Frequently asked questions
How many Map Pack clicks become leads?
It varies by industry. Service businesses often convert 5 to 20% of website clicks when the page matches intent and speed is good.
Do reviews create leads directly?
Reviews raise conversion rate and Map Pack prominence. Ask after successful jobs, never buy them.
Can Local SEO replace Ads?
Over time organic can replace a large share of paid local spend, but Ads still help for speed and overflow demand.
