Local SEO and AI search for Seacoast small businesses
Show up on Google, in the map, and in AI answers.
LEAP WORKS helps small businesses get found by the people searching for what they do: on Google, in Google Maps, and in AI assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity.
Your customers are asking Google and ChatGPT who to hire. Your business should be part of the answer.
Found where your customers look.
The same groundwork helps with search and AI answers. We do it every month and show you what changed.
Get found on Google and in the map
A complete, active Google Business Profile, accurate listings across the directories that matter, a simple routine for asking customers for reviews, and fixes to your website's pages, speed, and structure.

Mapped, measured, and found.
We treat your corner of the Seacoast like a map: where customers search, where you appear today, and the path to the places you should be.
The questions we track for you.
Each month we ask AI assistants the questions your customers ask, and record whether your business comes up. Here's what that looks like for a made-up heating company in Dover.

What is GEO?
Generative engine optimization: making your business easy for AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI to find, understand, and recommend. It builds on good local SEO, plus clear answers and mentions on trusted sites.
Can you guarantee a #1 ranking or a ChatGPT recommendation?
No, and nobody honestly can. Google says so itself, and AI answers vary from person to person. We promise the work, done every month, and clear measurement.
How long until I see results?
Fixes to your Google Business Profile and listings often show up first. Content and mentions build over months. We report every month so you can judge for yourself.
How do you handle reviews?
We set up a routine to ask every customer for a review, not just the happy ones. That follows Google's review policies and the FTC's guidance, and honest reviews build more trust.
