NEW Local SEO, recompiled · v3.0

Half the price.
Double the deliverables.

A new generation of Local SEO. Every engagement starts with a custom dashboard built on deep analysis of your site and the competitor you want to beat — then a focused 2 or 3-month sprint, GBP or SEO, to close the gap.

① The Custom Dashboard

Your own dashboard. Built around the rival you want to beat.

Every engagement starts here. I run a deep analysis of your site and one specific competitor, then build a bespoke dashboard with the gap, the plan, and the exact tasks to close it. Yours to keep — execute it yourself, hand it to your team, or hire me to run it.

  • Custom competitor benchmark, not a template.

    Hand-built side-by-side analysis: GBP, citations, reviews, content depth, backlinks, schema, page speed, AI-search visibility — scored against the rival you name.

  • A live dashboard with the gap, plan, and tasks.

    Not a 24-page PDF. A real interactive interface — current scores, target scores, weekly tasks, owners, due dates. Updated in real-time.

  • Hybrid human + AI intelligence.

    The analysis uses AI for breadth and a human expert for judgment. The result is sharper than any agency template and faster than any pure-human audit.

  • Yours to keep. Execute it however you want.

    Run it in-house. Give it to your existing agency. Or hire me to ship it as a sprint. Same dashboard either way — no lock-in.

  • Built in 5 business days.

    Pay, share access, name your rival. Five business days later your dashboard is live and walkthrough-ready.

② GBP Sprint · Dashboard + execution

Win the map pack. In 2 or 3 months.

Your dashboard becomes a weekly delivery schedule. I run every GBP task on it — categories, posts, photos, Q&A, reviews, citations — until your geo-grid passes the rival you named.

  • Full GBP profile build & optimization.

    Categories, attributes, services, products, description rewrite — everything tuned against the competitor benchmark in your dashboard.

  • Posts, photos, Q&A — weekly cadence.

    12–16 posts/mo across all four types. 8–12 geotagged photos. 4–6 Q&A pairs. Real content, not templated noise.

  • NAP consistency & citation cleanup.

    30–50 source audit. Duplicate, fake, and inconsistent listings cleaned. Top citations claimed and standardized.

  • Local Falcon geo-grid tracking.

    Weekly geo-grid scans for you and your rival, charted in your dashboard. You see the map share move, block by block.

  • Review responses, generation & spam monitoring.

    Every review answered. QR + email review-generation system installed. Fake-listing & spam monitoring on the rivals around you.

  • Weekly check-in. Dashboard updated daily.

    15-minute check-in every week. Dashboard reflects what was shipped, what moved, and what's queued next.

③ SEO Sprint · Dashboard + execution

Win the organic page. And the AI Overview.

Onsite, content, links and technical work — everything that moves blue-link rankings and earns AI citations. Same custom dashboard, scoped for SEO instead of GBP.

  • Onsite — titles, H1s, meta, internal links.

    Every priority page rewritten against the competitor benchmark. Internal-link graph mapped and corrected.

  • Local landing pages & long-tail content.

    2–4 locally-targeted content pieces / month. Real human writing, AI-assisted research — never copy-paste output.

  • Quality backlink placements.

    2–5 real placements / month from sites with traffic and topical relevance. No PBNs, no auto-submit.

  • Schema · Core Web Vitals · technical fixes.

    LocalBusiness + product schema validated. CWV issues flagged with concrete fixes for your dev — or shipped if you give me access.

  • AI-search readiness: GEO & AI Overviews.

    Content tuned for RAG frameworks, information gain, and semantic density. Engineered to be cited inside AI Overviews and chat answers.

  • Weekly check-in. Dashboard updated daily.

    Same live dashboard, weekly cadence. Wrap-up at end of sprint: what moved, ranked wins, recommended next quarter.

Sample dashboard · live preview

See a real dashboard, end to end.

A live preview of an 8-week SEO sprint dashboard built for a sample client. Not a screenshot — the actual interface. Click through, poke at it, see what you'd be getting.

  • Gap scoreboard. You vs. rival, side by side.

    Every signal that moves rankings — scored, color-coded, with the gap calculated for you. One number per Monday.

  • Weekly task board. What's shipping this week.

    Concrete, named tasks with owners, due dates, and links to deliverables. No vague "content optimization."

  • Geo-grid heatmap. Where you rank, block by block.

    Local Falcon geo-grid embedded directly in the dashboard. Weekly comparison against your rival.

  • Content & backlink log. Every deliverable, in one place.

    Articles, page rewrites, link placements, schema fixes — with before/after screenshots and live URLs.

  • AI-search visibility. Are you cited?

    Tracked appearances in AI Overviews, ChatGPT answers, Perplexity, Gemini — with the prompts that surface you.

  • Plain-English notes. What changed and why.

    Every week, a short written brief from me. What I shipped, what I saw, what's next, where I'd push harder.

Why agencies fail

Yesteryear's SEO retainer is broken.

Cookie-cutter packages, AI auto-posters, and 24-page PDFs nobody reads — sold at 80–95% margins. Four patterns I see on almost every audit:

→ Pattern 01

Templated retainers, identical for every client.

Same 12 deliverables, same checklist, same posts. Whether you sell HVAC or law — your rival gets the exact same package.

→ Pattern 02

$1,500/mo for an AI post scheduler.

The "service" is software with a dashboard. A junior runs it on autopilot. The margin is the business model — not your results.

→ Pattern 03

Copy-paste AI articles.

$10k for "five optimized pieces" of unhumanized AI output. Embarrassingly obvious to any reader. Rarely on schedule.

→ Pattern 04

No competitor benchmark. Ever.

No vision, no plan, no rival named. Just a template, a scheduler, and a 24-page PDF nobody opens.

Why Gumsek

A new generation of SEO. Built around you, not a template.

Half the price of a typical agency. Double the deliverables. And it's actually yours.

Custom · not template

One dashboard per client, built around one rival.

Not a package. Not a tier. The plan, tasks, and weekly cadence are derived from your gap to your chosen competitor.

Human + AI

Hybrid human + AI intelligence.

AI handles breadth. A human expert handles judgment. Faster than pure-human, sharper than any agency template.

Federal expert · Top 1%

No lock-in

Fixed scope. No retainers. No lock-in.

2 or 3-month sprints with a fixed price. Or just buy the dashboard and run it yourself for $150. Walk away whenever — keep everything.

Half the price
