Proof from ten minutes down the road.

One of my current clients is a sign company on Wairau Road. They came to me for Google Ads. I built five landing pages from photos of their own work, one for each service, and counted every enquiry. Client names stay off this site. Yours would too.

I’m Jakob. My desk is in Campbells Bay.

I run SEO Monkey from Beach Road, between Castor Bay and Mairangi Bay, and I do every account myself. There is no account manager and nobody offshore. When you call, you get the person doing the work.

Being local matters for a boring reason. Local marketing runs on local detail: which suburbs people will cross the motorway for, why someone in Devonport treats Albany as a day trip, what Lake Road does to a five o’clock booking. I do not have to look any of that up.

Questions Shore owners ask first.

Are you actually based on the North Shore?

Yes. 278 Beach Road, Campbells Bay, 0630. It is on my Google Business Profile, in the footer of this site and on the map below. I work from here, not from a shared office in town with a North Shore number forwarded to it.

Can we meet in person?

Yes, if you are on the Shore. The first chat is an 18 minute call because that is quicker for both of us. After that I am happy to come to your shop, clinic or workshop. I would rather see the place than guess at it.

How long until I show up in Google for my suburb?

It depends who is already there. A quiet trade in Torbay moves faster than a dentist in Takapuna. I will tell you what I think is realistic on the call, after I have looked at who you are up against. I would rather under-promise than give you a date I made up.

Is there a lock-in contract?

Three months to start, because that is the shortest honest runway for this kind of work. After that it is month to month, and the first 30 days are covered by the deliverables guarantee.

Do you only work with North Shore businesses?

No. I have clients across Auckland and around New Zealand, and the work is the same. Being local just means I already know your patch.

Where I work.

My desk is in Campbells Bay. Phone or email first, please. It is a working desk, not a shopfront.
