What decides your position on Google Maps?

Google names three main factors: relevance (whether your profile matches the search), distance from the searcher and prominence (reviews, mentions, links, your website's rankings). We can't change the distance, so we work on the other two: accurate categories and services, a fully completed profile, reviews and your website.

Do you have to pay for a Google Business Profile?

No. A Google Business Profile is free, and you can't buy a position on Maps – only clearly labelled ads are shown for money. If someone calls claiming to be from Google and offers to verify or boost your profile for a fee, be careful: Google charges nothing for verifying a profile or for a higher position on Maps. You only pay us for the work done: under an SEO plan or for a one-off profile setup (from €70).

How is a Google Business Profile verified?

Google offers the verification method. Most often it's a short video showing your business location, tools or vehicles with your business name, and sometimes a code sent by phone or email. We help you prepare so that verification succeeds first time, but the decision rests with Google.

What should I do if my profile is suspended?

First, we find out why: most often it's keywords in the business name (e.g. "Car Service Kaunas Cheap" instead of the real name), a virtual address, or several profiles at the same address. We fix whatever breaks the guidelines and submit a reinstatement request through Google's official process. We can't guarantee the outcome, as the decision rests with Google.

Is local SEO suitable for a business in Vilnius?

Yes, the work is the same. If you're in Vilnius and want to discuss the plan in person, see the "SEO services in Vilnius" page – it explains how meetings work and how we handle Vilnius districts. In other cities we work remotely: your profile, website and reports can be discussed by phone or video call.

Local SEO and Google Business Profile optimisation

Local SEO means optimising your website and Google Business Profile so that customers searching nearby can find your business: on Google Maps, in the local results block and in searches that include a city name. Saitai.lt sets up your profile, directory listings, service and branch pages, and a routine for asking for reviews; the profile and directories are sorted out within 1 month. Local SEO is part of our SEO plans – from €199/month – and a one-off Google Business Profile setup without monthly SEO costs from €70.

Who it’s for

Customers choose you by distance: people often look for a hairdresser, dentist or car service with the words "near me" or a city name.
You work in Kaunas, Klaipėda, Šiauliai or a smaller town, and competitors come first on Maps.
You have several shops or branches in different cities, and each needs its own profile and page on your website.
You provide services at customers' homes or sites and want your profile to show your service area rather than your home address.
Your profile was created long ago and nobody looks after it: wrong opening hours, an old phone number, unanswered reviews.
You can't get your profile verified, it has been suspended, or Google shows two or more profiles for your business.

When it’s not the right fit

You only sell online and don't serve customers in person. A Google Business Profile is meant for businesses that meet their customers, so regular or e-commerce SEO is more useful for you.
You want your business to show up in a city where you have neither customer premises nor a service area – for example, by using a virtual office. That breaks Google's guidelines, so we don't create such profiles.
You want to buy reviews or have us write them. Google removes fake reviews and may restrict or suspend your profile.

Included

What you get

Profile audit

We check whether your profile is verified, whether there are duplicates, and whether the categories, opening hours, services, photos and description are right. We compare it with 3–5 competitors that Google Maps shows for your service.

Profile creation and verification

If you don't have a profile, we create one in your company's name and help you verify it. If a former employee or contractor controls the profile, we help you submit a request to regain access.

Categories, services and service area

We choose the categories that describe your business most accurately, list your services with short descriptions and set the towns or districts you serve. We keep your real business name – we don't stuff keywords into it.

Consistent company details

We make your name, address, phone number and opening hours consistent on your website, your profile and in Lithuanian business directories, as well as on Bing and Apple Maps. When the details match everywhere, search engines and artificial intelligence (AI) tools don't confuse your business with others.

Local signals on your website

On your contact page, we add your address as text, your opening hours and a link to the map; on service pages, the towns where you work. We add LocalBusiness structured data.

Branch pages

Each branch gets its own page with its address, opening hours and contact details, linked to its own profile. We don't create city pages that differ only by name.

Review request routine

We prepare a short request, a link and a QR code that you give to customers after the service, plus reply templates. We don't buy reviews, write them ourselves or offer discounts for them – Google's guidelines forbid this.

Report with local metrics

Every month you see profile impressions, calls, direction requests, website link clicks and the work completed.

Price

How much does local SEO cost?

Price from

€199/month

Local SEO is included in the monthly SEO plans, and a one-off Google Business Profile setup without monthly SEO costs from €70. For one location in one city, the Start plan (€199/month) with Google Business Profile setup is usually enough. If you have branches in several cities or are looking for customers across Lithuania, Business (€349/month) is the right fit, and for highly competitive fields, Premium (from €649/month).

Prices include all taxes – no VAT is added (we are not VAT-registered). The minimum contract term is 3 months. The final price depends on the project: we put it in the contract before work starts.

Get an exact price

What the price depends on

The number of branches and profiles.
Competition in your field and city: in a big city, dozens of businesses compete on Maps; in a smaller town, just a few.
The state of your profile: whether it's verified, whether there are duplicates, and whether Google has suspended it.
How many directories show outdated details – an old address, phone number or name.
Your website's technical condition, and whether new service or branch pages are needed.

Additional costs

Extra texts, e.g. for branch or service pages – from €29 per page.
Paid directory listings – only when agreed with you in advance; you pay the directory owner directly.
Professional photos of your branches – at the photographer's rates; photos taken on a phone are often enough.
Larger technical changes to your website – €30 per hour, or under a separate quote.

Timeline

How soon will you see local SEO results?

We sort out your profile, categories and directory listings within the first month. Changes on Maps sometimes show up after a few weeks, but stable results usually come after 3–6 months. A newly created or just-verified profile takes longer to show results.

1 month	profile setup or verification, categories, directory listings, LocalBusiness data	a properly set-up profile and its first metrics

Examples

Typical projects

Two profiles for one business

Situation: For example, a car service in Panevėžys has two profiles: an old one with a previous phone number and a new one. Reviews are split between the two, and some customers call a number that no longer works.
Solution: A request to Google to remove the duplicate profile, correct details in the main profile and in directories, and a contact page with the same details.
Result: One properly set-up profile, the right phone number everywhere and a clear review request.

Shops in several cities

Situation: For example, a building supplies retailer has shops in Kaunas, Alytus and Marijampolė. Its website has a single contact page, and the profiles were created at different times by different employees.
Solution: All profiles in one Google Business account, consistent names and categories, and separate shop pages with the address, opening hours and a link to the profile.
Result: A profile for each shop that local shoppers in that city can find, and separate metrics for each shop in the report.

A tradesperson without an office

Situation: For example, a heating system installer works in Klaipėda and the surrounding districts, doesn't receive customers, and his profile shows his home address.
Solution: A service-area business profile with no address shown, a list of the areas and services covered, photos of completed jobs, and a review request after each installation.
Result: A profile that meets Google's guidelines, without a public home address.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Regular SEO aims for higher rankings for service and product searches across the whole country. Local SEO targets searches where location matters: "… near me", "… in Kaunas". That's why the key elements are your Google Business Profile, consistent company details in directories, reviews and website pages about specific locations.
